We spent the New Years week in the beautifull and warm house of Maria and Andrea in Poggiardo. A great winter stay in the historic center (on the main Piazza) with choice of bars, shops, hairdressers, ... within walking distance.
The weather was great, sky steel-blue, sun shining every day (were we lucky or is this Puglia-winter?) and we spent several hours trying to get a tan on the rooftopterrace.
The house is a spacious and beautiful old palazzo, restored in a refined way with perfect artcrafts-finishings. The palazzo offers all comfort, with several bathrooms, equiped kitchens, cupboards, classic and authentic furniture which suits perfectly to the style of the house ... It's a pleasure to find a place where as well the interior, the objects, the decoration, the chocolats and bottle, as the towels and the sheets, ... all meet the same standard of luxury in every single detail which is, believe me so rare...
The recommandations for restaurants turned out to be delicious, and New Years-eve - we were kindly invited in the ground floor loft - was an unforgettable party. That loft as the rest of the building, has been beautifully restored,and has a great fireplace.
The swimming pool and garden look very welcoming and quiet for warmer months...
Thanks Maria and Andrea, hope we'll meet again soon.
