It includes wi-fi, a flat TV and a charming second floor terrace.
Matera, a town nearby, is the 2019 European capital of culture! The perfect place to visit an experience the Mediterranean and Puglian culture.
The Villla is next to the town of Mottola: A small town on a hill with an ancient medieval center. You can find all types of services, shops, supermarkets, banks, bars, restaurants and churches on this small town (3 min away by car)
The surroundings: Alberobello, an Unesco world heritage site, is just an hour away from the house. Other impressive cultural sites include the medieval legacy of Castel Del Monte in Andria, the beautiful cathedral of Trani, or the charming old center of the port-city of Taranto. Many other worthwhile destinations are: Barletta, Ruvo di Puglia, Martina Franca, Matera, Monopoli, Ostuni (all between 30 min to 2 hour away).
Natural sites: The "Parco Regionale della Terra delle Gravine" is just minutes away from the property, good for sightseeing the natural landscape of the region with the archaeological sites in between the calcareous rock formations. Farther away (about an hour away) you can deep yourself into the grand caves "Grotte di Castellana" or even go for a safari at the Fasano Zoo.
Beaches (golf and horse riding): The nearest beach is Castellaneta Marina, at about 15-20 minutes' drive on the Ionean coast. A beautiful Mediterranean beach, preserving its natural dune system, and where you can find horse riding and golf amenities close by. On the East, the Adriatic coast is just 40 min away, filled with many other turquoise water beaches.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Cristina Sansonetti
I currently live in Rome. The Villa is my holiday paradise
Why they chose this property
The property holds a lot of memories for the family. It has been used as a barn (1888), a house and for the relatively recent years (last 40 years) as holiday villa. All the gardens, pool area and house extensions have been constructed with a lot of care and devotion. We have transformed the arid landscape of the region into a small oasis. Many of the summer memories of the family rely on this beautiful piece of land. We hope our guest enjoy it as much as we hope to pass it on to our next generation of the Sansonetti family.
What makes this property unique
The house has a unusual architecture and a deep family history. The pool area and gardens have a very romantic setting. Many local brides and grooms have posed for their wedding pictures in our villa
