La Casetta nel Cortile de Wonderful Italy

Our ‘Casetta nel Cortile’ is located in one of the most important squares of Cisternino, a very lively place perfect for those who love hanging out and wish to have fun, thanks to the huge number of lounge bars, bistros and restaurants located in the area.
It is a detached house which is accessible through a very characteristic alley; located on the first floor, it is necessary to climb about 20 steps to access. The house is tastefully furnished with brightly colored items and furnishings (like the red kitchen) in contrast with the white walls that make the whole house fresh and airy.

It consists of a living room with 2 sofa beds and a TV, an open kitchen with an oven, an induction hob, a table and chairs; from here you can access the first balcony equipped with a table and two chairs with a characteristic view over the square.
The sleeping area is located on the upper floor, accessible through a flight of stairs, and is equipped with a queen-size bed and a bathroom with sanitary and shower stall. From the bedroom you access the second balcony, which also has a table with two chairs and overlooks the square.

*The ceiling on the upper floor is lower than on the first floor; not recommended for very tall people.

We also offer to our guests truly authentic experiences to live like a local. If interested, contact us and we will be more than happy to help you out designing an unforgettable holiday to discover Italian beauties.

Cisternino is one of the most beautiful italian hamlets, nestled in Valle d’Itria. The most valuable sites are the historic centre with the Norman-German Tower and the Church of San Nicola, the so called “Chiesa Madre”, the rural area and its ancient Trullos, all around. Architecture, culture, social identity and food are all traits of this town, in particular the white houses, alleys, yards and the typical roasted “bombette” and wine.
