This beautifully presented private home, sleeping up to 8 guests (and an extra two children) across six bedrooms, is a perfect solution for extended families or a group of friends traveling together and requiring a little extra privacy from one another. Villa Nancy enjoys an enviable location tucked away in the Pugliese countryside amid 3 hectares of private olive groves and orchards. Having all the benefits of village life of Sicarico close at hand, with a local bar, shop and restaurant within a 7-minute walk, two trulli and 16th Century Masseria are a real find! Both Brindisi and Bari airports are reached in approximately one hour, while of historical interest is Castellana Grotte (6km) and renowned UNESCO site Alberobello, both a short drive away. The area’s coast and stunning sandy beaches begin at Lido Colonia and can be reached in approximately 15 minutes. With three separately presented buildings all offering sleeping accommodation, two with ceiling fans, the first trullo has a double bedroom with a mezzanine including an optional sleeping area (as long as the number of villa guests does not exceed 8 adults and 2 children) and an open plan kitchen with lounge/dining area. The second trullo is adjacent and has two double bedrooms. Finally, the detached main farmhouse opposite has three bedrooms consisting of one twin and two singles arranged over two floors and a large open-plan kitchen and lounge/diner. The style is refined yet unpretentious and one can tell immediately on entering it has foremost been a home rather than renovated for the rental market. It therefore feels genuinely inviting and is also very well equipped for the perfect stay. The outdoor is heavenly, with a huge amount of laid to lawn stonewalled garden space. The pool (14m x 7m) is in a slightly elevated position and with a small basketball pavement and table tennis where younger guests can easily find their entertainment. There’s also a gorgeous eating out area for guests to come together and perfect for those long lazy lunches.
