About this property
Refined house with a large patio overlooking the expanse of olive trees, outdoor stereo system
The "lamia" (typical dwelling) is located in the renowned Valle d'Itria, at 350 m asl, in the north of Salento, in Puglia. The Valley is well known all over the world for the presence of the trulli, recognized as UNESCO heritage. The house is located in a dominating position, immersed in the beautiful and relaxing countryside full of olive trees, fruit trees and prickly pears. We are in Cisternino, just minutes from Alberobello, Martina Franca, Ostuni, Locorotondo, Lecce, places rich in historical monuments, with breathtaking views. Nearby are also the Zoosafari di Fasano and the Castellana Caves. At 15 minutes there are the endless beaches of the Adriatic Sea, among which the natural reserve of Torre Guaceto stands out for its particular beauty. In 50 minutes you reach the Ionian Sea, with crystal clear water and Caribbean beaches. The food and wine aspect is one of the best known features of the area and you can enjoy the many delights of land and sea in very nice restaurants. Taking a holiday in Lamia Stellata means being able to relax in a bucolic and refined atmosphere, with fine finishes, both in summer and in winter, and enjoy the magic of the villages of Valle d'Itria and their food and wine specialties.

About the host
Hosted by Chiara
Hi there ! My name is Chiara and I am from the so-called "green heart of Italy", Perugia. Since I was young, I have been working as a marketing consultant (Nestlè, Cinecittà). I have been married to Sandro for more than 30 years now. We have two children, Carolina, 24, and Francesco, 20. We are cheerful people, we love travelling and exploring new cultures. Our hearts, though, are always at Lamia Stellata !
Why they chose this property
After a short holiday in Puglia years ago, me and my husband fell in love with the countryside of the region and the magical atmosphere of Valle d'Itria. We then decided to own this beautiful property, surrounded by centuries-old olive trees. We wanted to enjoy peaceful breaks from the city and to embrace the beauty of the bucolic life.
What makes this property unique
The villa perfectly suits for holidays with your partner, family or friends. You can enjoy amazing Italian "aperitivo" at the sunset, with background music, on the huge patio. Or a pleasant breakfast with the hectares of olive trees in front of you, as well. The barbecue - shaped as a "trullo" - allows you to have incredible meals. The stone-made arch ceiling inside the villa is special, and keeps a pleasant temperature, even in summer days.
