About this house rental
Villa Fumarola is a wonderful place all year round which offers lots of things to do for the whole family. The pool is open from mid-April through October. The central garden and pool area are shared with the other house on the plot (a traditional Trullo which sleeps 4 people). Garden, pool and pool area (with large shaded dining area) are very generously sized, in order to offer enough space to each party, in case both houses are occupied. The pool is 10 x 10 meters with ample surrounding area. Each of the two houses has its own outside dining area and barbecue. We are confident we can recommend this property to anyone, including families with small children (our own kids grew up here). The property is a tranquil, safe and child-friendly environment, the pool is protected by a fence. The garden has a great variety of fruit and olive trees, some hundreds of years old. There are many attractions in the area: Lots of little towns with wonderful historical centers, Unesco heritage sites like Alberobello (just 15 minutes by car) and Matera, Lecce with its amazing baroque, lots of beaches on both coasts, countless typical restaurants for all budgets...Upon arrival you will find your complimentary Welcome Kit with useful information about the area, such as restaurants, places to see, things to do etc. We have spent so much time exploring this enchanting area and love sharing our findings and insight with our guests. It is our absolute priority to make out guests' vacation here a truly special one. The property is self-catering and accepting our guests' privacy is paramount. But in case you would like our help with anything at all, we will be more than happy to assist. Whether it's tips for restaurants, horseback riding for all levels, discovering the countryside by bike, picking your favorite beach out of hundreds of miles of coastline, exploring the before mentioned amazing towns and villages, learning all about local wines, olive oil and other local could go on and on...Fact is you are spoilt for choice here and one vacation won't be enough to take it all in, so we will be delighted to help you plan your bespoke ideal vacation and make it a truly special one. This is how we intend our role as hosts. Looking forward to welcoming you!
The Villa, a recent build, has been designed to interpret the original style of the local architecture without trying to look like an ancient building. This is expressed in the small windows towards the front and the inclined outer walls. It is very spacious and light. All bedrooms have their own access to the garden. Equipped with aircondition and underfloor-heating.
Our commitment: Host responsibly in order to promote a more sustainable way of travelling.

We stayed here with our two children (13 and 10) while friends rented the neighbouring Trullo with their own two kids. We were looking for somewhere which gave both families our own space but also meant we could all spend time together - and this couldn’t have been more perfect. Both properties were beautiful, the larger ‘Casa’ was so spacious and although it’s more modern than the Trullo it felt full of character and charm. Spacious bedrooms and two beautiful bathrooms. The kids particularly liked the indoor/outdoor lounge area. The pool was beautiful and spacious with a fantastic al fresco dining area and the gardens were just lovely. The location was perfect for us too, less than 10 minutes drive into either Locorotondo or Martina Franca, both fantastic places for a daytime or evening wander. We loved our week here and hope to one day be back!

I cannot fault this wonderful house, in this wonderful part of Italy. We had particularly wanted to stay near Martina Franca, where we had been before and loved, and this house turned out to be the perfect property in an ideal location for not only Martina F, but also the various other places nearby we wanted to visit.
The house is beautifully designed, with comfy beds, air con, lovely eating areas, wonderful bathrooms and a splendid pool. There is even an orchard opposite the house. When something went wrong in the house, the very friendly owners were immediately on hand to help and put it right, and it was such a bonus for us that the house comes with a stack of great toys for young kids. Highly recommended.

Thank you so much Ina and Sandro for a perfect week away as a family of four. With two small children we were looking for a family friendly villa and this ticked all the boxes and more. Ina made sure we had everything we needed from the get go (cots, highchair, baby bath, potty etc etc) and the villa had so many great toys for the kids to keep them more than entertained throughout the week! The pool space and garden is fantastic and we felt an extra level of security with the pool being fenced off and the boys loved the swings and slide. The villa itself was perfect, very well furnished and lovely and clean. We have already recommended it to friends (who have since booked for next month!) and we would love to come back and stay again. Ina was also wonderful in recommending restaurants and organising a lovely babysitter (Antonella) for us one evening. Thanks so much, we loved every minute! The Ferber Family
