19th Century architecturally unique luxury house 15 Minutes drive from beaches

Bagnolo is a simple working village in the fertile Salento area of Puglia; benefiting from an artisan patisserie/ ice-cream parlour, three restaurants/ pizzerias, two simple bars, a butcher, two mini supermarkets and a pharmacy. It's well placed to explore the southern part of the Salento.
The quality and price of the food is very good wherever you go. During July and August concerts, religious, cultural and food festivals take place every evening across the region. In a two week period it would not be difficult to visit a different beach every day within a maximum of 30 minutes drive, the closest being the white beaches of Alimini, only 15 minutes away.
If you are looking for a relaxing time in an architecturally unique setting free from tourists then please consider my house for your holiday. I do my utmost to make your stay of the highest quality and actually take genuine pleasure in knowing that my guests discover this amazing place and it's people.

Great place to stay
We had a wonderful week with fabulous weather. The property was perfect, hidden behind a little piazza and within a short walk of all the amenities. It was a great base for the area and the local beaches and towns were fascinating with wonderful food. We would highly recommend both the area and the property. Alex was an excellent host checking in with us to make sure all was ok. Thank you for allowing us to enjoy your home.

Love it
We fell in love with Bagnolo from the first moment when we arrived to the main piazza.It has the magic calming atmosphere. There is everything what you need:small supermarket,two bars,post,pasticceria with fresh delicious pastries,nice restaurant(Toto)... It's close to the beaches.small villages,15 min. drive to Otranto and 30 min. to Lecce. Alex's house is in the center of the village,two minutes from main piazza.It's beautiful ,clean and comfortable.The roof terrace is really nice for relaxing and evening aperitivo. The communication with Alex was great and easy.He gave us plenty of recommendations for a nice local restaurants,beaches and places to see. We can't wait to be back :) Highly recommended!

Fantastic Place to Stay
We enjoyed our stay very much. The home is beautiful and we enjoyed the authentic character of this tiny town. The place has everything in it that you can want and has a generous and thoughtful layout designed for both social moments and period of thought and relaxation. Our hosts were both relaxed and attentive to our needs and I can heartily recommend it as a place to stay. As for the proximity to the bells, it was a source of some amusement!

Perfect
We enjoyed a week with our family in this beautifully restored house. The roof terrace is great for relaxing/ dining/ listening to the surprisingly chirpy church bells. We were grateful for the efficient air conditioning on the hottest days. Bagnolo is a quiet village, away from tourists, but has everything you need - pastry/ice cream shop/ bar/ supermarket/ post office/ vans selling produce/ restaurants all on or near the main square by the house. There was always space to park in the small square by the house. Le Tre Forchette restaurant has a beautiful garden to dine out in. Alex was a very attentive host both before and during our stay,- easily contactable by phone or email - providing extensive information about the house and the area. We enjoyed visits to the towns of Otranto, Gallipoli, Lecce, Maglie and the beaches at Alimini, Porto Badisco, Castro Marina and Santa Cesarea terme. In short, a week wasn't long enough - fantastic house, great food, great beaches, beautiful towns. Thank you Alex!

Das Haus von Alex war persönlich eingerichtet nicht die übliche Ikea Norm Möblierung. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt.Einzig die Beleuchtung in den Räumen wäre verbesserungsfähig ( vernünftige Nachttischlampen zum lesen zb )

Séjour dans un village du Salento
La maison d'Alex est un très bel exemple d'architecture villageoise locale, les voûtes en pierre sont magnifiques ! La communication avec Alex est top, tout est très clair et la maison est très bien équipée notamment pour la cuisine. Le village de Bagnolo est par ailleurs très bien situé pour explorer toute la région. L

Perfektes Haus für den Individualurlaub der Familie
Was für tolles Haus für den Urlaub mit der Familie! Wir waren zu viert da; aber auch für sechs Personen ist bestens Platz. Die Lage mitten im Städtchen hat sehr viel Charme; die Nächte auf der Dachterrasse sind magisch. Die Ausstattung erfüllt in jeder Hinsicht der Erwartungen und übertrifft sie in vielen Bereichen. Wichtig im Sommer mit bis zu 42 Grad ist auch, dass tatsächlich alle Räume (außer das Bad) separat klimatisierbar sind. Das erhöht das Wohlbefinden und schafft die Chance, unnötigen Energieverbrauch zu vermeiden. Der Kontakt mit dem Vermieter Alex war immer gut und schnell, sehr informativ und sehr nett. Vielen Dank!

Bellissimo. Tutto perfetto!
In questa estate di covid-19 siamo stati i primi ospiti italiani in un appartamento che di solito viene dato in affitto a inglesi. Appartamento con una sua personalità, l'arredamento è curato e personalizzato (no ikea finalmente!!), tante stanze, una corte interna una terrazza dove è possibile mangiare alla sera con vista sui tetti e sulla chiesa del paese. Ottima assistenza di Alex prima e durante il soggiorno, con consigli su dove mangiare, sulle migliori spiagge da vedere nelle vicinanze. Posizione fantastica per le spiagge di sabbia e di roccia (15 minuti la bella spiaggia di sabbia di Alimini) e per Otranto (25 minuti). Uno dei migliori appartamenti nei quali abbiamo soggiornato in Puglia in uno dei paesini più piccoli e molto accoglienti. Un gioiellino. Ci torneremo. Bravo Alex!

Wondeful place, perefect host
We, two adults and three kids, had a wonderful time at an authentic and well maintained house. If you are looking for a real South-Italian village (church, two coffee bars, everything for daily life in walking distance, nobody speaking English:)), if you still want to explore superb beaches (just 15 MIn by car) and the entire Apulia-region, this is the place to stay. Alex is a very mindful and attentive host, easy to communicate with and most helpful. I highly recommend this place!!

Inmitten des Salento: Ruhe, Erholung, Ursprünglichkeit und luxuriöser Chrame - Extraklasse!
Wir waren 10 Tage in diesem wunderschönen Haus in Bagnolo del Salento - allein der Ortsname erweckte bei uns Träume - und so war auch der Urlaub - traumhaft schön! Das Haus ist sehr gut eingerichet, die Betten sehr bequem, die Küche sehr großzügig zum Kochen, die Dachterrasse sehr schön um Abends den Sternenhimmel über dem Dorf zu geniessen, das Restaurant um die (Haus-)Ecke von bester Qualität. Hervorzuheben ist die schnelle und reibungslose Kommunikation mit Alex, dem Besitzer - er hat uns zahlreiche Tips gegeben und auch zu einem lokalen Kochkurs verholfen, der sehr gut war. Schöne Strände wie die Baia Turqua sind in 20 Min. zu erreichen, ebenso Otranto, Galatina - es wird einem garantiert nicht langweilig und Bagnolo war unser Ruhepol. Wir kommen bestimmt wieder! Vielen Dank für Alles, mille Grazie :-)

Exclusiv wohnen mitten im Salento
Alex ist ein hervorragender Gastgeber. Die K ommunikation mit ihm funktionierte zu jeder Zeit hervorragend. Die Bilder des Inserates entsprechen genau der Realität. Wir betraten das Haus und fühlten uns sofort zu Hause, sehr geschmackvoll und liebevoll bis ins Detail. Erwähnenswert erscheint uns noch die unglaubliche Hilfsbereitschaft und Freundlichkeit der Menschen im BdS. Wir können die Unterkunft zu 100 Prozent weiterempfehlen. Ankommen, sich wohlfühlen und am liebsten bleiben!

Wunderschöne Wochen in Bagnolo del Salento
Wir verbrachten zu viert 2 Wochen in der Ferienwohnung von Alex Di Re in Bagnolo. Schon im Vorfeld hat uns Alex mit allen nötigen Informationen versorgt und darüber hinaus mit vielen interessanten Zusatzinformationen für unseren Urlaub . Die Wohnung selbst ist sehr schön hergerichtet, so wie in der Beschreibung, die Fotos geben einen sehr guten Überblick über die Wohnsituation vor Ort. Die Lage der Wohnung innerhalb Bagnolos ist ideal. Direkt neben der Kirche liegend, erreicht man innerhalb von 2 Minuten eine sehr sympatische Bar (für ein italienisches Frühstück oder auch abends für einen Aperetiv), einen kleinen Supermarkt, die Restaurants (Tipp: Restaurant TOTO, 50 Meter, gleich um die Ecke). Bagnolo selbst liegt etwa 15 Minuten mit dem Auto vom Meer, d.h. man braucht zwar immer das Auto um dort hin zu kommen, den großen Touristenströmen entgeht man aber komplett, was wir als sehr angenehm empfunden haben, zumal die Leute in Bagnolo sehr freundlich und ausgesprochen hilfsbereit sind. Etwas italienisch ist allerdings von Vorteil. Wir haben den Aufenthalt sehr genossen und uns sehr schnell heimisch gefühlt. Die Kommunikation mit Alex während des Aufenthalts, falls nötig, war sehr schnell, unkompliziert und immer mit einem Schuss Humor. Wir können die Wohnung und auch alles andere sofort bedingungslos weiterempfehlen.
