Villa is very nice, this area is quiet. Private pool Saverio is friendly

We have just returned from a beautiful and peaceful week at Il Borgo della Querche. Saverio was brilliant when we checked in and had gathered lots of local information for us as well as a handy guide to the area. We stayed in the luxury villa and the small pool was a great size for a 4 year old and a 5 month old as well as being gated and safe for kids and there is lots of outside space including a nice dining area and bbq. Staying in mid September, it was starting to get quite cool in the evenings though and the villas downside is a lack of comfortable seating inside. We had children asleep in both bedrooms and so there was just a small kitchen table to sit out once they had gone to bed. The TV and armchairs are located in the bedrooms as well. It’s location is great for martina Franca being about a 10 minutes drive and we loved popping there for a drink in the evening and using the Wednesday market. Most of the key places in Valle D’itria are the other side of martina Franca so it does add time to each trip by we enjoyed the town so it seemed worth it. The air conditioning (if you need it as we didn't) is very modern and efficient and we were impressed with how clean the villa was. It could definitely do with more glasses, bowls and mugs etc as we were often running out before we had filled the dishwasher. Overall a lovely place to stay

A beautiful spot just outside Martina Franca. There are two villas on site which share the pool, little gym and jacuzzi. Our villa was very comfortable and well decorated. The pool was a welcome element in the July heat especially with kids and there is a nice covered seating and dining area on the patio. We rented the smaller of the two villas and it lacks a sitting room but in the summer with such fantastic outside space it is not really needed. The whole place is surrounded by wonderful gardens with herbs, flowers, olive and fruit trees, is is really quite idyllic even though you are in effect in a suburb of Martina Franca. The town in 10 minutes away and half of that is navigating the tiny lanes that lead to the villa. Ignore the ugly outer city, inside is a very elegant older town with beautiful squares, fantastic food, Opera and live music. Very handy for the coast (30 mins), Tatanto (25 mins) and the wonderful towns in the Itria valley. We also explored the Lecce and Grika areas with no problem. The hosts are very welcoming and helpful. Highly recommended. It’s a surprisingly magical place.

We stayed for 2 weeks at the end of August - also celebrating my daughters 11th birthday during our stay. The Trullo are amazing, beautiful and clean - the pools and jacuzzi fabulous. the setting is great - although the narrow lane is a little tricky!! Saverio and Antonella were perfect hosts and could not do enough to make our stay perfect. we would all recommend a stay 100% and some day hope to return
