What a beautiful place! The pool is amazing and our children loved it so much. The apartments are fantastic. Upstairs the apartment has a private terrace that is great for a wine under the stars.

We stayed in this gorgeous place and it really is something special. Sometimes you find an Airbnb gem and this is one of those places! The apartment is wonderful – stone vaulted ceilings together with tasteful furnishings. The pool is perfect for adults and children alike. I could not recommend this place highly enough!

A HISTORY
The district “Afra”, from which the farmhouse takes its name, in the second half of the 18th century, was a sub-fiefdom of the “State of Squinzano” and derives its name from the arid nature of the land. The farmhouse, once owned by Princess Marianna Filomarino, today preserves the authenticity of the vaulted ceilings and floors of Lecce stone.
