Home description
This apartment created on the mezzanine floor of a house in a panoramic hillside position situated in a residential area near Vieste, on the charming Gargano promontory. The sea can be reached in just a few minutes by car as well as the small city of Vieste whose historic centre is perched on top of a rocky cliff with a shear drop down to the sea.
The Mezzanine's ground floor holds a living/dining room, a veranda (satellite TV) and a kitchen (oven, freezer, washing machine). There are also two double bedrooms (the beds can be separated in one) and one bathroom with bath. There is an equipped sun terrace which you access from an external staircase. There are mosquito nets on all the bedroom windows and there is a baby-bed available too.

The Puglia/Molise region
Apulia (Italian: Pulgia) is a region whose variety is its greatest wealth. The Gargano promontory plunges into the sea alongside famous resorts such as Rodi Garganico, Peschici and Vieste whereas inland there are pine, holm-oak and beech forests that lead to the Umbra forest. It is in Apulia that you will see the famous “trulli” of Alberobello, picturesque white houses with conical shaped roofs and of very ancient origins and then there is the Grotte of Castellana which is Italy’s largest spelaeologist centre.
The countryside offers very fascinating views which are sometimes sunny and barren, at other times there will be vineyards, almonds and olive groves. Apulia is not without its Roman, Norman and Angevin historic and artistic treasures either. In the heart of the Salento is Lecce, Florence’s Baroque rival – a city which is an authentic festival of Baroque and Roccoco styles. Visitors will be fascinated by its strange and fascinating golden colours which result from the Apulian stones.
Gargano / Vieste area
The property is only 2 km the sea, 3 km from the local grocery shops, 5 km from the historical Vieste city (which has all kinds of shops) where from the harbour you can take boats to the Tremiti islands (1 hour ferry ride). Furtheramore there is a 15-20 km Natural Reserve of the Umbra Forest (very interesting tour from a naturalistic point of view).
Local Museums of note include: The Museo Provinciale Sigismondo Castromediano (viale Gallipoli 28, Lecce) and the Museo di Paleontologia and Paletnologia (Via Vittorio Emanuele, Maglie).
Annual events of note include: The Festa di San Nicola - a procession in historical costumes which culminates in a large gathering in boats by the followers in boats to pray in front of the statue of the saint, Bari (7-9th May). The Holy week celebrations: large religious processions in Taranto (March/April/May – variable each year) and : Festival della Valle d'Itria, Martina Franca (July/August).
Restaurants that offer something special for Cuendet clients: Il Poeta Contadino (Via Indipendenza 21, Alberobello) and Osteria degli Spiriti (Via Battisti 4, Lecce).
Other suggested restaurants: Trullo d'Oro (Via Cavallotti 27, Alberobello) and Da Sergio (Corso Garibaldi 9, Otranto).
