This typical old villa was once the summer residence of a rich family. Now Villa Basso provides Puglia vacation rentals with a wonderful view of the sea.

Forty years ago, this beautiful old house was the set of the movie The High Bright Sun with Dirk Bogarde, with Puglia standing in for the movie’s setting of Cyprus. Now the house has been restored with the care and the passion that only those who love a building can provide .
The villa is equipped with every comfort and furnished with taste and style.
Two apartments for rent .
The ground floor one ( UP TO 4 PERSONS ) has a spacious and light-filled kitchen with a big stone fireplace. There is a living room and an upper floor accommodating the double bedroom. Two comfortable single sofa beds in the lounge area complete the sleeping arrangements. There is a large bathroom with a shower and plenty of sunlight.
The main entrance to these Puglia vacation rentals leads into the apartment from a very large terrace overlooking the sea.

Villa Basso has another very nice upper apartment ( UP 2 ) , the ideal place for HONEYMOONERS (or for those who wish they are ) : air conditioning, large bedroom with armchairs, bathroom with hand-painted tiles, cosy kitchen in a little tower. This sits in the attic of the house and might be rented together with the ground floor apartment if you are two couples or more than four people. - PLEASE ASK FOR OTHER PICTURES.
The villa is in an enchanting and tranquil spot in the heart of the Gargano National Park, easily reachable from the main road, and not so far from other tourist destinations such as Vieste, Peschci, San Giovanni Rotondo (a religious site) Monte S.Angelo, and the Amalfi Coast (two hours away). The nearest beaches are only 1km from these Puglia vacation rentals

Local Area Details

There are places which, as a result of their history, position or the exceptional events which occured there, are shrouded in a veil of almost tangible sacrality pervading every nook and cranny. The Gargano is a “holy� land, a much-visited venue for some of the most important religious gatherings on a world-wide scale. The apparition of the Archange Michael on Mount Gargano is without doubt the core of religious experience in this land. Thousands of pilgrims travel tu visit the cold, dark grotto which Michael chose as is earthly dwelling. But is not only the cult of St. Michael which exalts the religious spirit of this area – there are the many churches, set against breath-taking backdrops, such as the Convent of St. Matthew in San Marco il Lamis. In more recent times, the presence of Padre Pio, who lived in San Giovanni Rotondo, has provided a strong attraction for millions of people. But it is the Gargano as a whole which expresses its divine beauty in every time and space.
