Relax in Puglia

From first booking, the host, Patrizia was very welcoming. She gave us a lot of details about the area and all there was to do, places to visit and restaurant suggestions. We were a group of 5 couples. All bedrooms are a good size with private bathrooms though we did have to allocate rooms based on ease of access. The pool and garden are delightful and the outdoor table is super for a big group. We had a lovely relaxing time staying at The Old Mill

Great space

Friends and I finally got to enjoy some post-pandemic travel and this villa didn’t disappoint. We enjoyed great outdoor space and spacious bedrooms so that we could each have plenty of privacy. We loved the rustic feel of the place and Patrizia was always responsive to our questions. While the villa is a short drive to many locations, the town itself is SUPER quiet with not a lot happening. Would recommend for those looking for a peaceful retreat.

Fantastic!!

We had a large family reunion with 6 adults and 7 kids for two weeks and we absolutely loved this house and location! The house is so special (and so old!), but you can see and feel all of the love Patrizia put into the house. The outside area is lovely and spacious. Staying in Surano is a bit like going back in time - the older generation sitting outside their houses chatting to everyone who walks by and everything is closed for two hours in the afternoon. We were lucky enough to be there when a festival was on. The locals embraced us and made us feel so welcome even though we could not speak any Italian and there was no English in the town (or area)! Luckily, Patrizia is like a personal travel agent and suggests places to go every day and makes reservations whenever needed. There is so much to do in Puglia and near Surano that we could have stayed for several more weeks. We had so many highlights, but taking a boat trip from Castro and strolling around Otranto (both Patrizia’s suggestions) were probably to two most memorable! We will be back!

Delightful villa in the heart of Salento

Beautiful property full of Puglian charm but with all modern amenities. Very spacious accommodation and gorgeous outdoor garden and pool in a quite little village. One comment from the kids - they would have liked the WiFi to extend to the bedrooms. Our host Patrizia was very welcoming and helpful, suggesting places to visit and eat. Convenient food store, pizza takeaway and sports bar all within walking distance. All in all a wonderful vacation and sad to leave.

Terrific Easter break

We were two families that rented Patrizia's lovely house. The house is well equipped and maintained, stylishly decorated and comfortable. Open log fire was lovely on the chilly evenings however the heating is good. Very good wifi. Lovely garden with good size pool, lots of chairs and loungers. Large dining table and charcoal Weber BBQ under the orange trees. Patrizia is the best host we have ever had. She speaks excellent English and gave us many recommendations for areas to visit and places to eat. She was very happy to make the bookings and provide links for the satnav too. She answers messages very quickly. She even brought us a cocktail shaker when we asked for one!! Thank you Patrizia. The little sports bar, which is 2 mins walk away, is great for a breakfast pastry and coffee and an evening beer to watch a football match. Very friendly owners and staff. We recommend this lovely old mill

Beautiful Villa in traditional Salento town

We have just returned from Puglia and are missing Surano already! This villa has everything. It’s location is ideal, the town felt authentic and it’s residents were welcoming and friendly. Surano offers a fantastic restaurant with an enchanting outside eating area, a pizzeria, a corner shop and a bar cafe where we recommend trying the delicious Pasticciotto, traditional pastries from Salento. Nothing is too far away and we were easily able to explore the contrasting rocky and sandy coasts and the charming towns in between. Patrizia went above and beyond in helping us enjoy our stay, giving us advice about places to visit, recommending and booking restaurants and even reserving umbrellas and sun beds at a glorious beach. She was always on hand through WhatsApp to answer our questions. We were 4 adults and 5 teenage children and the villa offered plenty of space for us all. The villa is thoroughly clean and well equipped and the much needed air conditioning ( we were there during a heatwave) was exceptionally effective. We would not hesitate to recommend this villa and relish the thought of returning.

Mulino Santo Spirito exceeded all our expectations!

We were a family group of eleven people,aged from14 years to 72 years,and we all enjoyed the spacious interior and the pool in the citrus grove.Surano is a delightful, quiet old town. We had a wonderful week’s holiday,visiting both coasts-one sandy,one rocky.We appreciated especially the personal welcome by Patrizia and Roberto,who offered any help we may need during our stay.It was invaluable,as it was our first visit to the area-but hopefully not our last! Highly recommended.

Holiday with friends

We had a great time at the villa. The bedrooms are nicely set out & the pool was well used. Patrizia & Roberto were very helpful with info for visits. The region of Puglia is very easy to visit with coast lines very near. The villa was nicely situated in the village so its easy to shop locally for basics.

Une propriété unique et tellement agréable!

Nous avons séjourné dans la villa de Patrizia et Roberto dans cette région atypique qu'est le Salento dans les Pouilles. Chaque jour passé dans la maison nous faisait l'apprécier plus, très calme, très agréable, avec une atmosphère sereine se dégage des lieux qui se communique à tous! Nous étions deux familles et tous le monde était bien installé, la propreté de la maison impeccable!! En plus Patrizia donne de bons conseils pour visiter la région et de très bonnes adresses de restaurant! Buona La Bersagliera ! et Le Stanzie ! Bref un séjour réussi dans un environnement local bien marqué.

Amazing Holiday!!

We had the absolute best week at the house in Surano! The house itself was perfect - beautifully designed, super comfortable for families and with an amazing set up with the kitchen and outdoor area right next to each other so the kids could play. Patrizia was so helpful all throughout the week as well - helping us with dinner reservations, babysitters and recommending the best beaches for each day. She really made us feel welcome and helped us to get the most out of visiting this incredible corner of Italy. We will definitely be back!!! One of the best holidays we have had for a long time! Thank you Patrizia!!

Un'indimenticabile vacanza in famiglia

Abbiamo trascorso al molino Santo Spirito una splendida vacanza in famiglia. La struttura è bellissima, rinnovata di recente, funzionale, curata nei dettagli e idealmente concepita negli spazi per il piacere di condividere preservando al contempo privacy e tranquillità. Surano è un piccolo paese molto piacevole e situato in posizione centrale per scoprire l'intera regione del Salento, che ci ha incantato per la bellezza di mare, entroterra e villaggi. Patrizia e Roberto ci hanno accolto con grande professionalità, la comunicazione è sempre stata ottima e grazie ai loro consigli la nostra vacanza è stata ancora più bella. Un'esperienza da raccomandare totalmente.

Fantastisk vecka i Puglia

Vi var tre familjer (totalt 13 personer) som hyrde tillsammans en vecka i Juli. Villan är väldigt väl planerad med fina gemensamma sociala ytor för större sällskap att umgås i, och samtligt har varje familj helt separata rum/lägenheter med badrum, som ett litet boutique-hotell. Poolen var väldigt uppskattad av barn och vuxna både under dag och efter middagen i juli-hettan. Patricia är en väldigt hjälpsam och tillgänglig värd med tips för allt både i närområdet och övriga Puglia, ex hjälpte hon till med bokning av en fantastisk båttur med snorkling och utforskning av grottor och en mysig middag hemma hos en kock i byn. Byns läge gör att stränderna både i öst, väst och syd är nära. Lecce ligger nära med kultur, folkliv och fina restauranger.

We were not disappointed in any way. The well kept house offers everything we had hoped for. There was everything needed for a nice stay. The wonderful garden and the pool area was so tasteful and we just wanted to stay there all the time but we did find a couple of days to go on sight seeing in the exciting area. The very kind hosts Patrizia and her husband Roberto sincerely wanted the best for us and did everything beyond expectation to make our stay so memorable. We already want to go back .. thank you so much both of you .. all the best from a happy visiting family of 10 Danes.

Wir waren eine Gruppe von 11 Personen und das Haus bot genug Platz für alle. Es waren auch sämtliche erforderlichen Einrichtungen vorhanden. Der Aussenbereich mit dem Pool ist grosszügig und bietet mit den vielen Fruchtbäumen auch guten Schatten bei grosser Hitze. Patrizia als Gastgeber kann ich nur weiterempfehlen. Sie hat uns bei allen Angelegenheiten stets unterstützt und bei Fragen innert weniger Minuten geantwortet. Auch bei Reservationen und Restaurant-Tipps hat sie uns immer geholfen und uns auch im Vorfeld der Reise nützliche Informationen zukommen lassen.
