2 Bedroom Apartment in San Vito dei Normanni

A peaceful stay in your high quality and fully equipped 'second home'. Immersed in a secluded garden with wonderful views of century old olive trees, pine garden and palm trees. You are at the heart of an ancient olive farm (you will be tasting our own produce). Diddy's Country is strategically well placed a short drive away from many beautiful towns. You are also right at the start of 'Trulliland' with the first trulli's to be seen after just a couple of kilometres from the house.
The flat occupies the whole first floor of a rural villa and you have exclusive access to all that is on offer in the gardens including the swimming pool, toddler pool, tennis, playground and the olive grove. The apartment is located on the first floor and boasts a huge terrace overlooking the estate. A custom made sun roof will keep it shady and the terrace is very romantic in the evenings. The flat consists of a master bedroom with a king size bed (180x195), a big wardrobe, a smart TV, a ceiling fan and a two-seater sofa.The second bedroom has two single beds that can be used as a double (twin), and there is a possibility to add a third single bed or a wooden cot bed. Alternatively the cot bed can also be placed in the master bedroom . The two bedrooms are off the fully equipped kitchen, which also features an air conditioning and a dining table. The terrace is the living room, hence the flat is not suitable for the winter although there is heating!

We can give you access to the wood-fired pizza oven and free wood, however, this needs to be pre-arranged with the house manager.

It will take you 15 minutes to drive to the local beaches of Torre Guaceto, Specchiolla or Torre Santa Sabina and many beautiful towns are within easy reach: the world-renowned 'white city' of Ostuni and the culinary centre of Ceglie Messapica are just 20 minutes drive away. The amazing villages of the 'trulli-shire' area of Valle D'Itria, such as Alberobello, Cisternino and Martina Franca, are also close-by. The remains of the Roman city of Egnazia and its interesting museum is also close-by. The historical and culinary treasures of the Bari, Brindisi and Lecce would surely warrant a day trip even if they are only up to 1 hour away. Otranto is another amazing town not to be missed and Santa Maria di Leuca, at the tip of the heel, will transport you directly to the Caribbean. Likewise the amazing waters and varied coastline of the Adriatic and Ionian seas, where crystalline waters contrast with either golden sandy beaches or rough and unspoiled rocky spots!
Discover the cultural and culinary attractions of the coast, Valle d'Itria and Salento and don't forget San Vito's own treasured food specialised food shops such as the 'Slow Food' rated Caseificio Lanzilotti (cheeses and mozzarellas) where you can find the wastes and most succulent choice of mozzarellas and the likes you have ever seen.

Summary: We had the most amazing stay at Diddys’s Country. The flat was perfect for our family of four, and everything you could possibly need was provided for - including many high quality designer items. Our children particularly appreciated the toys that were provided and we liked that we didn’t need to bring any of the baby paraphernalia with us on the plane! The facilities on site are fantastic, and we could have easily stayed at home all week. The pool was stunning, and our children also really enjoyed the carts, little park and mud kitchen. The house is close to some really interesting and beautiful places, and we really appreciated all the handy hints on the best local shopping from Alexandra. Communication with Alexandra was fantastic throughout, as was with Pamela whilst in Italy. We could not have asked for better hosts and they have created a very special place where everything has been thought of. We do hope to return!

Summary: We had a great stay at Diddy’s Country in the two bedroom apartment for a week in August 2017. The hosts have created a welcoming, beautiful, fun and relaxing place, with exceptional attention to detail. All the furnishings and fittings are excellent quality, and the new swimming pool is very beautiful and a joy to swim in. The apartment has a comfortable double bedroom, a bed with bunk beds, a sit-in well equipped kitchen, a modern shower room, and a lovely terrace with seating. Everything was incredibly clean. We had good contact via message with the owner Alexandra, and in person with Pamela who looks after the property and couldn't have been friendlier. The hosts’ generosity extended to Nespresso pods to last our whole week’s stay, charcoal and wood for the BBQ, and being able to help ourselves to ripe fruit and vegetables growing in the garden. Pamela even lit the fire in the outdoor pizza oven for us one day so we could try our hand at making our own pizzas. But Diddy’s Country’s major selling point is its provision for children. Our 5 year old daughter had a brilliant time swimming in the pool, riding around on the go carts, playing in the outdoor ‘mud kitchen’ and jumping on the trampoline. Also playing with the trucks, lego and games indoors. This goes so far beyond the usual high chair and plastic plates level of child friendliness! We felt like we had the facilities of a whole campsite or hotel complex, but for just two properties: our apartment and the downstairs 5 bedroom villa - an incredible luxury! The location feels very rural, but is only a couple of kilometres from a nearby town and good supermarket. Its around a 20 minute drive to beaches. To be honest, we hardly left, as there was so much to enjoy at Diddy’s Country.

Summary: We had a wonderful time at Diddy's Country. The apartment is beautifully designed and equipped and is very comfortable. It had everything we needed, plus home produced olive oil and local pasta. The terrace is a great spot to sit outside, and the garden and the grounds are lovely, with fresh figs, tomatoes and herbs. We enjoyed trips to the nearby beaches, the caves at Castallana, and towns such as Polignano and Lecce. We also liked the pasta shop, with its many different varieties of fresh and dried pasta, and the cheese shop, with local specialities, in the nearby town. Alexandra, Alessandro and their family were fantastic hosts and we would recommend a stay here.

Summary: If places of one's soul ever exist, surely this is one of them. Its peaceful location, where the garden gives way to the olive tree grove without a break in continuity, the elegant simplicity of the villa and its secluded position instil a sense of calm and well-being. From this good country retreat it's easy to reach the nearest village, the dunes and the sea, as well as the most picturesque places of Puglia. Diddy's country has a perfect position for always fascinating itineraries among the Byzantine, Norman and Baroque arts, but also for refined music events and flokloristic and gastronomical discoveries. If you meet the people who made Diddy's Country so snug and enjoyable, you will understand why this place has a soul.

Summary: Diddy's country is not just a very nice villa, with every comfort, beautifully located in the heart of the Puglia countryside. It's a place where I find everything that makes me feel well, thanks to its wonderful view of the flowers and of the olive trees surrounding the house as far as the eye can see, but also to the nice sandy beach and the transparent sea that can be easily reached from there. I enjoy spending my days at the sea side, and then relax in the fresher air of the countryside. This make my pace slow down so much that it is hard to decide to devote some time to the visit of the nearest towns, and there are plenty of, though! I always enjoy visiting Alberobello's “Trulli”, the white hill of Ostuni, Oria (with its “Palio” horse race in August), Grottaglie with its ceramic's laboratories, Cisternino (worth of a tour in the evening to enjoy the food specialties in its peculiar restaurants!), just to mention some of them. There's not a better place to recharge my batteries during the holidays!

Summary: The flat proved to be a perfect place for our holiday: a charming and relaxing spot in the wonderful Apulian countryside, that simply enchanted us. The apartment is handy, very well managed and clean (and fresh too!); from its terrace you can admire the beautiful garden full of ancient olive trees that surround the villa. Strategically situated, from there we could easily reach beautiful beaches (only 10 min. by car) as well as the most beautiful and interesting historical cities and sites, such as Lecce, Ostuni, Brindisi. Moreover, the amazing tennis court placed inside the garden gave us the possibility to just relax and have some fun even when we decided not to move from there. Last but not least, Alessandro and Alexandra are the most welcoming and easy-going hosts: you can't possibly imagine better ones.

Summary: We had an amazing week at this property in August 2013. The weather, the landscape, the beaches and the home itself were warm, beautiful and thoroughly inviting. The first floor apartment is very comfortable and provided everything we needed as a family of five for a memorable and fun family vacation. The roof-top deck for relaxing in the sun and enjoying the birds-eye views was fantastic. And, our kids loved playing tennis and splashing in the above-ground swimming pool. The grounds are stunning with huge palm trees, fruit trees and ancient olive trees. Our hosts made the trip perfect. They are so welcoming and incredibly knowledgeable about the local area. We will be back!
