Photos and Description of the Basilicata vacation villa rental

Romantic traditional villa built into 1,000 year old town walls, vaulted ceilings, dramatic views, balconies, roof terrace, olive grove in unspoiled historic town. Beautifully furnished. Full kitchen. Read or write that book on a balcony looking over rolling wheat fields, olive and vine groves. Admire medieval frescoes in monastery next door or Manetgna's long-lost statue in the Cathedral. Taste Italy's best olive oil, sip the local wine and learn to make your own pasta. Visit the sassi in Matera or swim in the turquoise water of the Ionion sea in Italy's instep. Ski or ramble in Italy's largest national park, go horse riding or cycling or simply stroll through the quiet alley ways of Irsina to one of the local restaurants at dusk. Villa della Gioia offers the most romantic holiday in a secret corner of Italy where every stone whispers romance and every corner reveals history. The romance includes internet nearby, all mod cons, TV, video, linen, books and a welcoming bottle of vino.

Metaponto (40 mins) with fine sandy beaches, children’s activities, golf & the most complete Greek urban remains. Matera (30 mins), a Unesco World Heritage Site, its ancient cave dwellings used in films of Christ’s time. The first Crusade planned in Melfi, owned by Frederick II whose Irsina castle is now restored. Enjoy medieval splendour of Saints’ day festivals. Freshest food, finest dolce, choice wines from hospitable people in local farms, shops & street markets. Public swimming pools, karting, tennis, rock climbing, flying nearby
