We Just had a one night stay but wanted more. Delightful pastoral, quiet setting in a olive grove and active garden. Stunning pool. Equally stunning rooms with large shower. Exquisitely decorated. The highlight was the meal that Lesley prepared: each course was lovingly and thoughtfully prepared and Ron and Lesley's company was a real pleasure. Would highly recommend.

Beautiful large room, great bathrooms, free wifi, a swimming pool to die for! Location is perfect for visiting all the sites, the beach & more. Do ask Lesley to book the best tables for you at recommended restaurants...they were all fabulous. Pizza night was fun too, Ron is very entertaining, plus plenty of free flowing wine! We'll be returning July... More

We have just returned from Villa Magnolia after a three night stay with friends as part of a Birthday trip. The Villa itself is delightful. Beautifully restored, clearly with passion and dedication. There are only four rooms and we had three of them with the last one being used by a lovely couple from Reading. The rooms have everything you... More

My wife and I have just returned from our second trip to Villa Magnolia. We first stayed at the Villa some 3 years ago and found Lesley and Ron to be great hosts. It seems that time has not changed that and it was like going back to stay with friends (in fact I'd say we have become good friends),... More

Villa Magnolia is a hidden gem... Lesley and Ron have done a fantastic job with the house which is unique and luxurious.

For once, the pictures are true...and more than that. Upon entering the Villa Magnolia, it's is easy to leave behind everything you wish to forget about and enjoy a couple of days of perfect peace and quiet. Ron and Lesley are perfect hosts and they have created a beautiful villa and gardens. When we were there, we were also invited... More

Leslie and Ron are fantastic! They have a beautiful villa in the beautiful farm country of Puglia. The villa is very comfortable and well restored with great taste that is well matched to the traditional style here. You won't regret booking your stay with villa magnolia.

My husband and I have always stayed at hotels but during our recent trip to Italy we planned three days in the Puglia area. After looking through travel books we decided to book the Villa Magnolia and venture away from the luxuries of a hotel. What a wonderful surprise, the Villa has all of the amenities of a hotel and...

I would highly recommend the Villa Magnolia to anyone who hates being part of the crowd. The love and care with which Lesley and Ron have restored the villa and created a place where guests feel both pampered and completely at home make it somewhere very special to spend time escaping it all. I just wish I’d had more time... More
