These villas below work brilliantly for family holidays from May through September, and the southernmost properties with heated pools can also be considered for October half-term. Details of your home-from-home will be important to you, and are important to us, so ask us about floorplans, access to local shops & restaurants, whether the stairs are toddler-friendly, whether the swimming pool is fenced, and what temperature the pool is heated to in the cooler months…we never tire of the details.

Southern Europe is our favourite destination at May half-term...and Puglia tops the list. It'll be warm enough to swim but not yet blisteringly hot. Think blue skies framing olive groves, quiet beaches, charming towns and authentic, rustic Med cuisine.
