A Hidden Treasure in Gravina di Puglia – Domus Decclesiis • B&B Location: Gravina di Puglia was a total surprise. We had never heard of it before, just stopped on our way from the Amalfi Coast to Puglia — and ended up discovering a town that felt like the lesser-known sister of Matera, with just as much ancient charm and history. • B&B Description: Domus Decclesiis is unforgettable. We’ve never seen anything like this — a huge room made from an old stable attached to a villa, designed with incredible taste and thoughtful detail. It was so spacious it could easily host a party, yet still felt cozy and inviting. The bathroom was big and beautiful, the kitchen was stocked with a variety of foods for all diets, and the design and cleanliness were absolutely top-tier. The bed and pillows were very comfortable, Wi-Fi was excellent, and we had access to a private free garage on-site. Located on a ground floor.5-7 minutes walking distance from the town center. • Customer Care: Although we didn’t get to meet the lovely owner, Manuela, in person due to our short stay, she was incredibly responsive and caring through text — checking in, giving us tips, and making sure we had everything we needed. • The Town: Gravina di Puglia truly surprised us. It has the deep, ancient feel of Matera but without the crowds. The historic bridge, caves, and charming streets were fascinating, and we only scratched the surface. Local restaurants were delicious and welcoming, and the people were genuinely warm and friendly.

Nothing. Everything was perfect.

Firstly, the interaction with Manuela, who was so hospitable, provided us with lots of information on certain places we wanted to visit. The room looked like something from Best Hotels in the world, and it was just amazing value for money. I would go on to say that the breakfast supplied wine,cheese,ham,milk,eggs,biscuits,etc. was also delicious. We had his and hers robes,shower gel,shampoo,conditioner, and even a toothbrush, which came in very handy as my charger broke. It was actually a very historical building as it used to be the stables of the villa that belonged to the family. This was influenced in the interfering as the horse rings and eating troughs had been integrated in the bathroom . The wooden furniture was all individually selected to be displayed, and being such a big room, it all looked amazing. Also, we had a safe parking spot and access to an outside glass house.There were lots of restaurants to try as well as the fascinating area of Gravina in Puglia, which was just beautiful.

That we had to leave.

This place is exceptional. Beautifully decorated to a very high standard. Fully stocked fridge for breakfast.. juice, water and even a bottle of wine. Safe secure parking. Excellent value for money. The host was at hand at all times and so helpful. We will definitely come back. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Nothing... the place was amazing.

Apartment is located 8 minutes walk from Gravina old town. Breakfast is included, but excellent bakery for fresh daily Puglian bread is located 200 meters away and a small grocery shop only 30 meters away.

The beautifully converted barn has superb facilities. The provision of food for breakfast was very generous and comprehensive. Parking was off-road and very safe. The wifi was excellent. Questions to the owner were responded to very promptly.

Some simple information about locations beyond the town of Gravina would be most useful. Sites within the town itself were often closed and although Gravina is a very interesting location, its complex lanes make it quite challenging to grasp on first contact. Towns such as Altamura and Matera are rewarding places to visit, but others such as Bitonto, Castel del Monte and Ruvo di Puglia, although distant, are worth seeking out. Venosa, however, does not merit the long haul.
