    The apartment was absolutely stunning and the location is perfect. It is even better than the pictures make it out.
  • Sorina

    Location excellent but impossible to find. No map or directions given beforehand which meant we arrived 15 minutes late to find no-one at the property. The number listed on booking is incorrect and so it became a nightmare trying to find someone...

Designated as the European Capital of Culture in 2019, the city of Matera is mostly well-known and appreciated for its typical Sassi, that, together with the Parco della Murgia Materana, were declared as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in the year 1993 for the cultural trait that distinguishes them. Today the Sassi of Matera offer visitors an incredible natural landscape: from the rupestrian buildings that were excavated by men, to the rupestrian churches (including Santa Maria de Idris - San Giovanni in Monterrone, Santa Lucia alle Malve and San Pietro Barisano churches) and burial areas that dating back to various eras: Middle Ages, Renaissance and baroque until modern times. In the central square of the city, Piazza Vittorio Veneto square, there are few openings that show the original level of the sites, the hypogea, that are located under the square level. The hypogea connect, forming a real underground city connecte with Sassi. You can find here some of the exceptional rupestrian buildings, such as the large cistern known as "Palombaro Lungo", with 15 meters high walls and navigable until recently.
