Influencer Chloe Rushworth recommended fans travel to the 'unspoilt' Italian destinations of Puglia and Matera. But not everyone was happy about her video, which was shared on Instagram

Chloe Rushworth, a popular travel influencer known as @thewhitepinesproject on Instagram, has sparked some controversy with her latest holiday suggestion.

In praise of Matera, she continued: "Honestly Matera is the most incredible ancient city. You can not miss it. It's the perfect alternative to other romantic breaks like Rome." Chloe then added: "I highly recommend going to one of the cave museums to understand the history of Matera, because it is just fascinating. For lunch we headed to Zipa Cafe, which is like a really cool ruin bar. The food was fantastic.

After that, Chloe said she and her partner headed 35 minutes to Ostuni, where they based themselves for the last two nights. She says their next hotel, called Massiera Salinola, 'blew them away'. Chloe described it as a family-run farmhouse converted into a beautiful boutique hotel which is five minutes outside Ostuni.

In the post description, Chloe divulged to fans that their getaway cost £1,800 for the two of them, further clarifying, "But we did go over Easter weekend so flights were expensive. It can be done for cheaper." Nevertheless, the post attracted criticism as well. Some warned that her her post would make the area busy while others complained it was already bustling.
