This limestone trulli house, with its conical roof, is particular to the region of Puglia, so where better to stay on a trip to the heel of southern Italy? Set in five acres of land, with ancient olive groves and fruit trees, there are many seating areas to choose from, whether you are enjoying a breakfast of fresh Italian fruit, eating a barbecued dinner or knocking back a sundowner. The sleek pool is the perfect spot to cool off from the summer heat, while inside a traditional wood-burning stove will keep you warm on chilly evenings. 

Conical Roof

With stunning sea views from this home’s patio and roof terrace, you’ll be relaxing in no time. There’s also a shaded outdoor dining area with a barbecue, ideal for enjoying the Italian climate. Another bonus is the vegetable garden with its produce available for guests to harvest. Inside, we love the barrel-vaulted ceilings and the large living area – this place is perfect for family and friends. And with easy access to some of the best beaches in Southern Salento, the location is great too.

Sea & Earth

Just a few minutes from the sea, in the charming town of Castro, you'll find this abode. The true highlight here is the mini-pool and solarium that act as an oasis for those seeking peace and privacy. That said, the water is just a short stroll downhill, or, if you hop in the car, it's just a five-minute drive. Well-placed for discovering Baroque towns and cities such as Otranto and Lecce, this is a solid shout for families and groups of friends alike. 

Stone Citadel

This small but cosy villa is full of character and a relaxing base for families exploring the best of Puglia. It's surrounded by a lush garden with a hammock and ample dining areas, perfect for long alfresco meals after exploring the local area. There's even an indoor gym so you can stick to your workout routine, even on holiday. The historic city of Ostuni and the Merlata coast are a short drive away and this home also comes with bicycles so you can explore the Puglian countryside and neighbouring villages at your own leisure. 

Olive Hill

Situated in Lecce's hamlet of Salignano, this villa boasts a heated private pool and a lovely garden with space for sitting out in the sunshine or dining in the shade. The decor here is quite traditional and perhaps won't be to everyone's taste, but we think the location is great. The ancient Heroon Centopietre, an enigmatic tomb of the noble hero Gimignano, is a short walk away, while the Ionian Sea is easily reached by car, whether you head west to the Marina di San Gregorio beach or east to Il Ciolo.

A Fantastic Place

Just a few minutes stroll from the beach, this home opens its doors to a laidback coastal getaway. Surrounded by olive trees, the garden sets the tone for slow days relaxing by the pool. There’s also a wood-burning oven and a barbecue for alfresco dining and you’ll have a ping pong table for family fun. Inside, the rooms are set across the main house and the independent trullo – perfect for those seeking a little extra privacy. And when it comes to explorations further afield, it’s just a short drive to the village of Torricella, while Taranto and Porto Cesareo are also within easy driving distance. 

The Light of Joy 

If you’re seeking a picturesque home in central Monopoli, this second-floor apartment is just the ticket. There’s no parking here, but this city on the Adriatic Sea is easily explored on foot. Speaking of, you’ll find the Baroque Monopoli Cathedral, the 16th-century Castle of Carlo V, and the frescoed Palmieri Palace within walking distance. Located within a period building, you’ll find plenty of original features here. Though you’ll need to climb the stairs up, you'll love spending evenings on the rooftop terrace relaxing with wine and grilling up dinners. 


From Monopoli, With Love

Fall in love with the timeless charm of Italy with a stay in this rustic retreat. Nestled in Puglia’s Valle d’Itria, you’ll be treated to beautiful views, a large swimming pool and a peaceful terrace for alfresco dining. All of the bedrooms come with en-suite bathrooms and there is a traditional trullo hidden in the grounds – providing the perfect refuge for two lucky guests. Housekeeping is included and you’ll find all the essentials you could need to settle in and unwind. Plus, it’s in a fantastic location with Ostuni and Ceglie Messapica just a ten-minute drive away. 


Italian Paradise

Drop your bags and explore Polignano a Mare from this cosy apartment, hidden away from tourists yet close to the city centre. The train station and coastline are easily accessible on foot, as well as local shops and restaurants. We think families and couples will settle right in – the sofa bed adds flexibility to the sleeping arrangements and your host can provide children's equipment on request. The kitchen lacks a full-sized oven, but you'll have everything you need for cooking up light bites or small meals. To elevate your stay further, your host can arrange a variety of extra services from housekeeping to private tours.

Polignano Promise

Beneath vaulted ceilings and stone archways, every inch of this Italian villa feels like a sacred sanctuary. About two thousand years ago, these olive trees were planted – and this palatial home now honours them. Just a short drive away from the white-washed city of Ostuni, the design here follows local tradition, but the elegant interior elevates it completely.

Drive up to a gated entrance – see the trim lawn and romantic cobblestones – and feel a sense of grace and grandeur as soon as you arrive. Underground, you'll find the old mill – a preserved place that is perfect for dinner parties and wine tastings. Above, there's a relaxing massage room and a peaceful living space where you can unwind.

Behind wooden shutters, every bedroom boasts outdoor access – plus, refreshing rain showers in the en-suite bathrooms. If you don't fancy heading out to nearby Costa Merlata, take a dip in your private salt pool instead. Before a barbecue lunch, why not sip Nespresso coffee under the pergola?

Consider hiring a private chef, so all you need to do is gather your loved ones around the dining table. On your doorstep, you'll discover a surf school, tennis courts, and horse-riding lessons. Even better, you can have it all arranged for you through the booking services available.

Where Love Is King

Experience the quiet charm of Ostuni with a stay in this rustic retreat. Nestled in the heart of the Parco delle Dune Costiere, it’s within easy reach of the seafront and the beautiful beaches lining the coast. You can also spend blissful days lounging by the private pool and there is an outdoor kitchen for alfresco dining. Inside, all three of the bedrooms come with en-suite bathrooms and you’ll find plenty of space to relax and unwind after a day in the sun. Your host is also on hand to help organise a range of extra services – including guided tours, boat charters and wine tastings. 

Sweet Sunlight

Minimalist in design but not lacking in any comforts, this inviting apartment in Monopoli offers an ideal base for those looking to explore this Adriatic ace of a town with its beautiful historic sights and dreamy coastline. Step inside to find wood floors, pared-back furnishings and glass doors leading out onto a private balcony with sea views. Savour the salty breeze as you enjoy your morning coffee in the sun and retreat to this outdoor space each evening for a celebratory sundowner. With a stylish bedroom accented by gold notes and an en-suite bathroom featuring a luxurious rainfall shower, you’re all set for a memorable stay. 

When you’re ready to venture out for some exploring, make a beeline for the Porto Antico to watch the turquoise waves rolling in or visit the Baroque Monopoli Cathedral for some history and culture. You’ll love getting lost amidst the cobbled streets lined with whitewashed houses and, of course, sampling the local Puglian delicacies at the many restaurants on your doorstep.
