Book a stay in one of the best homes in [destination]

Immerse yourself in the romance of Puglia and book yourself a stay at this gorgeous one-bedroom getaway, located right in the centre of the picturesque town of Polignano a Mare.

Step in off the narrow cobbled street and discover the charms of its recently renovated interior, which winds up through the home and includes a cosy sitting room and bedroom that share a soothing blue theme and a compact but well-equipped kitchen. 

However, it's in its outside space that the home really comes alive. With good weather all but guaranteed over the summer months, you'll be spending most of your time relaxing in the dappled shade of the covered terrace and topping up your tan on the rooftop terrace, with its far-reaching sea views.

Polignano a Mare's historic centre is the perfect size to explore on foot, making requisite stops at various viewpoints dotted throughout the town. Once you've seen the sights, refuel in a quaint kerbside cafe before making your way down to the pebble beach at Lama Monachile. Nestled between steep limestone cliffs, it makes for an idyllic dip in the crystal-clear waters of the Adriatic.

You can't come to the heel of Italy without factoring in a visit to the iconic cone-shaped trulli homes that line the streets of Istrian Valley towns like Alberobello. Meanwhile, the spectacular city of Matera is known for its ancient cave dwellings and, most recently, for featuring in a Bond film.

Rays the Roof 

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

This home is small in size, but it packs quite a punch. And, while the main bedroom is on a mezzanine and the third guest will be on the single sofa bed in the living room – meaning privacy is limited – for a short city break, there's a lot to be said for it. It's worth noting that the kitchen is compact, but with so many great cafes, restaurants, bars, and nearby, chances are you'll be out enjoying the local cuisine or savouring a light bite on the shared patio. 

Elegant Pearl

With its conical rooftops and exposed stone, this trullo captures the original charm of Puglia. Just five minutes from Alberobello, a UNESCO World Heritage site, it’s a peaceful base surrounded by olive and fruit trees. Inside, arched ceilings, stone walls and a cosy fireplace give a sense of tradition, balanced with a modern kitchen for easy meals at home. Outside, the private pool is the highlight, with loungers, shaded dining and even a hammock among the olive trees. Alberobello’s cafes and trattorias are close by, with Locorotondo, Ostuni and the Adriatic coast all within reach.

Old Stone Palace

Few places in Puglia can outshine this home's unique vantage point. It sits at the foothills of Ostuni and offers a spectacular view of the ancient whitewashed city, just twenty-two minutes away on foot. Formerly a farmstead, it's surrounded by a dramatic canvas of verdant pastures and wooded slopes for as far as the eye can see, offering a delightfully peaceful base for families and large groups.

From the outset, this home impresses with its gloriously green scenery and stately stone facade. The interior strikes the perfect balance between authentic charm and contemporary comfort, and you'll feel like royalty as soon as you set foot in the elegant entryway. Throughout, high barrel vault ceilings, sweeping archways and heaps of natural light create a free-flowing ambience primed for relaxation. 

The real magnum opus of this home is undoubtedly its outdoor space. With one acre of beautifully landscaped gardens, including various sun-soaked and shaded spots, it beckons you to unwind in the splendour of your surroundings. The private pool provides the best seat in the house, boasting a crystal-clear viewpoint of Ostuni from its sparkling waters. Spend your days poolside, soaking up the sun or relaxing beneath the pergola with a glass of lemonade. Come sunset, fire up the barbecue and gather on the terrace for a delicious alfresco feast.

Ode to Ostuni

Tucked away in a quiet neighbourhood near the centre of Lecce, this charming apartment beautifully blends contemporary living with classic Salento architecture. Step inside and you'll find handcrafted ceramic tiles, exposed stone walls and high vaulted ceilings, giving this home plenty of charm and a natural ambience. The cosy breakfast area is perfect for enjoying a cup of coffee and a home-cooked meal in the morning before heading out to explore the town.

You'll be within easy distance of the magnificent Piazzo del Duomo here, a famous square housing a baroque cathedral considered by many to be the most beautiful building in the city. Many of the area's main craft shops, wine bars, markets and restaurants are all within walking distance of the apartment, should you fancy a little retail therapy or a taste of the local cuisine. 

When you get home after a day of wandering along the town's cobblestone lanes, head home to enjoy an evening drinking wine in the private courtyard. 

Salento Star Vaults

No doubt about it, this idyllic Itria Valley home is pure Puglian perfection. Comprising carefully restored Trulli – traditional dry-stone structures with a conical roof – along with contemporary architectural additions, this authentic home oozes character and charm as well as sophistication and style. Featuring an open-plan kitchen, dining and living space – think whitewashed walls, awesome archways and cool tiled floors – as well as two beautifully serene bedrooms, this heavenly home is perfect for a couple of couples or family group seeking some good old-fashioned R & R. Occupying a tucked-away and tranquil spot and surrounded by gorgeous greenery, this wonderfully white home boasts spaces fit for socialising as well as seclusion.

Laze on loungers in the sun or luxuriate in your private, outdoor pool. Prepare family favourites on the white worktops in the kitchen before dining alfresco on the poolside terrace. Treat yourself to an afternoon snooze or seek the calm of the colourful courtyard. Find a quiet place to sit and read a book on the banquette seating in the sitting room or relax with a glass of local wine on the sofa. Round off a romantic day with time spent in the master bedroom’s free-standing tub.

If you fancy a little light exploration, you’ll find you’re a ten-minute drive away from both the Valley towns of Locorotondo and Cisternino. Set off on scenic walks or cycle routes or venture a little further and discover iconic Ostuni – also known as ‘The White City’ – famous for its 15th-century Gothic cathedral.  


Terracotta Heaven

This pet-friendly coastal apartment lies in the bustling Monopoli, just a few minutes walk from the golden shores of Cala Porta Vecchia. The terrace offers sea views and space to dine alfresco or lounge under the sun, while the main bedroom enjoys its own en-suite with a shower by the bed, ideal for couples. The kitchen here has a hob but is lacking a full-sized oven, so we think it's best for prepping light bites. Fear not though – you can reach an array of nearby restaurants on foot. Your host can help arrange a wide variety of services to elevate your stay, from experiences and tours to childcare equipment and cleaning, so you can focus on relaxing.

Serene Stone Sanctuary

This stone house is a charming base for six in Monopoli. It’s close to the seafront, and boasts wonderful views of the sea and the historic city centre from the terrace. We love the alfresco dining area in the shade of the pergola, too – you’ll likely spend most of your time here outside. Inside, there are lots of stairs to navigate so it’s not a suitable choice for those with children under six. There are cosy corners for moments of relaxation, and quirky details that add charm. 

Azure Affair

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

Seeking a seaside escape on Puglia's coast? This apartment, just 20 metres from the water and Spiaggia Cala Vecchia, gets full marks for location. Even better are the views on offer. A shared terrace is the perfect spot to soak up the scenery, including vistas of the old Monopoli Cathedral. You'll also have a small private balcony off the bedroom where you can perch with a coffee and watch the waves roll in. Two further guests will kip on a sofa bed. Although it’s somewhat simple in design, this is a practical pad ideal for those planning to spend most of their time exploring.
