We love this restored old country house nestled in four hectares of land studded with ancient olive and almond trees. A stand-out highlight here is the 40 square metre swimming pool with its geyser and hydromassage features. This garden also has a vegetable patch, so if you're lucky, you might be able to harvest some seasonal produce. There's a bedroom with an en-suite bathroom on the ground floor that boasts a Turkish bath and a private veranda for the ultimate relaxation experience. When you feel like exploring, Ostuni, with its cathedral and medieval gates, is a short drive away. Your host also offers a complimentary guided tour of Alberobello (though it's quite a ride from this property).

About Puglia
If you’re looking to slow down the pace of life for a few weeks, there are worse places than Puglia. This is Italy at its most Italian, with year-round good weather (though it can get hot in the summer) and an estimated 60 million olive trees. That’s a lot of groves to wander through.
