Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Found a short drive from the whitewashed town of Ostuni, this villa is all charm and beautiful views. Though the stone interior of the home is unique, the style here might not appeal to everyone. Still, it's cosy and roomy – even with three people each in two of the bedrooms. If you do happen to need a little extra breathing room, you can happily stroll out to explore the sprawling garden. With seating from everything from alfresco dining to morning coffee with a book, it's topped off by the swimming pool, hot tub and stone barbecue. This is a perfect spot for a family wanting to explore a more peaceful Italian break.

Local guide
About Ostuni
You’ll probably spot Ostuni long before you reach the so-called White City of Puglia. It rises up on three hills, above the rust-red earth punctuated by olive trees. Shambling, narrow streets lead up the hillside to the crowning 12th-century Ostuni Cathedral. It’s a veritable labyrinth of ancient alleyways, where you can sample traditional Puglian fare like handmade orecchiette and oozing dollops of burrata in terrace restaurants, or taste a Salice...
