This beautiful villa, boasting iconic trulli architecture, is a splendid choice of base in southern Italy. Surrounded by pine forest and with its own private pool, it provides a serene escape for families, but the buzz of historic Martina Franca is a short drive away. You can also easily drive to the beaches on both the Adriatic and Ionian coasts. Spend your days soaking up the sun or dining in the shade of the terrace – there’s a barbecue in addition to a well-equipped kitchen. Inside, you’ll find a blend of rustic charm and modern comfort. We love the traditional stone arches.
