Get a taste of rural Italian living at this villa, right at the bottom of Italy’s ‘boot’ in the Salento region. It’s got a lot going for it, especially if you like outdoor living – think private saltwater swimming pool, hammocks, sun loungers and a wood-fired barbecue. Though the decor may not be to everyone’s taste, the location more than makes up for it – it’s a mere five-minute drive to get to Santa Maria di Leuca, where you can explore the dramatic coast and discover hidden sea caves.
