Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Set among centuries-old olive trees just outside Ostuni, this villa gives you a quieter base with easy access to Puglia’s highlights. The outdoor space revolves around the pool and shaded pergola, with an outdoor kitchen and space to eat outside, so don’t be surprised if most of the day ends up happening here. You’re about a ten-minute drive from Ostuni for restaurants and shops, and twenty-five minutes from the coast. Towns like Alberobello, Monopoli and Polignano a Mare are all within forty-five minutes by car. It suits those who want a bit of seclusion without being cut off – you’ll just need a car to make the most of it.

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...
