Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Set among olive groves in the Puglian countryside, this restored trullo gives you a quiet base without being cut off. Outside, there’s a pool, plus a shaded dining area, barbecue and a hammock – so you’ll likely spend a fair bit of time out here. Inside, it’s on the smaller side but comfortable, with two bedrooms and a sofa bed for extra guests. Ostuni is about fifteen minutes away by car for restaurants and its whitewashed streets, while the Adriatic coast is around twenty-five minutes if you fancy a beach day. Alberobello, Cisternino and Martina Franca are all easy drives too.

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...
