Offering the ultimate Puglian escape, spend your days dining under vine-wrapped pergolas, sipping Nero d’Avola on the shady terraces and picking homegrown produce in the fruit and vegetable garden. The bold architecture of this villa will catch your eye immediately, and with three trulli and a lamia stone house, there’s plenty of space for your cohort. The interior style is minimal and inviting, while the outside is equally blissful – the pool is pretty picturesque against its natural garden backdrop. Better still, this location is a perfect starting point for exploring Valle d’Itria’s hilltop villages, including Ostuni, Cisternino and Martina Franca.

Home truths

    A car is recommended here in order to reach the beaches and make the most of your trip. There's parking here for six cars.

    This home is spread across a single level and consists of a main house, three trulli and a natural stone cave – perfect for guests seeking privacy. Though the villa is single-storey, please note there are steps around the property.

    The bedroom in the cave is quite small with limited natural light. However, it has everything you need for a comfortable night's sleep.

    The pool is only available between 1st May and 31st October. It isn't fenced, so if you're bringing little ones, they'll need to be supervised at all times.

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...
