This charming countryside villa sits in picturesque Puglia, in a peaceful spot close to Carbonelli as well as some stunning sandy beaches in Capitolo. Built way back in the 1600s, this home feels steeped in history, but has been renovated so it still feels like a luxurious home-from-home. Outside, the garden looks bright and vibrant, with a private outdoor pool for a rejuvenating dip on hot days, plus lots of spaces to sit with a good book in the shade.
