The Puglian countryside is renowned for its wonderful homes packing quirky features, and this villa is no different. Situated amongst olive groves and vineyards stretching as far as the eye can see, this rural paradise really is a treasure for the whole family to enjoy. We absolutely adore the way the modern interior beautifully contrasts the traditional vaulted building structure. You don't see ceilings as unique as this home's very often, and you'll likely have a smile on your face every time you wake up to views of it. The outside of this home is just as brilliant. Feeling like something of a private arena with a dramatic walled exterior, the courtyard is certain to be the hub of your daily activities. Splash around in the heated swimming pool with the kids, or watch them from afar while you and your loved one share romantic cocktails at the marbled outdoor bar. Crank up the sound system with some jazzy music to really set the tone. Being situated in Puglia means you're in a prime location to take advantage of Italy's beautiful south. Lovely beaches along the Adriatic Coastline can be reached within thirty-minutes by car. The host recommends a trip to Torre... Guaceto. For a true Puglian experience, 'The White City', Ostuni, is a twenty-minute drive. Ostuni makes for a great day out soaking up authentic Italian culture. Closer to home, the local village is five-minutes by car and has everything you need, including restaurants, a pharmacy, a supermarket, and a bakery.

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...
