Offering a beautifully relaxed and tranquil atmosphere amid the rolling countryside of Southern Italy's picturesque Puglia, this gorgeous home is simply ideal for those hoping not only to catch some Mediterranean sunshine, but also to delve into the rich culture and mouthwatering cuisine of the area. From lounging by the pool with the gentle twittering of birds acting as the only background noise as you lose yourself within the pages of a great book, to exploring local towns such as nearby Fasano and the traditional villages which make this part of Italy so beguiling, a stay within the stone walls of this home shows you a taste of the Italian 'dolce vita'. Retreat into the carefully thought-out, calming, and cool spaces of the living areas, enjoy cooking together in the well-equipped kitchen, and savour the fruits of your labour in the wonderfully inviting outdoor dining area where you can while away an evening hour or two listening to the sounds of cicadas as you chat and sip at a rich Italian red. Or, feel as though you're stepping back in time as you meander through the amazing exposed stone of the hallways leading to a cave-like seating area and a... luxurious indoor hot tub. What better place to unwind and leave any worries far behind? We'll cheers to that.
