Sitting on the outskirts of sleepy Maruggio, this white-washed villa is only a five-minute drive from the sands of Spiaggia ad Ovest del Porto. While out on the coast, how about popping into an authentic gelateria before admiring the boats at the Porto Turistico Marina di Santa Cristina in Campomarino, two kilometres away? Or, if you fancy staying closer to home, just take a picnic out to the Monte Maggio beauty spot. From the moment you arrive, feel a sense of serenity thanks to this immaculate interior design and neutral colour palette. Start each morning like a local and tuck into an alfresco breakfast of frittatas with your loved ones – several outdoor seating areas await. Maybe you'll curl up under the pergola to escape the midday heat after dog-walking. However you make memories in Puglia, remember to cool off in your private plunge pool. For a perfect end to the day, wander up to your balcony and watch a cloudless sunset in a panoramic vista over the village.
