Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
This typical Apuglian home invites you to step back in time with its whitewashed stone walls and low-arched doorways, preserving its past in beautiful fashion. The kitchenette is on the small side and one of the beds is in an alcove in the living room. But a light-changing whirlpool tub spins the space into modern living, and once you’ve tackled the narrow steps to the top floor, you’ll find a terrace with panoramic Adriatic views. When you’re ready to head out and explore, you’re perfectly placed to enjoy the sights of Ostuni’s old town with its labyrinth of alleys and steps leading to postcard-perfect views over the sea.

Home truths
This home is laid out over two main floors with additional steps between them – it may not be suitable for those with reduced mobility
There's no desk here, but the dining tables can double up as laptop-friendly workspaces
The doorways are low, so taller guests may find this uncomfortable
The second alcove bed is open to the living area – it has a curtain for minimal privacy
There's not much storage space for those sleeping in the alcove bed in the living area, so we recommend packing light
Given the home's central location, you may hear some street noise
Free public parking is available 50 metres away

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...
