In the heart of the Itria Valley, this contemporary villa sits between the UNESCO-protected town of Ostuni and the charming hilltop village of Cisternino. Within the hectare of surrounding land, you’ve got sprawling olive groves and a seasonal swimming pool that shimmers in the near-constant Puglian sun. A covered gazebo provides shade for long, lazy lunches all while enjoying those far-reaching valley views. Even stepping inside, you can’t escape the rays with a solarium-style sitting room and bedrooms that lead straight to the wrap-around or to the pool.

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...
