This charming building may have 16th-century roots, but it’s hard to imagine, such is the quality of its renovation. The domed ceiling gives a nod to its history and is the first thing you see on waking in the morning. And while the home isn’t the biggest, it’s comfortable for two and is an ideal base for exploring the beautiful old town of Ostuni – perfect for those just wanting to drop their bags and head straight out to immerse themselves in the Italian lifestyle.

Home truths:
*This home isn't suitable for children and infants. *There are stairs to climb in this apartment to reach the bedroom on the mezzanine area. It might not be the best option for those with reduced mobility. *Given the home's central spot, expect to hear some street noise throughout your stay. *Some areas of this apartment are slightly overlooked by neighbouring homes. Due to the proximity of the surrounding buildings, the views aren't the most inspiring. *You'll have access to the reception hall, lounge, ancient chapel, relaxation area with spa bath, and internal courtyard here. They're shared with the building's other residents. *Noise must be kept to a minimum between 10pm and 8am.
