Situated amongst centuries-old olive groves, this charming property beautifully blends history with contemporary living. You will feel relaxed from the moment you arrive – the panoramic view of the horizon, the picturesque gardens and the tranquil infinity pool set the ambience perfectly. Days will be well spent soaking up the Italian sun from your lounger, your holiday read in one hand and a fine glass of wine in the other. When lunchtime rolls around, light the barbecue and dine alfresco on the veranda for a relaxed afternoon with loved ones. Step inside, and you’ll fall further in love with this home. Neutral in decor but filled with comfortable furnishings, this is a wonderfully relaxing social space. We love the rooftop terrace for a romantic evening watching the sunset – a secluded spot for a magic moment. Within easy reach of the Adriatic Sea and the delightful beach at Torre Guaceto nature reserve, you’ll leave with your senses rejuvenated. The surrounding towns are filled with quaint streets, delicious food and gelato to die for. Meander around, taking in the architecture and listening to the language that sounds like a song. You’ll return feeling full, and not just from the incredible pasta dishes. Sink into the outdoor sofas and reminisce about your day, feeling the sun's warmth on your face – a gentle reminder you're in paradise.

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...
