This delightful villa is situated halfway between the towns of Ostuni and Carovigno, known for its olive oil production. It’s a great base for exploring southern Puglia – we love that it’s close to the white sand beaches of the Torre Guaceto nature reserve. The patio boasts sea views, and the home is surrounded by olive groves and greenery, making it a restful home-from-home. The swimming pool and alfresco dining area ensure that you have everything you need for a wonderful Puglian escape.

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.
