Picture the scene – you're watching the sky turn pink as the sun goes down, while wafting lazily through an Italian country garden, watching the golden sunlight reflections bounce off the calm outdoor pool, with a glass of Prosecco in hand... sound like your perfect moment? Then you'll absolutely love a serene stay at this gorgeous villa, based in the Puglia region, close to the gorgeous city of Lecce. The outdoor areas are sure to grab your attention here – the freeform outdoor pool is ideal for a refreshing swim on sunny mornings, while the poolside loungers and daybed invite you to relax with a good magazine and your morning coffee. Head over to the covered terrace on hot afternoons and enjoy a cocktail in the shade in the lounge area, or snack on Italian meats and cheeses on the alfresco dining set. Inside, the house is classical and beautiful, with exposed brick alcoves in different shades of amber, gorgeous original doors and archways, and a charming original fireplace for when you want to get cosy. We love the calming lounge area that's ideal for an afternoon nap, and the quaint kitchen where you can cook up tasty Italian breakfasts of bacon frittata.
