Basking in the sunshine of the Italian countryside, this charming villa might just be the tranquil escape you’ve been looking for. Taking centre stage in the outdoor space is the private pool, glistening invitingly and providing the best possible way to cool off in the heat of the day. After a refreshing swim, stretch out on a sun lounger and as you soak up the rays, look past the pool and countryside vistas to the sea in the distance, the vibrant blue colour reminding you that a trip to the coast is a must. Inside, the home is earthy and rustic. We love the use of wood panelling to create feature walls and the kitchen island. If you choose to cook and eat indoors rather than taking advantage of the outdoor seating and barbecue, from the open-plan dining area and kitchen you’re treated to the same serene green and blue vistas as you are by the pool – just don’t burn your dinner if the view distracts you. With beaches and the beautiful whitewashed city of Carovigno on your doorstep, you’ll never be short of things to do. For nature lovers, a trip to the protected marine area of Torre Guaceto should be top of your to-do list.
