The detail

Nestled among the olive groves and orchards, in stunning Puglia, this traditional stone villa provides a glamorous location to enjoy the best of Italy's sunshine, scenery and, of course, the wonderful food and wine. Manicured gardens and a large pool give guests plenty of outdoor space to play, while the series of covered terraces provide cooling shade when the sun peaks at the hottest point of the day.

Dining and lounging areas are perfectly positioned so guests can keep safely out of the heat, whenever they desire, yet still remain a few steps from the still blue waters of the pool, where they can take a dip, cool off and enjoy the lovely views. Of course, loungers are also provided for those who want to work on the tan. At night, turn on the outdoor lights, the pool has pretty underwater lighting, for a romantic atmosphere which offers guests the chance to enjoy this fabulous space late into the night.

The interior is no less impressive with an open plan kitchen, living and dining area with views out to the pool and beyond. The villa is built from heavy stone keeping it beautifully cool throughout the hot Italian summers. The kitchen is well-equipped and the abundance of lovely local produce will inspire chefs to cook memorable meals which can be enjoyed at the large dining table, or al fresco under the extensive terrace. There is an outdoor stone oven which offers the perfect opportunities for rolling some dough and perfecting the authentic pizza night. Upstairs, and the three cool bedrooms, with soothing neutral colour schemes, all have modern en-suite bathroom featuring large walk-in showers.

Visitors would be forgiven for never leaving the spectacular surrounds of the villa but plenty of authentic Italian culture can be found less than 10 minutes away by car.
The local town of Ostuni is chic and stylish with lovely restaurants, bars and cafes. There are also plenty of shops where guests can stock up on the high quality olive oil which is produced in the region and other goodies. Perhaps pack a picnic and head to one of the white sand beaches such as piaggia Mezzaluna, Spiaggia Torre Guaceto and Spiaggia di Pantanagianni Grande all just a 25-minute drive away.
