Property 1557152251 - Ostuni - Apulia

3 Bedrooms - Swimming Pool

Location and Surrounding Area. Located in one of the most appreciated areas in Southern Italy, just a few kilometers from the marvelous Adriatic coast and out the charming town of Ostuni, this exclusive three-bedroom property is ideally situated to offer complete privacy and tranquility to its guests, providing a perfect retreat for those who want to explore this diverse region which is home to historic towns, incredible landscapes, excellent food and some of the best beaches in Southern Italy.

In just ten minutes by car, you can easily reach Ostuni, also known as "the white city". With its ancient cobblestone streets, grand churches and quaint white houses, Ostuni boasts remarkable history that goes back to the Stone Age. The Cathedral and the Bishop’s Palace are especially striking, but there are many other architectural gems to be found, including the old homes of the nobles: you would not be mistaken for thinking that you are actually wandering around a charming Greek village.

The villa is just a stone’s throw away from Martina Franca, the largest town in the Valle d’Itria. Being in the heart of the valley, Martina Franca is a great base from which to explore the area, but spend some time exploring its old center, an interesting mix of golden baroque and Greek-like white architecture with many grand palazzi and churches, and a maze of narrow side streets which is perfect for aimless wandering.

In less than forty minutes by car, you can easily reach the Adriatic coast and Polignano a Mare, one of Apulia’s most picturesque seaside towns. Spectacularly positioned on the Adriatic coast, the town is popular amongst tourists who come to visit its charming historic center and enjoy its unique beaches. Beneath the old town is Cala Porto, a small white pebble beach surrounded by cliffs with clear emerald waters.

In less than an hour by car, you can also reach Alberobello, perhaps the most famous town in the Valle d’Itria due to its typical trulli: the conical rooftops coupled with charming cobblestone alleys and whitewashed houses are simply a magical sight. The old town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, consists of a maze of charming streets and steps lined by trulli. Alberobello is considered a unique and enchanting place, and despite the fact that you may find it a bit touristy, it is definitely worth a visit.
