Do you have a question about this home or the local area?

Wild nature and ample serenity await at this home in the Puglian countryside. Surrounded by centuries-old olive groves and ancient farmhouses and just a short drive to the sea, this romantic bolthole offers a true taste of rural relaxation. A shaded deck and a private heated plunge pool are the true showstoppers here. You’ll also have access to the shared grounds and a larger communal swimming pool. Inside, minimalist decor and whitewashed walls provide a canvas for laid-back living, and while the kitchenette is better suited to light snacks, you need only hop in your car to explore the restaurants and sights of Fasano or the coastal beauty of Savelletri.
