Modern and minimalist, this villa is ideal for an Italian getaway. All eyes will be on the swimming pool, which is open seasonally and boasts fantastic countryside views. Another perk is the alfresco dining area, where you can come together for family meals prepared on the barbecue. There's also a two-bedroom annexe here with a kitchenette and small patio, providing plenty of privacy (and space) for grandparents, couples or teens. When you're ready to explore, Ugento has restaurants and shops covered, while the Puglian coastline and sandy beaches are just an 8-kilometre drive.

Home truths
An external staircase leads to the separate annexe, which houses a small kitchenette, two double bedrooms, and a bathroom with a shower. It's a good option for older guests or those wanting extra privacy.
One of the bedrooms in the main house has a shower directly in the room, which lacks privacy. It also shares a separate bathroom with another bedroom.
Due to this home's location, we suggest hiring a car for ease. There's private parking available here.
If you're travelling for work, you won't find a dedicated desk here. However, the dining table doubles up as a laptop-friendly workspace.
The swimming pool is open seasonally (May to October) and is unfenced. Children will need to be supervised at all times.
