Casa M 101

Settle into a life-affirming stay in the Ostuni countryside with this artfully-designed villa. A low profile, complete with ample space and fine interiors will match the highest expectations, as will the cozy wood fireplace, tree-wrapped terrace and rustic bedrooms; a true mix of new and old. The old-world towns of Cisternino and Martina Franca are a short drive through enchanting countryside. Begin your day with a refreshing swim in the lengthy pool that partners this luxurious villa, before emerging and relaxing on the shaded sun recliners. It’s the simplicity yet finery of the property that helps it to stand out so well, with the stone floors and wooden panelled walls providing a cleanly defined and modern-feeling space for friends or family to relax in. A brilliantly polished dining table, rich furniture and cast-iron fireplace helps to round out the attractive interiors, while dry-stone walls splash a touch of Italian countryside character for guests to wake up to. The huge, carved benches and tables of the villa’s gardens are the real star of the property, providing a comfortable and natural gathering space for groups, all under the leafy limbs of the property’s almond trees.   Despite being located in peaceful Italian countryside, guests can take advantage of close access to a number of renowned Italian towns, as well as the delights of the Ostuni coastline. It’s hard not to fall in love with nearby Cisternino, which seems frozen in time with its white houses, winding streets and classic piazzas. Guests are less than 20 minutes from a range of sandy beaches, with the Adriatic sunshine and plenty of great swimming options, while the medieval charm and glorious seasonal processions of Ceglie Messapica are also close by. After a packed day, embrace a glass of Brindisi Rosso wine by the glowing fire pit at the villa. Copyright © Luxury Retreats. All rights reserved.
