Lovely villa near Ostuni
Casale Citrignano di Mina & Andrea Is a lovely villa 5 mins drive from the small functional Puglia town of San Michele Salentino (where there are locals restaurants, petrol and shops) and 15 mins drive from beautiful tourist destination of Ostuni (the ‘White City’). It’s out in the countryside so you really need a car - this makes it wonderfully quiet and rural and it’s within easy day visits for go-to destinations including Polignano, Monopoli, Alberobello, Martina Franca and more. The owners - Andrea and Mina - live next door and were really helpful, kind and friendly leaving wine and biscuits on arrival and bringing fresh eggs for us in the week. The villa has everything and more that you need; the patio area has plenty of seating and umbrellas for shade and the pool is great for cooling off. There’s also an outside kitchen and BBQ. There are actually two separate units to the property: the master suite which has indoor seating, kitchen, dining, bathroom and behind a half-height wall, the double bedroom. There’s a second small unit also accessed from the patio with a small kitchenette, double bed and bathroom making the configuration perfect for the three adults in our group. (I believe the villa is always let complete but you’d have to check). It was a perfect stay for the second week of our two-week Puglian holiday: thank you.
