Casolare Ostuni is nestled six kilometres from Ostuni centre, and about a twenty-minute drive from the beautiful beaches of the Adriatic coast.
Brindisi airport is about thirty-five minutes drive.
Nature lovers will enjoy taking guided hikes through the surrounding hills, olive groves and woodland, or - with the sea so close by - sailing and diving is always an option.
Casolare Ostuni is in the “heel” of Italy, in the very heart of Apulia with its beautiful soft light and far reaching horizons.
The region is known for its olive oil production, as evidenced by the surrounding stretches of olive groves as well as its distinctive white-washed hill towns, centuries-old farmland and hundreds of kilometres of Mediterranean coastline.
The capital Bari is a vibrant port and university town, whilst Lecce is the ‘Florence of the south’ - known for its baroque architecture and “Trulli” - stone huts with cone-shaped roofs that were originally homes; today they can be visited in their preserved form, and provide something of a fairy tale-esque experience for younger members of the group!
Ostuni has a bustling and vibrant centre, perched on a hill; it is characterised by white, flat-topped houses across a labyrinth of tiny streets and alleys. Steeped in history, Ostuni cathedral combines Gothic, Romanesque and Byzantine elements. Ostuni is known locally as “the white city,” it overlooks the Valle d’Itria which is known as one of Puglia’s most beautiful areas.
