VILLA AURORA - 7 Bedroom (Sleeps 15) Villa in Ostuni

Description

VILLA AURORA is a beautiful retreat set in the heart of Puglia located in the countryside of Ostuni in one of the loveliest valleys in the Valle d'Itria wine region, close to many nice beaches. It sleeps 15 people, with the option of sleeping up to 17 for an additional charge, and is fabulous for much smaller groups too.

It is set in an idyllic tranquil location for total relaxation, yet less than a 10 minute drive to the historical towns of Ostuni, the famous "White City", Ceglie Messapica and Cisternino, where there are an abundance of great restaurants serving the freshest local produce and great Puglian wines.

The VILLA, APARTMENT & TRULLO have all been beautifully and comfortably furnished throughout. All 7 BEDROOMS are tastefully decorated with good quality comfortable beds. It has lots of large windows and doors to enjoy the beautiful views from whilst inside, making it light, airy and spacious. There are 4 LARGE TERRACES plus 3 LARGE COVERED VERANDAS to sit, eat and relax. The ROOF TERRACE is truly amazing with the real "WOW" factor! All this surrounded by beautifully landscaped gardens, an olive grove and a wonderful HEATED SWIMMING POOL. In low season or for late bookings we are prepared to rent the villa out separately.

The TRULLO is unique to this part of Italy and is 300 years old. It has been fully restored, tastefully providing all the comforts anyone would desire. It has the added benefit of being right next to the villa and consists of a KITCHEN, BEDROOM, BATHROOM and LOUNGE with sofa, table, chairs, TV & DVD player. The walls are over a metre thick, making it cool in the hot summer months. It has air conditioning which can also provide heating for the cooler months of the year.

There are many areas to eat inside the Villa, plus several lovely different areas outside to sit and relax, both in and out of the sun.

The doors and windows are all double glazed with shutters and insect screens, giving total darkness to all the bedrooms at night, creating the perfect sleeping environment.

There is the MOST INCREDIBLE ROOF TERRACE with a marble staircase leading up to it with sofas, coffee table, dining table, chairs, Weber bbq and extensive lighting for evening entertaining. From the villa's elevated position you have spectacular views across the hills to Ostuni, Ceglie Messapica and Cisternino. Perfect for sitting sipping an aperitif watching the sunset and to have dinner under the stars with the most amazing "WOW" experience, which never goes away.

Large stone patio all around the pool bordered with lovely lawns and an oak swing hanging from an olive tree.

There is a very large covered DINING AREA BY THE POOL with a stone table and chairs, stone double sink, fridge and built-in bbq. This has full lighting all around, including the swimming pool and the garden.

Leading up from the swimming pool is a natural STONE TERRACE with benches to sit quietly under the ancient olive trees and enjoy looking down at the swimming pool area, statues and the mediterranean gardens around.

There are 2.5 acres of BEAUTIFULLY LANDSCAPED GARDENS consisting of many different interesting individual areas which are an absolute delight and maintained to the very highest standard. Amongst this is a LOVELY LAVENDER GARDEN and an OLIVE GROVE. There are palms, cypress and many other trees. Fig, mulberry, pomegranate and orange trees to pick your own fruit from. Rosemary, thyme, sage, mint and oregano bushes for fresh herbs to cook with.

15 kW 3 Phase electrical supply at the property to handle all of our electrical requirements and to avoid the problems experienced by many other properties in the area who do not have this, hence their electrics will always be tripping. This is a big plus for us and something all travellers must consider when comparing our property with others.

4 SHADED CAR PORTS plus lots of parking areas all around the grounds

ELECTRIC GATES with intercom system leading to a LARGE DRIVEWAY going all around the property

The property is very private and secure with a high fenced dry stone wall around the entire 2.5 acres

Outdoor TABLE TENNIS and TABLE FOOTBALL

Linda and Chris have put the utmost care and attention into every precise detail. It has been furnished as our home, not as a holiday rental property, giving it that warm homely feel, despite its size. We manage the property ourselves and Linda prides herself in giving our guests a first rate very personal service, always being there to assist, which all our 5* reviews testify

The photographs really don't do it justice, it is better than even the photographs portray

In July and August we request check in and check out be on a Saturday unless it is close to the dates and we have availability

The cleaning charge of £449 is per week, not per stay.
