WHERE WE ARE
Puglia is situated at the extreme southeast of the Italian
peninsula and possesses the longest coastline of any of Italy's political
regions. It is bathed by the Adriatic and Ionian Seas which contribute
to a climate both breezy and temperate during the warm dry summers. Low
levels of rainfall, even during winter, mean year-round sunny days.
The city of Ostuni, in particular, and its environs, nestled between the
Adriatic and the surrounding hills, display an unmistakeably dramatic
whiteness both from the quality of the light itself and from the famous
whitewash used to color all its houses. The result is a vision, to say
the least, out of a fairy-tale.

By car: Highway 379 to either exit Ostuni-Villanova or Ostuni-Villaggio
