Originally a Masseria, a fortified farmhouse typical of the Puglia region, Villa Ciottolo has been immaculately transformed into a resort-style holiday retreat. It was once a luxury boutique hotel and now offers guests the combination of the privacy of a villa holiday while also still offering hotel-like services should the guests so choose to use them.

Surrounded by olive groves and gardens in a secluded area just outside the culinary town of Ceglie Messapica, the villa offers complete privacy for a group of up to eighteen.

Six bedrooms with en suite bathrooms are distributed throughout the main building, adjacent trullo built with authentic stones and poolside farmhouse conversion annexe.

Ample sunlight will surely draw guests to the expansive sunbathing area with plush sofas and a large pool. It's a great spot for alfresco dining too. There is no better way to end the day than with a quiet drink on the terrace while admiring the impressive and captivating panoramic views. The garden portico is perfect for relaxing to the soothing sounds of chirping birds, and when you want to explore, enjoy complimentary bikes.

Known as Italy’s “sunny heel,” Puglia boasts the longest coastline in mainland Italy. Stunning beaches and turquoise waters of the Apulia seas are within short driving distance, and the famous white washed trulli of Alberobello are within a 20-minute drive too.

What Oliver loves...

  • Ceglie Messapica is just 5km away – home to incredible Baroque architecture and unbelievable Southern Italian cuisine
  • This villa in Puglia’s renovation blends beautifully with old world architecture – it’s as aesthetic as it is comfortable
  • The secluded location among olive groves and pomegranate trees create a truly tranquil experience

What you should know

  • Accommodation is spread over the main building with indoor public areas, adjacent trullo house and poolside annexe, thus providing extra privacy for larger groups
  • The secluded location means the villa isn’t ideal for party animals and a car will be necessary to explore the region
  • This property sleeps 12 guests comfortably, whilst a further 6 guests may be accommodated on sofa beds. Please see the 'Property Layout' tab for full details
  • When minimum occupancy is booked (8 guests), some rooms will not be accessible to guests.
  • Please note that external caterers and/or contractors are allowed only if authorised by the owner.
