About the villa

Designed to accommodate four guests, but also ideal as a romantic retreat for two, San Rocco is a contemporary villa with modern décor and an uncluttered style. Outside, the driveway opens into extensive gardens punctuated with olive trees. Here, guests can enjoy a comfortable panoramic seating area and far reaching views over the countryside.  Inside is an open-plan living area with sofa, two chairs and modern fitted kitchen. The interiors are splashed with bursts of colour and there are two bedrooms, a double and a twin, with spacious shower rooms.  The double bedroom is on the ground floor and opens to the upper panoramic terrace. A staircase leads down to the lower floor, where guests will find an airy twin bedroom opening to the pool terrace. The entrance door leads out to a furnished dining area, shaded by a well-lit portico overlooking the gardens and outdoor seating area. 

The villa is very privately positioned for a secluded escape away from it all. An excellent cafe and pastry shop/bar with outside seating is within just 3.3km, and there are a selection of good and inexpensive restaurants in Cisternino. Beaches are approximately 20 minutes drive away and the picturesque baroque towns of Martina Franca and Ostuni are within easy driving distance. Guests have also enjoyed visiting olive oil mills, cheese production farms with a guide on foot or bike. We can also arrange cycling with a guide through the countryside passing characteristic trulli houses and farmhouses.   Children will enjoy tree climbing, cable slides and rope ladders at local adventure park as well as activities at the largest water park. Guests have enjoyed  boat excursions available from Poligano. Guests also enjoy visiting Lecce, the ceramics centre of Grottaglie and Matera.
