Pale Alabaster

Charming, cosy, and central – just how we like our homes. You'll find this pocket-sized pad in the heart of Ostuni, a stone's throw from the landmarks. Spend your days exploring on foot, getting lost in the picturesque squares and meandering along the white-washed streets. The design is a bit more bare-bones than we're used to – for instance, the kitchenette lacks an oven and the main bedroom is open to the lounge – but we're fans of the stone walls and arched ceilings. Besides, plenty of eateries are within walking distance, so it makes a great starting point for sightseeing.

Home truths:
*The main bedroom is partially open to the living area, so it lacks privacy. There also isn’t a lot of storage space, so you may want to pack light.
*You won't find an oven here – though there are hotplates. We think the kitchenette is better suited to prepping lighter bites than large meals.
*The bunk beds are a bit bare-bones, so we think they’re best for little ones.
*The layout is small and some home comforts are lacking. Our recommendation is to use this as a base for sightseeing.
*There may not be a washing machine here, but you’ll find a launderette a short walk away.
