The villa is situated just a short drive from Martina Franca's center, perched atop the Southern Murgia Plateau. It occupies a central position in southern Apulia, boasting a historic center of timeless allure that narrates the city's illustrious history. The emblem of the city is the grand Basilica of San Martino, majestically situated in the splendid Plebiscito Square. Noteworthy are also the "Chiesa del Carmine," "Chiesa di San Francesco d'Assisi," and "Chiesa di Sant'Antonio dei Cappuccini." In Roma Square, nestled in the heart of the city, stands Palazzo Ducale, emblematic of civic governance, housing both a museum of natural sciences and a gallery of pictorial art. The villa's surroundings extend into the heart of the Itria Valley, amidst ancient trulli and exquisite woodlands. Martina Franca enjoys a strategic locale, facilitating access to the extensive Ionian beaches, such as Campomarino and Porto Cesareo, and the Adriatic coast, including the natural reserve of Torre Guaceto, Torre Canne, and Capitolo. The most alluring spot to savor Martina Franca's delights is beneath the arcades of Piazza Maria Immacolata, where guests can indulge in the local DOC wine and savor the city's signature dishes served as delectable street food during festivals. Notably, the "bombette" rolls and the renowned "capocollo" of Martina Franca—a succulent meat sausage infused with red wine and Mediterranean spices—hold pride of place. A short distance away lies Locorotondo, celebrated for its white wine, Ceglie Messapica, a hub of culinary and traditional excellence, Cisternino, a gem among Italy's most beautiful villages, and Alberobello, whose iconic UNESCO-listed "trulli" captivate visitors. The enchanting White City of Ostuni is nearby, as is the Pianelle Natural Park at about 15 kilometers.
