This superb Italian holiday house is an old limestone building, situated in the Historic Centre, of the picturesque and lively town of Monopoli. The house has four floors and roof terrace. From the terrace there are wonderful panoramic views. You can look down on neighbouring roof terraces, or watch the day to day life in the streets below. You can admire the old town skyline with its many church-towers and in the distance the Adriatic sea shimmers. Almost within touching distance is the cupola of the nearest church, the Purtgatorio, which gives its name to our small street Via Purgatorio. Just behind Purgatorio rises the tower of the Cathedral, the pearl of Monopoli.
The house has two hundred years' of history. Its traditional construction, with thick walls of natural stones, makes it a superb place to stay and live in. All the rooms have vaulted ceilings which give a feeling of space and air. Like many urban dwellings in Italy has high ceilings and combined with the thick walls - prevents excessive heat and is therefore cool even on the hottest summer days.
