Masseria Saracino Pool And Garden, Martano, Italy

Escape to a traditional stone-built masseria on the edge of Martano, a beautifully restored farmhouse retreat that sleeps up to 8 across four bedrooms and four bathrooms. Inside, a light-filled living room with air conditioning opens through an arched doorway onto the garden, its patterned rug and simple, elegant furnishings setting a relaxed, homely tone. The kitchen is well equipped for cooking in, with a coffee machine, dishwasher, oven, hob, microwave, toaster and fridge on hand, while free Wi-Fi and a Smart TV keep guests connected and entertained.

Outside, the villa comes into its own. Ivy-draped stone walls and a fenced lawn wrap around a private, unheated infinity pool, lit beautifully at dusk, with a shaded pergola lounge alongside it for slow afternoons. A separate stone outdoor kitchen with wood-beamed ceilings and dining space is made for alfresco meals, there\'s a barbecue for evening grilling and a table tennis table for family games, all set in a quiet, sun-soaked spot amid the surrounding greenery.
