Torre Sessana in Ostuni

A few kilometers from the “white” Ostuni and the attractive beaches of the Apulian coastline, immersed in a beautiful country punctuated of trulli and secular olive trees, stands the enchanting Terra Sessana. The name comes from the district in which it is located: from the latin etymology (sanus) which means healthy life in harmony with nature.
Terra Sessana is a quaint holiday resort that extends over 7 hectares of land. Within this resort there are four houses: the Blue House which is the most prestigious and spacious house, an ancient Trullo, a typical stone building that is traditionally called Lamia, and a Villa with a large veranda overlooking the gardens.
Each property has its own private pool, a lawned garden, and ancient olive trees, from which you can enjoy a marvelous view of the valley.
The interiors of each house have traditional flooring and vaulted stone ceilings. The furnishings are elegant and comfortable.
The blue skies, the olive trees, the red earth, the colours and scents of the Mediterranean are the backdrop of this enchanting place. Offering guests peace and serenity in close contact to the regenerative power of nature.
The Blue House, the Trullo, the Villa and the Lamia are independent and autonomous holdings, finely furnished and equipped with every comfort. They can be rented separately or together..
