Villa Ashworth Bar Ostuni

Invitation only Private Rooftop Bar Nestled in The hills of Ostuni or "La Città Bianca" high above the vast olive-carpeted plateau of the lower Murgia, Ostuni founded by an indigenous tribe some 600 years before Christ. The People of Ostuni Started the practice of lime-washing the town as a means of lightening up the dark, labyrinthine medieval streets but in the 17th century it became a matter of life and death and was used to limit the spread of the plague. The striking View of the white city has long been an awe-inspiring sight for those travelling across Puglia.
