I am here in Cancun, Mexico, at IL's Ultimate Event, showing attendees how to find Italy’s best property bargains. During my talk about village homes at prices that just seem too good to be true, I got a few suspicious looks from the attendees.
“Yes, I know it is hard to believe,” I said to one attendee during a coffee break, “but you really can buy a village house in Europe for €14,000 ($22,000).”

Puglia, Italy
Read more about Italy in International Living Postcards—your daily escape
As I’ve discovered recently, Italy’s “heel” province of Puglia is a treasure trove of bargain coastal property and unique countryside homes. To find the best deals, however, you’ll need a car, because the local bus and train networks won’t take you to Italy’s most interesting corners.

Small, conical, dry-stone-roofed houses, or trulli, cover the hill like barnacles on a turtle’s shell. The Lord of the Rings is what first springs to mind when you see Alberobello in Puglia’s Itria Valley, between the Adriatic and Ionian seas.

Bevagna, Italy

San Pietro in Bevagna at night in the low season is not a place to get your pulse racing. At first sight, you might even be tempted to turn around and head back to the busy town of Manduria just a few miles north, as there are few shops open and fewer people on the street to give you directions. My friend Annette and I spent some time trawling the deserted main road of San Pietro looking for a hotel before the welcoming lights of Hotel Byzantine came into view.

Puglia, Italy

A long stretch of the deep turquoise waters of the Adriatic comes into sight almost as soon as you leave Bari airport, and the sandy beaches of the Ionian to the south are no more than 40 minutes’ drive away. For me, one of the best things about Italy’s “boot heel” province of Puglia is that you’re never far from the coast.

I’m not an expert on Italy, but I’m learning quickly thanks to Leigh Fergus, our European editor.
Right now Leigh is in the region of Apulia…called Puglia in Italian. Apulia makes up the heel and much of the Achilles tendon of the Italian boot, and Leigh describes it as a beautiful region with long stretches of sun-baked coastline on both the Adriatic and Ionic seas. Inland Apulia sounds like an Italian postcard…rolling, sunny plains and uplands that are a major source for much of Italy’s grain, wine, and olive oil.
