About us

We bought 8, Via Tavani Arquati, Ostuni in April 2004 and the restoration of the house was completed in July that year. In 2005 we converted the ground floor into an apartment for ourselves and in 2006-7 we bought and renovated Casa Esmeralda in the next street.

We run a small educational consultancy from our home in the UK. We come to Ostuni as often as we can.

We have four grown-up children and six grandchildren.

The pictures below show our own apartment, La Cantina, which is on the ground floor of the house where wine was made and sold.
