A quiet and relaxing place, Borgo Mulino a Vento in Puglia is a stone’s throw from Otranto and from the crystal clear waters of the bay of Porto Badisco, right in the heart of Salento. A place to live intensely and letting yourself be captured, by its history that began centuries ago.
The story of an underground oil mill, the crucial nucleus of a small rural center of the 1500s, which gave its name to the place and surrounded itself with anecdotes and legends. A place of intense oil and wheat production until 1800, it is nowadays an estate surrounded by olive trees, thanks to the renovation work started from an ancient stable in the late 1980s lead by Giuseppe D’Alba and his family.
