For those looking to visit Italy, but prefer 'the road less
travelled', or for those who want to relax somewhere less hectic, one of
those trulli inns, a beachside cottage, a rustic farmhouse or a villa
with pool in Puglia may be the perfect choice!
The Heel Of The Boot
Also known as Apulia, this region located in the heel area of the boot that forms Italy on the map is not yet one of the traditional tourist destinations in the way that Rome, Milan and Venice are. But that may be precisely why more holidaymakers are veering towards this area. With its Baroque towns, castles, beaches, olive groves and more, there are many things to see and discover in the area. Although with its sunny climate and laid-back atmosphere you couldn't be blamed for just wanting to relax at your villa with pool in Puglia.
Accommodations
Since it isn't quite as established as, say, Rome or Milan, hotels aren't quite as standardised in terms of prices or services as those more well-known Italian destinations. Still, there are many options when it comes to places to stay other than hotels, each one a distinct experience on its own. One can choose to stay in a trullo cottage - the beehive-shaped limestone dwellings that are attractions in their own right - cave houses in Matera, a farmhouse by the many olive groves or, perhaps the most popular option, a villa with pool in Puglia.
Top Places To Go
A vast area of around 19,000 square kilometres of broad plains and low hills divided into six provinces, there are many sights and attractions interesting enough to pull you away from your villa with pool in Puglia. If Baroque architecture, castles and churches are your area of interest, you may want to go on the Castles and Churches trail - which includes Trani, Barletta, Martina Franca and Castel del Monte. Lecce's Old Town is also a definite must see, with its churches and palazzo - particularly the Duomo, the Basilica St. Croce and the St. Irene Church.
The UNESCO heritage sites of Alberello and Matera are also interesting sights, and a compelling enough reason to leave your villa with pool in Puglia. Alberello's trulli (the plural of trullo) are a group of about 1,400 beehive shaped limestone dwellings, many of which have been converted into restaurants, museums and inns. You'll want to stay more than a few hours in these unique surroundings before going back to your villa with pool in Puglia - not only are the food and drinks sumptuous, the people are friendly too!
On the other hand, Matera's "sassi" are unusual cave dwellings suspected to be the first human settlement in Italy, and are a great example of a troglodyte settlement, dated as far back as the Paleolithic age.
