Luxury

A relaxing, hands-on culinary holiday with wine tasting and a rustic hotel, a real Italian short-break for all occasions.

Puglia, a popular region for charming Trulli houses, fine Baroque architecture & beautiful coastline, is now making itsí mark on gastronomy holidays with a recent introduction of small boutique farmhouses and family run wine cellars offering unique opportunities to taste real flavours of the region with simple but tasty recipes that have been passed from one generation to the next!

With this holiday, we will be offering you the chance to learn about rustic Italian cooking in a typical farmhouse from a local cook, enjoy the flavours of your cooking accompanied with tasty local wine, a small walking tour in Conversano, a medieval town where your hotel is located, and a horse and carriage countryside tour along with your delicious four course tasting menu welcome dinner at your hotel.

Surrounded by 50,000 olive trees, with a wonderful pool & not far from the coast.  

The excellent restaurant means great choices for food-lovers! Masseria Bosco has huge character and personality, massive popularity with clients, and amazing abundant cuisine. It is just fabulous,that's a fact!    

This Masseria is in one of the lesser-known parts of Puglia, in a rural setting, surrounded by 50,000 olive trees, and with a wonderful swimming  pool. 2km from Avetrana and more or less equidistant (43km) from Brindisi, Lecce and Taranto, it is perfect for exploring some of Salento's "hidden" Puglia, as well as its important historic cities. The beautiful Ionian Sea, with its sandy beaches, is also only about 8 km away.    

A great choice for food-lovers, the cuisine, based on local and Pugliese  recipes, is superb, plentiful and flavoursome. Very well-known locally, the Masseria has a well-deserved reputation for the fantastic seasonal food it serves, which is often quite unusual and always with the focus very much on 'slow food'. Still a working farm, with 100 hectares of olive trees, lemon and orange groves, an uncle cultivates mostly organic vegetables, which end up on the table, in the restaurant.
