Masseria Torre Coccaro

Masseria Torre Coccaro is a 10 minute drive from Fasano in Puglia; Bari and Brindisi airports are an hour’s drive away.

The rooms have natural rock walls, and all have been lovingly furnished with antiques and luxuriant fabrics. The Orange Garden suite has its own private pool, while other rooms have private terraces like the Chapel Suite, standing right next to the old church in the courtyard.

Guests can access the private beach club nearby, on a beautiful stretch of sand backed with dunes. Watersports activities are available here and there’s also a restaurant serving fresh fish and oysters. At the hotel itself, feast on authentic Puglian cuisine at Egnathia, set in the old stables of the farmhouse. Meals here are prepared with fresh, organic produce from the hotel’s gardens, and fish is freshly caught from the Salento sea nearby. There are two other restaurants: Cabana is a more informal dining option and Le Palme of Masseria Maizza provides a wonderful view of the flower-filled gardens.

At the hotel there’s also an outdoor pool, Aveda spa, billiard room and private 14-metre yacht. Make use of the excellent horse-riding centre, cookery school, and golf course, or try go-karting and quad biking.
