Masseria Montepaolo is a 16th century farmhouse which has been lovingly restored as a small and charming agriturismo hotel set in the countryside of Puglia.
Set on a hilltop just outside of Conversano, overlooking the endless fields of olive, almond, cherry trees, prickly pears and Mediterranean scrub. The property has a swimming pool and wonderful sun terrace for soaking up the Italian sun and the calm of the countryside. You may choose to explore the local region or just relax and unwind.
Close to Polignano a Mare (also known as the ice cream capital of Italy) and Monopoli, this retreat offers not only yoga but the very best in Italian food. Situated on a ridge of hills extending the length of Puglia, Masseria Montepaolo is close to a series of scattered white-walled medieval towns and villages each boasting their own culinary specialities. Heading down through the olive plains to the sea where there are many fabulous beaches to explore.
