| Near Fasano, set in a centuries old olive plantation, not far from enchanting beaches of fine white sand, stands the Masseria Torre Coccaro - in a converted huge, seventeenth century building - a residence capable of blending the charm of old country traditions with all the comforts of a modern accommodation structure. The 28-ensuite rooms with garden and the grand suite facing the orange grove include a hairdryer, thermostatically controlled air-conditioning, fridge bar, telephone, satellite TV and safe. Moreover, in fascinating underground grottos, guests can avail themselves of the hydromassage swimming pools, with different temperatures, Turkish bath, and enjoy beauty treatment and massages with olive oil and wine. The restaurant, converted from the old stables, prepares Mediterranean dishes, using the produce of its own organic vegetable garden, in full adherence to the traditional flavors of the past. Among the facilities available to guests are the private beach, a boat for fishing trips, an eighteen-hole golf course, stables and cookery school. Finally, the Masseria makes an excellent starting point for visits to the Castellana Grottos, the Selva di Fasano woodlands, the Egnathia archaeological site, the trulli of Alberobello and to Cisternino. The Hotel Masseria Torre Coccaro is open all year around.
