A stunning large 3 bedroom villa in the grounds of a beautifully restored 17c Masseria and fully organic olive farm situated in the hills with wonderful views of Monopoli and the sea. The property has beautiful private gardens, terraces and swimming pool (14x7mtrs). There are two B&B rooms, & a garden apartment all on site. For larger groups the self catering accommodation will sleep up to 16.
Villa & Masseria Due Torri offers luxury style accommodation in the form of self catering or bed and breakfast to suit all needs. It benefits from full central heating and constant hot water provided by solar panels on the roof. Rooms are spacious and windows fitted with fly screens. Air conditioning is provided in the Villa and in Garden Room 2 at the Masseria,but not in the rest of the Masseria as the walls are very thick and the temperature remains cool. The Villa is equipped with a welcome guide, free WiFi, restaurant recommendations, books, maps, tourist information, DVDs,games, toys,beach and picnic items. A shopping service is available, on receipt of a list we will stock the fridge etc. for your arrival. Just as a bonus, at the side of the villa, some steps lead up onto a wonderful roof terrace boasting a super panoramic sea view - great for sunbathing by day and counting the stars by night - who could want for more?
There is a wide range of beaches from sandy bays to rocky coves and numerous coastal walks, as well as fabulous birdwathing at the nature reserve along the coast. There is a mixture of private lidos (require a small charge) or public beaches. The nearest is 10 minutes drive away in Monopoli, which has a historic centre, port and beaches, sports facilities, playgrounds and water sports. In the late evening many of the lidos become discos. The nearest village is Cozzana, just a few minutes drive or 20 minute walk. Within 30 minutes drive there are many local towns and places of interest which include some of the largest caves in Europe, Valle of Itria, the Trulli at Alborebello, the ruins of Egnazia, Zoo Safari in Fasano, horse riding and golf at Saveletri. There are many local bars, restaurants, shops, supermarkets and banks within 1 km to 5km. Every local town has a weekly market.
