Masseria Torre Coccaro offers luxury accommodation in Puglia for a vacation or south Italy trip full with spa, restaurant, cooking class, golf and meeting facilities. The masseria dates from the 16th century and is now a superb five star sea resort offering luxury holiday accommodation along the Apulian coast.

There are 33 rooms, all with their own small private garden and immersed in the antique olive trees of the Fasano plain. Two stunning rooms are actually situated in old caves. One is a splendid suite with its own orange orchard and private swimming pool made from an antique water reservoir. Other rooms are located in the old tower where cherries and tomatoes used to be hung out to dry for the winter.

Look out for the little spy-windows which helped to spot potential attacks by Turkish pirates. The Masseria Torre Coccaro is an old watchtower which became fortified following centuries of Saracen attacks. The masseria subsequently became a working farm and small village. You can still find the chapel and workers houses near the courtyard

The remaining rooms are placed inside the courtyard of the Masseria and there is also a beautiful swimming pool with jacuzzi and built like a natural pond amongst the olive trees and palms. The main 150 seat meeting room is situated in the old olive oil pressing room placed in an antique cellar.
