Situated at the heel of Italy’s boot, Puglia's laid-back atmosphere offers a welcome contrast to Tuscany's bustling streets and the Amalfi Coast's crowded shores. Belinda shares her top five reasons why Puglia is an ideal choice for those seeking an alternative region to explore in Italy.
Nestled in Savelletri di Fasano, where the hills of the Itria Valley meet the Adriatic Sea, Borgo Egnazia is designed to evoke the authentic charm of a Puglian village. Complete with manicured gardens, private pools and serene terraces - this property redefines a luxury holiday in Italy.
Puglia’s abundance of fresh, seasonal produce makes it a gastronomic haven. Visit olive farms that account for 40% of Italy's olive oil or mozzarella farms offering specialities such as Burrata di Andria.
Puglia’s rugged coastline and unspoilt beaches embody la dolce vita. Explore hidden coves, pristine sands, and picturesque fishing villages, all framed by crystal-clear waters.
Puglia is a history lover’s dream. Visit the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Matera, the world’s oldest continuously inhabited city, Lecce’s distinct Baroque architecture, and the fairytale-like Trulli houses of Alberobello.
Puglia offers an authentic Italian experience with its slower pace of life. This tranquil region allows visitors to unwind, surrounded by nature's beauty and away from the crowds.
