The Area
Masseria Belvedere sits in a panoramic position overlooking the Adriatic Sea between the bustling port city of Brindisi and the historic town of Carovigno. This latter has ancient roots dating back at least to Greek times and there's plenty to see there, including numerous churches, an impressive 15th-century castle, and a labyrinthine old town centre, not to mention a good selection of restaurants, cafés and shops.
Down on the coast below Masseria Belvedere is a series of Blue Flag beaches, including those at Torre Santa Sabina and Specchiolla. One of the main attractions of the area is the Torre Guaceto Nature and Marine Reserve, which is home to sandy beaches, dunes, woods, coral reefs, fields of posidonia, wetlands, walking trails and a wide variety of flora and fauna.
A 20-minute drive north of Masseria Belvedere is the utterly charming old town Ostuni, while a little further afield are the picturesque centres of the Valle d'Itria, including Cisternino, Locorotondo, Martina Franca, and Alberobello
Heading south into Salento, an easy drive (around 45 minutes) will take you to the magical baroque city of Lecce, which is well worth a day trip.

Masseria Belvedere is a spectacular villa in a great setting with wonderful service and amenities. An unforgettable property. We love to travel and see different places but we would return to Masseria Belvedere.

Everything about Masseria Belvedere is wonderful - the setting, views, house, staff, and location. The Masseria is beautifully and thoughtfully designed - our group of 11 people had plenty of space and we loved the communal areas for gathering at meals and cocktails. The house is within easy driving distance to Ostuni, Polignano a Mare, Alberobello, and Locorotondo, which were fun to explore. Thank you for a memorable anniversary celebration.
