The agriturismo

The name Borgo D'Itria has been given to a complex of buildings (Masseria, Trulli and a small church of ancient origin, recently restored in full respect of tradition and according to the prescriptions of the superintendence), immersed in the land of property cultivated with vegetable garden, orchard and olive grove. The roots of the family that manages the farm are in this land, as ancient as those of its monumental olive trees.

The accommodation

The farm follows the biodynamic criteria of traditional agriculture. It is located in an area of hills at an altitude of about 400 meters. For the other ingredients we use only selected local producers we trust. So find the taste and the pleasure of eating the products of the Earth.

The landscape and the structure of Borgo d'Itria lend themselves to rest and meditate. The sweet landscape, the slow rhythms combined with the smells of nature can awaken ancient emotions that only during the holiday can be found.

Activities and surrounding

The whole Apulian coast, where wide beaches of fine sand alternate with stretches of cliffs, is renowned for its crystal clear waters and natural beauty. The nearest sea (about 7 km) to the village is the "Capitolo" coastline. Savelletri, another locality close by, is suitable for those who love the cliffs.

Alberobello, a town in the hinterland of Bari, is undoubtedly the capital of the Trulli: the old town is entirely made up of these particular pyramid-shaped buildings that make it unique in the world.
According to some studies, the trulli of Alberobello date back to the mid-fourteenth century; at that time, in fact, it was common to demolish and rebuild damaged buildings, rather than repair them.

But there is not only Alberobello. The countryside of the whole area is scattered with these typical buildings: just think of Cisternino, which stands in the so-called Murgia deiTrulli, counted, together with the nearby Locorotondo, among the most beautiful villages in Italy. The latter, called until the mid-nineteenth century "Luogorotondo" for the characteristic round shape of the town, is part of the Land of Trulli.
Absolutely not to be missed is a "trip to the centre of the earth", to the Castellana Caves (in the municipality of Castellana Grotte),where the Grave, the first and largest cave and the only one connected to the outside, then the Grotta Bianca will leave any visitor speechless.

The wildlife park Zoo Safari Fasano, opened on July 25, 1973 and now considered one of the largest in Italy and Europe, which houses dozens of animal species that move in semi-freedom on an area of 140 hectares that can be visited by car.Not far from Zoo Safari Fasano there is also Fasanolandia, an amusement park located in the municipality of Fasano, in the province of Brindisi, which boasts over 25 attractions, including shows and mechanical rides of various kinds, designed to ensure a full day of fun for the whole family.
