Masseria Protomastro Hotel, near Bari

The three-star Masseria Protomastro Hotel, near Bari, is brilliantly located for use as a base from which to explore the region of Puglia, with its diverse architecture, culture and cuisine. Surrounded by fields of crops, Le Murge offers peaceful respite, away from the bustle and heat of the towns and beaches. This tranquil hotel with its large and luxurious swimming pool is a great place to relax and unwind. There is a selection of single and double accommodation and all rooms come equipped with air conditioning, telephone, TV, mini bar and shower room. The fantastic restaurant serves local and regional cuisine, made from the finest ingredients, all of which can be enjoyed in the beautiful surrounding gardens. With outdoor play areas for children (not to mention the pool) and sporting and leisure activities available, this hotel has ensured that the comfort of all its guests is its main priority.

Rising gently from the Adriatic coast of Puglia in southern Italy, Le Murge - a low limestone plateau - dominates the landscape to the south and west of Bari. Aside from the bustling port and profusion of bars and shops in Bari (southern Italy's second largest city), perhaps the most extraordinary local attraction is the Castel del Monte. This, the most fascinating of Puglia's castles, was built by Frederick in the 1240s. The Castel is a high, isolated fortress precisely built around an octagonal courtyard in two storeys of eight rooms. Its purpose has remained a mystery for centuries and the mathematical precision with which it was constructed continues to baffle and intrigue.
