Masseria Spilafemine

Masseria Spilafemine – A Peaceful Retreat in the Turi Murgia

Surrounded by the green hills of the Murgia countryside, approximately 30 km from Bari, Masseria Spilafemine is a historic residence built in 1875. Constructed entirely from stone, it retains all the charm of a traditional fortified masseria, with sentry boxes, defensive loopholes and high perimeter walls enclosing the inner courtyard and creating an intimate, authentic setting steeped in history.

The surrounding countryside enjoys the Mediterranean climate typical of inland Puglia, with mild winters and warm summers. Olive, almond and cherry trees flourish across the landscape, transforming the scenery with every season.

Staying here is an experience of tranquillity and harmony. The elegant and welcoming rooms are equipped with air conditioning, private bathrooms and heating, making them ideal for a romantic escape or a relaxing stay among the hills.

Within the masseria’s garden, sheltered by its historic walls, guests can stroll, read or simply enjoy a moment of quiet contemplation — an ideal setting in which to discover the slower rhythm of country life.

The property is managed by Giovanni, who welcomes guests to this historic home with passion and discretion, sharing his love for nature and the traditions of Puglia.

Thanks to its convenient location, Masseria Spilafemine is also an excellent base for exploring authentic Puglia. The Castellana Caves, Alberobello, the Itria Valley and the coastline of Polignano a Mare are all within easy driving distance.
