Architecture, Temples and Castles

 

 

Impressive Greek and Roman temples, ornate Baroque towns, unique ‘trulli' houses, Moorish tangles of white streets and castles straight out of a story book.

What is one of the first things we think of about Italy? Fabulous architecture and historic monuments, pretty little towns and every corner crammed with thousands of years of history. The South is really exciting, because, touched by more civilisations than parts further north, it is still largely undiscovered and holds so many surprises.

Where else can you see stone trulli houses, with their conical roofs? Where else can you visit remote hermitages, built into cliff faces? Where else could you see the most exquisite Roman mosaics in Europe? Where else would you find an ancient amphitheatre with a backdrop of a volcano? Where else could you visit a group of temples, once described as “Athens with improvements”? Where else could you marvel at the “Florence of the South”?

Take a theme and let us help you plan your own personal tour. Do it at your own pace. Stay in some fantastic places. Let us advise you how to relax and enjoy your trip, as well as how to discover the best of the South.

Stay in Trullo Zingaro or Masseria Marzalossa and explore the glistening white, Moorish towns of Puglia. Stay in the historic Villa Dragonetti and visit the castles of Abruzzo. Stay in Il Glicine, a cottage with a pool, in the very heart of Sicily, and discover real gems, which most visitors never see. Stay in a range of lovely hotels and tour the prehistoric stone “nuraghi” of Sardinia. Stay in the converted monastery of I Monaci and other agritourist estates and find the hilltop towns of Calabria.
