HEAD TO ITALY FOR SPRING
STAY four nights for the price of three in Puglia this spring by taking advantage of Masseria Trapana’s season-opening offer.
The offer is available for stays from April 1 to 30, 2018, and also includes a glass of Prosecco on arrival.
This could mean a saving of between 250-450 euros, depending on the type of room.
Set in 60 hectares of olive groves just outside of Lecce in Puglia, Masseria Trapana is a restored 16th century farmhouse with nine individually designed suites incorporating many original features. Relax by the large pool with oversized sunbeds or grab a hammock in a shady corner of one of the six tranquil gardens.
Masseria Trapana is also launching a new wellness space this spring housed in the former olive pressing room and will offer restorative treatments using local ingredients.
The spa will feature three treatment rooms, a plunge pool, relaxation area and a small cinema room. Yoga classes will also be available.
Rooms start from €250/£219 per room, per night based on a Courtyard Room including breakfast. See trapana.com
