Hotel Sierra Silvana, Puglia

About Hotel Sierra Silvana

Dotted amongst pine-covered hills, the Hotel Sierra Silvana's comfortable accommodation is housed in several low-lying buildings (of which the main hotel comprises) as well as in characterful trulli houses.

If you are looking for an unique experience, the trulli guestrooms, dating back to the 13th century, are in clusters of 3 per house and are set either in the hotel's gardens or just outside the hotel grounds.

Adjacent to the main building is the hotel's bar, with contemporary wicker furnishings on a pleasant terrace overlooking the swimming pool. All public areas and guestrooms have been renovated, giving the hotel a fresh and elegant feel, and there is a lovely contrast between the more contemporary main hotel building and the ancient trulli houses.

The modern Hotel Sierra Silvana is also well situated for visits to Alberobello, Ostuni and the grottoes of Castellana.

About Puglia

Puglia, an awe-inspiring region steeped in rustic mystery and culinary legend is baked by the noonday sun and caressed by murmuring waves. A sun-scorched vista depicted by rugged and densely wooded mountains, fertile plains and a thriving coastline, refreshed by rolling surf, tranquil rock pools and perpendicular fishing harbours.




MONOPOLI

The delightful coastal resort of Monopoli boasts a lively port and pretty historic centre. Its large central piazza is lined with bars and cafés.

TORRE CANNE

With its beach of soft, golden sand and excellent spa facilities, the attractive seaside resort of Torre Canne was once a little fishing village. It is well-placed for visiting the 'White City' of Ostuni, just 11 miles (18km) away.

SAVELLETRI DI FASANO

Known for its excellent seafood, Savelletri di Fasano is a fishing village, ideally situated for exploring both the coastline and interior landscapes of central Puglia.

ALBEROBELLO

The 'trulli' capital of Puglia, Alberobello is decorated by these unusual whitewashed limestone dwellings, whose conical roofs create a dramatic skyline.

SELVA DI FASANO

Between the sea and the hills lying on Puglia's fertile plains is the whitewashed town of Fasano.

OSTUNI

The exquisite little town of Ostuni is situated close to a tranquil stretch of coastline. It is known as the 'White City' because of its whitewashed streets and buildings.

LECCE

From the heart of the deep south of Italy, Lecce is to the Baroque as Florence is to the Renaissance. It is famous for its wealth and finest examples of Baroque architecture.

OTRANTO

Greek in origin, the walled city of Otranto is not to be missed. It also makes an ideal base for exploring the eastern peninsula and southern cape of Italy steeped with many golden, sandy beaches.
