Masseria Trapanà

While in Puglia, Australian hotelier Rob Potter-Sanders viewed countless masserie in search of the perfect property, yet kept returning to the first one he saw – despite it having not a single bathroom, pipe or cable. Today, the once-abandoned 16th-century farmhouse outside Lecce devotes itself to two things: privacy and gardens. Most suites come with a walled courtyard and an outdoor bathtub for two under the trees. The old olive-pressing cave is now an underground spa with a magnesium pool. With hammocks strung in sleepy corners, your hardest decision will probably be choosing which one to nap in. See you later in the orange grove for dinner?
