Accommodation Description
Trullo Sant'Angelo
4 nights
Trullo Santangelo is a complex of Trulli with nine cones dating from the 18th century. Its founder, Maestro Altavilla, the first oboe of the New York Metropolitan, had identified a spiritual refuge and a happy oasis immersed in nature in this property. Initially renovated in 1990, it opened the doors to travelers from around the world in 2011, thanks to the contribution of the Elia family. For the fifth generation, Daniele and Sergio are committed today to providing high-quality services. The farm offers five solutions, each adapted to a specific profile of customers, from the double teal to the family apartment. It also has a swimming pool and a restaurant.
To highlight: the rooms are Trulli and Lamías (still typical but without a conical roof like the Trulli), authentic and original, with a charming touch.

Accommodation Description
Corte San Pietro
3 nights
Depuis plus de trente ans, les propriétaires de ce lieu magnifique parcourent le monde à la recherche du beau et du bien, rencontrant de nombreuses personnes tout au long de leur voyage. D’où l’idée de les accueillir à Matera chez eux, quelques-uns à la fois, dans un lieu qui parle silencieusement de l’histoire de l’homme. Ils ont ainsi restauré d’anciennes maisons troglodytes, et désormais leurs « écuries 5 étoiles » sont prêtes à vous accueillir.
Matera avec ses Sassi est l’une des plus anciennes villes du monde, les propriétaires vivent ici et offrent toute leur hospitalité dans ce lieu magique.
