Masseria Montenapoleone is an agriturismo farm-stay property located in Contrada Montenapoleone in the Fasano municipality, Brindisi province, Apulia. The property occupies a traditional Puglian masseria estate in the agricultural hinterland of Fasano, an area of ancient olive groves, dry-stone walls, and limestone countryside characteristic of the Valle d'Itria and the Fasanese plateau. Fasano town is approximately five kilometres distant, and the Adriatic coast around Savelletri di Fasano is reachable by car in ten to fifteen minutes.
The masseria offers rooms and family suites housed in converted stone farm buildings. Rates begin at approximately €120 per night for double rooms, with family suites from €180. Accommodation is styled in a rustic-modern manner, incorporating whitewashed stone, wooden beams, and local ceramics, with modern comforts including air conditioning, private bathrooms, and Wi-Fi. An outdoor pool set within the estate grounds is available for guests in the warmer months, surrounded by olive trees and the quiet of the Puglian countryside.
Farm produce from the estate—olive oil, seasonal vegetables, preserved foods—is available for guests to purchase and features in the meals prepared on site. Cooking classes focusing on traditional Puglian techniques such as pasta rolling, bread baking, and the preparation of regional preserves are offered on the property, typically led by family members. The agriturismo dining experience—whether a communal dinner or a guided farm breakfast—is a core element of the stay, with food prepared from what the farm and local suppliers provide seasonally.
Masseria Montenapoleone is well positioned for day trips through the Valle d'Itria: Alberobello, Locorotondo, and Martina Franca are each within twenty to thirty kilometres. A private car is essential, as public transport connections to the masseria are minimal.
