An elegant stay in a charming Salentino country hotel set amidst rolling olive groves, with a serene pool and a beautiful beach nearby - includes breakfast, a welcome drink and cooking class discount
-
Rustic Italian idyll: Volito Rural Experience is perfectly situated to combine comfortable elegance with idyllic Salentino farmland. Stretching far and wide around the hotel are sun-drenched trees laden with olives and figs, and the balmy evening air is thick with the scent of aromatic herbs. The hotel’s buildings are forged from rough-hewn, rustic stone in the style of the surrounding brick-walled orchards - the charm of which is reflected in the guest rooms' weathered tiles and cypress green and terracotta hues.
-
Poolside bliss: When unwinding under the south Italian sun, take a plunge in the hotel’s stunning swimming pool, set in natural wooden panelling. Float in the crystal clear water with the soft hum of wildlife in the background, then dry off on a sunbed as you tuck into a riveting novel or float away to the chatter of a podcast.
-
Fine al-fresco eats: Pull up a chair for breakfast in the cool morning air, and choose from a range of homemade delights: think fruit-laden pastries, brioche buns with jam, fresh fruit and more. For lunch and dinner on the floral terrace, savour fresh, regional pasta dishes alongside seasonal produce and seafood served up in style – with plenty of options to satisfy vegetarian, vegan and gluten free diets.
How to get there
From Brindisi Salento Airport, it's a one hour and 20-minute taxi journey to the hotel. Due to the hotel's rural location, we recommend hiring a car so you can make the most of this idyllic region.
Good to knowPlease note, the Beach Club Lido Venere is located about six kilometres from the hotel, on the Ionian side of Salento, amidst golden sand, crystal-clear waters, and shallow seabeds, offering an ideal setting focused on comfort and relaxation. It can be reached by private transport or via a shuttle service (available for an additional fee). Beach station reservations (extra service fee) can be made directly at the hotel. The beach club is equipped with indoor and outdoor restrooms, coin-operated showers with hot and cold water. The beach club also features a bar, a restaurant, and a self-service area, ideal for a quick lunch.

The golden sands and aquamarine waters of Lido Venere beach are just down the road. Grab a sun lounger and umbrella and while away the hours, or enjoy a spot of yoga at your leisure. Sip your favourite cocktail or a fine Salentino wine from the region's beachside restaurant as you watch the sunset over the Ionian Sea.
For in-land adventures, perhaps opt to enjoy a horse riding tour or follow various hiking trails through the idyllic countryside. Stumble across the remote, old church Chiesa della Madonna di Vereto, and trace the remains of time-tested frescoes on its walls. The closest town of Patù is worth exploring for its rich history – dating all the way back to 924 BC!
