Govinda Shanty House is a
typical rural house built up by
the end of XIX century.
It stands out in a countryside, surrounded by olive
and almond groves, woods and pasture lands, in a
very rich area where architecture, art, culture,
nature and sun blend to offer peace and relax.
It is the ideal place for those who wish to relax,
taste the Mediterranean cuisine and the top local
wines and discover the wide cultural heritage Apulia
can offer: the castles of Emperor
Frederick II, the fortified “Masserie”
(large and ancient farmhouses), the typical “trulli”
(unusual circular rural stone constructions with
a cone-shaped roof and a pinnacle above), Castellana
Grottoes, medieval villages and
farmhouses, with the possibility to reach in a few
minutes the beautiful beach of Capitolo,
the wonderful cliffs of
Polignano a Mare, where you can
dive and enjoy the Adriatic
sea. In 15 minutes you can get to
the spa facilities of Torre
Canne and Torre
Guaceto naturalistic oasis on the
way to Brindisi.
