The big Italian house party

Where better than the beautiful Mezzogiorno - the south of Italy, to enjoy crystal clear sea and beautiful beaches; sunny climes and blue skies; picturesque hilltop towns and mediaeval castles; stunning seascapes and silvery-leafed olive trees; rolling hills and lush green valleys; exciting, vibrant cities; colourful markets, and of course, mouth-wateringly good food and wine?

Whether it’s for a big-birthday-bash, or a "chill-out" weekend with friends; or you would like to book a small hotel exclusively, or just a few rooms or apartments together, tour operator Long Travel can arrange a competitively-priced, tailor-made break to suit all needs. They have a variety of stylish ‘trulli’ houses, characterful old villas, fortified farmhouses, ‘agriturismi’ and many others, (with or without catering), so why not take over the whole place?!

Stylish 'trulli' houses for 12 with two pools, cost from £188 per person, per week (accommodation only).
