Selva di Fasano holidays

Holidays to Selva di Fasano show off Puglia at its most authentic – the landscape is a patchwork of whitewashed trulli huts and tree-filled forests.

The town in the trees

Selva di Fasano may be small, but what it lacks in size, it makes up for in nature. The Italian word ‘selva’ means ‘wood’, and the town’s name will make a lot of sense when you arrive – almost every villa-lined street’s trimmed with trees. The surrounding countryside’s a pick ‘n’ mix of forests, too. If you fancy swapping nature for history, neighbouring Fasano’s spot on. In a day’s sightseeing, you can tick off pre-Roman churches and grand palaces.
