Pistola Garden, in Puglia between Alberobello and Fasano, offers a place to walk, see flowers and plants native to Puglia, enjoy a picnic, or just relax. Set on the grounds of a masseria, or old farm estate, Giardini Pistola also has vineyards and a farm shop where you can buy snacks, their wine and other products produced on the estate or nearby farms such as olive oil and honey. They will also provide pre-ordered meals from local restaurants nearby that you can eat in the picnic area.
During the summer months, special events are held in the gardens including music, pasta making classes, wine tasting, and guided walking tours of the gardens and estate. You can also book the spacious gardens for your own special event (for up to 100 people).
Visiting Pistola Garden makes a nice escape from touring Puglia’s busy cities and towns and gives guests the opportunity to experience the beautiful Puglia countryside.
