Agriturismo Murà

Agriturismo Murà is a small, countryside agriturismo outside Altamura with a classic masseria feel and a calm, nature-first vibe in the Alta Murgia landscape.

Rural setting in the Alta Murgia: The property sits in Contrada Sgolgore along the Cassano–Altamura provincial road, surrounded by open fields and the rolling scenery typical of the Parco Nazionale dell’Alta Murgia. It’s a good base if you want quiet nights and daytime drives into Altamura’s historic center.

Rooms with restored character: Agriturismo Murà has six rooms created from repurposed farm spaces, including a former stable and an area once used for cheese aging. The renovation keeps original architectural elements while aiming for a comfortable, relaxed stay.

Breakfast with house-made touches: Mornings are centered on a generous breakfast that includes sweets and jams produced by Murà. It’s a simple perk that reinforces the farm-stay identity rather than a standard hotel routine.

On-site restaurant experience: The restaurant focuses on local, traditional cooking, making it easy to keep evenings low-effort after a day out. Guests often highlight attentive service and a warm, family-run welcome.

Equestrian-friendly facilities: A distinctive feature here is the focus on horses, with two stables offering multiple boxes plus dedicated tack and wash areas. This can be a real advantage for travelers arriving with horses or planning riding-focused days.

Trade-off: you’ll want a car: Because Agriturismo Murà is outside Altamura, getting to town, sights, and dinners elsewhere typically requires driving. The countryside location may feel isolated if you prefer walkable stays.

Trade-off: limited room inventory: With only six rooms, availability can be tight and the overall service offering is naturally smaller than a full-scale hotel. Planning ahead matters more here.
