A subterranean sanctuary in ancient Matera
Set amid the time-carved stones of magical Matera, Sant’ Angelo Matera promises an Italian escape like no other. At its every window, views unfold over centuries-old churches. While outside, staircases and labyrinthine alleyways invite exploration and adventure. Here you can bookend your day with an al-fresco breakfast overlooking the limestone sassi, and a cosy dinner within the otherworldly caves.

While La Torre is a strikingly contemporary two bedroom apartment at the foot of Madonna dell’Idris rock – complete with mini-spa and breathtaking views.
When it comes to dining, eat beneath the summer sky at destination restaurant Regia Corte, enjoying creative, traditionally inspired dishes with a twist, and an awe-inspiring view across the sassi from its terrace. Or below the stones at intimate Più Sud, tucking into pizza in the caves. Beyond eating, Sant’ Angelo Matera invites you to immerse yourself in its unique home. Get your hands floury and explore the region’s roots through its traditional recipes with a pizza or pasta making masterclass.
