Borgo Lu Puleu: A Stone Village Among Olive Groves

Instead of the coast, this small hotel sits inland near Perfugas, in the province of Sassari โ€“ a hamlet of restored stone houses among old olive groves.

Concept

The borgo consists of several traditional stone houses converted into guest rooms, surrounded by olive trees and quiet hill country โ€“ a deliberate contrast to the island's lively coastal towns.

Location

Perfugas lies inland in the province of Sassari, about an hour's drive from Olbia airport. Anyone visiting the northwest coast around Alghero or Stintino can easily fit in a detour here.

Good to know: this type of hotel is especially suited to travelers wanting to get to know rural Sardinia away from the coast โ€“ for example combined with a visit to the nuraghi inland.
Sardinia's interior is often skipped when planning a trip โ€“ yet it shows a completely different side of the island.

Who it suits

Suits anyone who prefers quiet, rural surroundings to a coastal location and has an interest in traditional Sardinian building styles.
