MASSERIA
A home-like small relais, an ancient Masseria surrounded by olive trees, a comfortable retreat with a modern look and a relaxed atmosphere where you can enjoy the true Puglia.
Nestled in the heart of southern Salento in the Levantine region of Puglia, a short drive to the beaches of the Adriatic coast and to the beaches of Ionian coast, the Masseria (farmhouse) opens up on its picturesque landscape of red earth, the realm of the ancient twisted olive trees, and affords a great range of sensual pleasures: from a dip in the pool, to savoring local flavors and delicacies, to sauntering along sun-drenched country paths. The property, is completely surrounded by a stone wall to protect the guests’ privacy
Upon arriving at the entrance to the Masseria, visitors are greeted by the scents of the citrus fruit orchard, the colors of the surrounding gardens, the peace and quiet of the lush Mediterranean shrubbery, and the cool shade of the tall holm oak trees.
Built in the eighteenth century the farmhouse has been completely renovated in local stone, tuff and marble from Trani, showing great respect and understanding for its history and its architectural features, while providing classy and upbeat furnishings – from the porch hosting the big blue breakfast table to the cozy lounges scattered around the property – to indulge in the sophistication of sipping a cocktail under the star-studded sky, overlooking the landscape of Salento.
With only 6 rooms and one cottage, the setting is extremely intimate. Guests are encouraged to pick fresh, seasonal produce from the kitchen garden and will enjoy homemade jams and preserves from the orange, lemon, fig, apricot, peach, and cherry trees at breakfast.
Every room has private access to the garden and features air conditioning, hair dryer, TV, private bathroom.
The large swimming pool is a welcome respite in the summer months.
From the Masseria you can reach in few minutes by walk the small nearby village and you will find there a good restaurant located inside the ancient Castle, the pizzeria , shops with gastronomic local products.
