Our Favourite

• Is the Tower Suite; a private suite in the historic tower features original vaulted stone ceilings, a comfortable sitting room with a grand fireplace, and a separate bedroom with an ensuite shower. Step onto the wide roof terrace (shared with the Tower 1658 room) and enjoy a quiet evening aperitivo overlooking the olive groves below, with views of the Adriatic Sea in the distance.

Wine & Dine

• La Corte is the main hotel restaurant with tables laid out over a pergola-shaded piazza. Serving a contemporary take on traditional Puglian cuisine. Many of the ingredients used each day are grown on the property and in the neighboring fields, with fresh mozzarella and organic beef sourced from local farms, and fish and seafood caught from the nearby coast.

• The Gioia Pool Bar, surrounded by orange, lemon, and olive trees is perfect for a laid-back lunch. They serve light Italian salads, healthy international dishes, and fresh pizzas straight from the oven.

• As evening cool washes over the Masseria, relax on pillows and rugs on the candlelit Apero terrace to enjoy fresh Negronis from the aperitivo bar, accompanied by the sounds of laid-back music and humming cicadas.

The Masseria & The Farm

• The traditional 17th-century farmhouse has been revived as a charming boutique hotel, surrounded by eight hectares of olive groves, citrus and almond trees, herb gardens, and vegetable beds. Once a stately country estate, the spirit of that time can still be felt – cheerful, exuberant, and proud.

The Grounds

• Centuries-old olive trees surround the Masseria, extending over eight hectares towards the coast. Enjoy a barefoot morning under the trees, and sample our organic olive oil made from the material’s harvests. Go for a walk in the olive groves and visit the material’s two adopted rescue donkeys that live there, enjoying an easy life relaxing in the sun.

Pizza Cooking Classes

• Join Pietro, their head chef, for a pizza cooking class at the material’s ancient stone oven. Pietro will help you pick fresh vegetables and herbs from the material’s gardens, and show you how to use his homemade dough to craft your base. Cook your pizza in the wood-fired oven, and enjoy your creations, crispy and bubbling, on a dining table set up on the piazza outside.
