Masseria MontanariHoliday Home
At Masseria Montanari in Carpignano Salentino, the masseria's own practices open up to the group: the monthly moon circle, the breath-and-energy day with Davide and Valentina, the energy weekend with two nights at the masseria. The first dates open in the coming months: leave your name and you receive them first.
The circles are born from the meeting of two practices that already have a home at the masseria: the breath of Davide, breath coach and facilitator we work with, and the energy of Valentina, fourth-level Reiki Master and astrology consultant we work with. On their own they are one-to-one sessions; together, and in a group, they become something else: a circle.
The first dates will open in the coming months. This page describes the three formats and puts you on the list: when the calendar is ready, you receive it before anyone else.
A monthly gathering of about two hours, on the new or full moon, in the vaulted hall: guided breathing, a round of group reiki, a reading of the month's sky and sharing in the circle. Open to everyone, no experience needed.
Keep me posted →A full day at the masseria, from 10 to 18, with Davide and Valentina: functional breathing in the morning, a long break in the garden, group reiki and a closing circle in the afternoon. For 8 to 12 people, with a shared lunch.
Tell me about the first date →Two nights at the masseria for your exclusive use, Friday to Sunday, for 12 to 16 people: breath, reiki, the group's sky and evenings under the stars. Lodging included: sleeps 16, kitchen, garden, and no other guests around.
Ask for the programme →Leave your name and email and tell us which format interests you. When the calendar opens, you receive it first.
We publish the first dates of the moon circle and the day, with limited places: those on the list have 48 hours' priority to book.
You arrive at the masseria, we welcome you with a tea, and we enter the vaulted hall. For the weekend, the apartments are ready from Friday afternoon.
Leave your details: when the dates are ready you receive them first, and for the weekends we send you the full programme. No spam, no commitment.

A circle needs a circle: the vaulted hall, with its gathered floor plan and the acoustics of stone, is made for sitting in a ring. Outside, the garden and the olive trees for the long break, and the sky of the Grecìa Salentina, without lights, for the evenings.
For the weekends the masseria is yours for exclusive use: six apartments, 16 sleeping places, kitchen and garden. No other group, no timetable but your own.
The circles grow out of the masseria's two practices: discover the Breath and the Energy.
No. The moon circle and the day are designed for beginners: breathing guided step by step, group reiki received seated or lying down, open sharing (you may simply listen). Comfortable clothes are all you need.
Prices will be announced with the first dates, to the list first. As a guide, in Italy an evening circle usually costs 20-30 €, a full day 90-120 € and a two-night residential weekend 350-450 € per person including lodging. We will stay within those ranges.
Yes: two nights in the masseria's six independent apartments, 16 sleeping places for the group's exclusive use, with kitchen and garden. Meals are arranged together: shared cooking, catering or a restaurant in the village.
Yes. From 8 people, the circle, the day or the weekend can be reserved for a group of friends, a community or a team: choose the date with us and the masseria is all yours.
Comfortable clothes, a light blanket or shawl, a water bottle and, for the weekend, what you would take to a country house. Mats and cushions are provided. For intense breathing practices you will fill in a short questionnaire before starting.
A question, a group that wants a date, or you just want to be told when it starts: write to us. We reply within a few hours, no commitment.
