A few kilometres from the sea, surrounded by orange trees and palms. A journey through Salento’s history and culture, among Lecce stone, gardens and genuine flavours.
Masseria Montanari is an ancient farmhouse built in Lecce stone and dating back to 1700, set in a natural landscape in the heart of Salento, a few kilometres from the sea and surrounded by orange trees and palms.
In the past the building was used for farming and livestock; today, after a long restoration, it has become the ideal place for your holidays in Salento.
It is made up of a main central building and a smaller secondary one, hosting in total six accommodations furnished in “arte povera” style and equipped with every comfort.
From the estate you can admire the countryside landscape. A large garden with welcoming spaces and two wood-fired barbecues await you for evening grills.
In this warm atmosphere there are also farm animals that will delight your children, and the chance to taste organic, genuine food.
Holiday stays, and the masseria in exclusive use for private events, retreats and team building — one group at a time.
Six accommodations between rooms and apartments, furnished in authentic Salento style.
