Beautiful villa with great hosts!
We had an amazing time staying at Massimo’s place. The villa is even more beautiful in person and was well stocked, clean, and comfortable. It was central to a bunch of other nearby places on our list to visit and centrally located in the town. Massimo was a great host and very communicative and helpful throughout our stay as well as during our trip planning process. Can’t recommend staying here enough, and would love to come back to stay again. His place made our trip so special!

Traumunterkunft; alle Wünsche wurden komplett erfüllt.
Ab der ersten Sekunde fühlt man sich zu Hause. Die Inhaber Marina und Massimo sind absolut tolle Gastgeber mit einem Einsatz denn ich noch nie erlebt habe. Sie sind immer zu Stelle wenn man sie braucht. Die Dimora, die Zimmer, die Küche, der Pool, der Garten einfach alles bis ins Detail gepflegt. Die Privatsphäre genial. Am liebsten würde ich hier einziehen. Ein herzliches Dankeschön von uns allen für dieses Erlebnis und die tolle Zeit die wir verbringen durften. Wir kommen wieder….❤️

Luxury stay in a friendly village
Our group of seven friends had an excellent stay in this luxurious and spacious masseria. The property has been renovated to a very high standard with lovely pool, garden and outdoor dining areas. Elegant furnishings and art works have been carefully chosen to complement the villa. The village is quiet and within easy driving distance of major towns and sights in the region. Massimo is a charming and helpful host who made us feel very welcome. Kira and Dallas and friends

Beautifully presented Masseria
The property is very chic and the decor is impressive. The bedrooms are large and comfortable with ensuites. The grounds are well kept and the pool a welcome addition even in September. The town is on your doorstep and is very authentic with bars , bakery, cafes, pizzeria and a trattoria within easy walking distance. If you are looking for nightlife then this is not the town. It is very peaceful and friendly. The host, Massimo is very charming and very proud of his property and rightly so. If you love to cook as we did, the kitchen could have better utensils such as sharp knives and decent pans, but there are plenty of plates, bowls etc. Our group also thought that it would be nice to have an outdoor couch and chairs. But that is only a small suggestion. I would recommend this as a good base for sightseeing around the south of Puglia.

GORGEOUS MASSERIA IN SOUTH PUGLIA
We had a great week of vacation at Massimo's! The house is very spacious, beautifully decorated with great taste, the garden is sublime and very well maintained, the pool is very nice, once inside, you don't want to get out of it anymore. Massimo lives right next door and is very responsive to requests, he provides you with all the necessary recommendations for a perfect stay. I highly recommend this home!

Oasi di piacere nell'ardente Salento
In quattro coppie di amici abbiamo soggiornato nella masseria di Massimo nella prima settimana di Luglio di quest'anno , ed è stata una piacevolissima sorpresa dopo un viaggio in auto estenuante. In questo paesino del leccese , circondato da una campagna arsa da un sole pazzesco , una chicca di architettura e tranquillità ci ha cullato per una settimana ad ogni ritorno da impegnative giornate marine. Perchè il bello dell'Antica Dimora è anche questo : la posizione strategica al centro del Salento, che ti consente di visitare , facendo poca strada , tutti gli angoli di questa incredibile parte d'Italia , dallo scoglio adriatico alle sabbie ioniche alla straordinaria punta di Leuca . Un fresco giardino , una rinfrescante piscina , il tutto nel silenzio più assoluto .Complimenti Massimo , per noi hai fatto bingo!!!!! Emilio & compagnia dalla Maremma .A proposito, anche da noi c'è tutto questo, e non certamente di qualità inferiore . Viva l'Italia , tutta bellissima , e noi fortunati a viverci .

Incantevole masseria
Appena varcato L ingresso mi sono ritrovata in questa magnifica masseria tipicamente salentina. Sia gli arredi interni che esterni la rendono davvero incantevole!! Ogni cosa è curata nel minimo dettaglio e questo rende L atmosfera davvero unica, ben oltre ogni mia aspettativa. Non ultima da evidenziare la cortese ed attenta accoglienza del proprietario che ha reso il soggiorno mio e della mia famiglia indimenticabile. Da non perdere!!!

Fantastico posto !!! Charme ovunque
Il soggiorno in questa masseria e' stato a mio avviso spettacolare .Il gusto e la qualita della struttura arredata secondo l eleganza che si addice ad un edificio del 700 e' difficile a trovarsi abitualmente Soprattutto abbinata alla gentilezza e disponibilità del propietario e del personale che ti coccolano in questo magico contesto. Ci tornero' a breve e la consiglio a tutti i piu cari amici.

Aggiornamento
Sono tornata per il secondo anno consecutivo in questa splendida dimora, e non posso che confermare il mio giudizio più che positivo. Ho trovato alcuni cambiamenti, che vorrei segnalare. Il proprietario ha restaurato un'altra ala della casa, dove si è trasferito. Non sarebbe aperta al pubblico, ma qualche volta, di fronte a una richiesta rispettosa e non invadente, Massimo si lascia convincere e mostra una delle più belle e meglio arredate dimore salentine che abbia visto: vale la pena di provare! Come ho scritto l'anno scorso, però, anche le altre ali della casa, adibite a bed and breakfast, trasudano buon gusto, eleganza, cura raffinata e mai banale del particolare. Alle camere dello scorso anno se ne sono aggiunte due nuove, la Don Gaetano e la Donna Palmira. La prima non ho potuto vederla perché occupata, mentre posso parlare della seconda perché ci ho dormito! È' una stanza piena di fascino e molto particolare: il letto matrimoniale e' posto in un'ampia nicchia, e da' la sensazione di dormire avvolti in un abbraccio. Il bagno e' molto bello e un po' malizioso, con le sue quinte in cristallo e acciaio. Ultima novità, la colazione: ferma restando la possibilità di consumarla anche alle otto del mattino, quest'anno si è creata la consuetudine di ritrovarsi tutti, ospiti e padrone di casa, alle 9.30-10, intorno al desco. È' l'occasione per conoscersi, stringere amicizie, socializzare, chiacchierare, scambiarsi impressioni sul Salento. Il padrone di casa fornisce in quesi casi consigli, indicazioni, numeri di telefono di ristoranti e stabilimenti... Insomma, un'altra vacanza piacevolissima!

Raffinata atmosfera del Salento
Questa elegante masseria, pur dotata di ogni moderno comfort, riporta indietro nel tempo.. Essa, infatti, esprime il sapore e l'atmosfera tipica del Salento. Quiete, relax e cura dei particolari, fanno di questa antica dimora, il luogo ideale dove soggiornare. Management eccellente. Un particolare ringraziamento alla Governante Carmen, attenta, professionale e sempre sorridente.

What a lovely discovery. A handsome Man and equally beautiful relais!😊we had an amazing time staying at "Dimora dei giardini segreti'' we felt like princesses in our beautiful rooms and in a luhs garden with swimming pool. A truly elegante oasis in the Salento. It's one of those places you prefer to keep to yourself selfishly but i'm writing my first review ever because It deserves to succed and i'm sure It will

Un incredibile oasi segreta
E' il secondo anno che trascorro presso questa incantevole dimora. Ed ogni anno si scopre qualcosa di nuovo. Massimo ha fatto di questa Masseria un' opera d'arte vivente che ogni anno si arricchisce di nuove stanze, nuovi dettagli, nuovi arredi dal gusto impeccabile. L' atmosfera che si respira è sempre di grande pace e piacevolezza. E le Colazioni preparate da Carmen alla mattina non possono che far iniziare la giornata con un sorriso. Grazie Massimo & Carmen per averci fatto trascorrere, anche quest'anno, dei bei momenti che porteremo con noi.... All'anno prossimo.

Ho già nostalgia
Ho già nostalgia, Abbiamo trascorso una bellissima settimana a giugno Un posto incantevole, un ambiente fantastico, stanze grandi ed accoglienti, dotate di tutte le comodità. La cura dei particolari e la raffinatezza dell’ambiente immersi nella pace del Salento rendono la vacanza indimenticabile. Cosa c’è di più bello, dopo tanto lavoro ….farsi coccolare in un ambiente elegante e pieno di fascino con una favolosa colazione, baciati dal sole, con il profumo degli agrumi …magari dopo una salutare nuotata??? Vacanze da ripetere … ve lo consiglio…

splendida location
situato in un piccolo paesino nell'entroterra salentino, la masseria nasconde un vero e proprio tesoro che dall'esterno è inimmaginabile. Splendide le camere, provviste di ogni comfort, con uno stile moderno e ben curato che abbraccia alla perfezione la storia dell'edificio. Spazi ampi e puliti, ma il vero gioiello è l'esterno. Un cortile\ frutteto curato nei minimi dettagli ed arricchito dalla doppia piscina. Consiglio a tutti di andarci. E' il luogo perfetto per staccare dalla vita di tutti i giorni e rinascere nella tranquillità della masseria
