Brilliant Holiday

The villa and its gardens/grounds were magnificent. We were two family’s with young children and there was so much to keep everyone entertained including a secret playground and a grotto! Would love to return.

Fantastic property

It was our first time in Puglia and this property came just as advertised to make it a memorable trip for my family. The property was clean and well maintained and the pool was great. Maria the property manager was also fantastic and very helpful and accessible. Would highly recommend staying at this property. Thanks Ian!

Idyllic Stay

The property, furnishings and pool more than delivered for my family and I (5 of us). All communication and assistance from Maria the property manager was truly excellent along with the owner’s incredibly useful, detailed and accurate notes about the local area. The pool is large and very well maintained. I could not recommend more strongly. Thank you so much.

What a find!

We first booked in 2020 but were unable to make it out until June 2022. Ian the owner was so understanding and helpful before the trip and Maria is an angel…organising anything you need and a great font of knowledge and ideas about the area (as well as her mother being a fantastic cook, which we experienced at the house). A wonderful spot with every convenience in a beautifully furnished house with great facilities…what more could you ask for?

Exceeded Expectations

The reviews that I read were accurate. It’s beautiful and spacious and luxurious. We had everything we needed. A gourmets Kitchen and which even had a little Limoncello in the freezer. Nice bedrooms and luxurious showers. A beautiful pool area with an outdoor kitchen and your own cave. We had memorable evenings and days and Maria was super helpful in every way. Someone abandoned a sweet puppy on us and Maria was super awesome in helping us deal with that. Ian was very gracious as well. Maria found a home for the puppy within 2 days and was a lifesaver, literally. Awesome place. Just wish we could have stayed longer. In Italy for 3 weeks and this Masseria was by far the best place we stayed!

WOW !!!!!

An amazing house just outside the charming town of Ceglie Messapica. The house is very spacious and very well equipped, it swallowed six of us. The House information folder is very, very comprehensive and the recommendations are good. The pool is lovely with plenty of loungers and options for shade. The outside eating area is a delight and made for magical evenings when the weather permitted!! Inside is also a good eating area. Rooms are all very comfortable and well equipped. Maria, who manages the house, is a star. Great communicator and nothing was too much trouble, such a plus. Ceglie is a lovely town with good shops, very good restaurants and very nice for an evening stroll before and/or after dinner. Ceglie is an easy 5 minute drive from the house. We parked in a square on the way into town (Via Fratelli Bandiera?) from where the main Piazza is a five minute walk. We also had the benefit of 3 adorable kittens during our stay!!!

Beautiful Property

Maria, the property manager was exceptional. She even helped pay a parking ticket. Would like to have spent more time around the pool, but there was a lot to do in around the area. Would return any time.

This is a fabulous and inspiring property with an abundance of space. The location is excellent and in perfect proximity to access all the best areas you would want to explore. The customer service and care from both the owner and the property manager was of the highest level.

Wonderful week-long stay!

My family had a wonderful week-long stay, and we could have stayed even longer! The owner, Ian, was super responsive ahead of our stay, and sent plenty of recommendations to us. And Maria, the property manager, made sure we had everything we needed for a great trip! We even did 2 amazing & delicious chef dinners at the house (highly recommend)! Our group was 6 adults and 2 infants, and we had plenty of space in the house, and the location was great for the many day trips we took around Puglia - we went to 8 different cities in 8 days - there's so much to see! The kitchen was well stocked and we were able to cook at home many of the nights we were there (but obviously preferred when we were able to have chefs come cook for us :) and the property surrounding the home is just beautiful. It was a little too cold for us to actually go into the pool while we were there, but we did enjoy spending time out by the pool and playing bocce ball while sipping on afternoon Aperol spritzes! Overall, we had a great time staying in this awesome, historic home, and we would love to come back again in the future!

Wunderschöne historische Villa - Oase für Familie und Freunde

Perfekter Support (schnell, professionell, freundlich und nett) vom Eigentümer und der Betreuung vor Ort. Die Masseria ist ein sehr gelungener Mix von Tradition und Moderne. Man fühlt sich einfach gut und relaxed. Ein großer, wunderschöner mediterraner Garten und darin eingebettet eine tolle Pool Area ergeben einen besonderen Charme. Vor oder nach einem Trip zu den Top Sehenswürdigkeiten Apuliens einige Bahnen im 15,30 Meter langen Becken zu ziehen oder einfach zu chillen und dabei die Sonne und den Wein Süditaliens genießen, kann man nur empfehlen.

Séjour extraordinaire, stupendo!

Nous avons passé une semaine fantastique entre amis et avec enfants à la Masseria San Michele. La maison est merveilleusement bien décorée et parfaitement agencée pour y cohabiter à 9 et l immense jardin aux multiples essences est un havre de paix. La multitude d espaces à vivre à l intérieur comme à l’extérieur nous a permis de changer régulièrement d environnement lors des repas. D autre part, le coin piscine parfaitement aménagé a ravi aussi bien nos ados que leurs parents! Notre seul regret: ne pas être resté une semaine de plus!

Splendida Villa in Valle d’Itria

Siamo stati in questa splendida Villa dal 1 al 15 agosto. Due famiglie con bambini e ragazzi dai 10 ai 18 anni. Villa con interni arredati con cura e un giardino grandissimo e incantevole. Spazi sia sul fronte che sul retro per mangiare o rilassarsi. Piscina grande distanziata dalla Villa ma organizzata benissimo con cucina completa e grande tavolo per mangiare. Lontano dalla ressa estiva della Puglia, la posizione consente di poter scegliere se recarsi alle spiagge dell’Adriatico o dello Ionio in base ai venti o di raggiungere le bellissime località vicine come Ostuni, Locorotondo, Martina Franca, Putignano.

Wonderful!

Our group of six adults (3 couples) thoroughly enjoyed our idyllic week at this beautiful masseria! It is spacious, comfortable and visually stunning, with lovely areas both indoors and out for gathering. The property is quiet, yet well-situated for day trips to nearby towns. The collection of books and reference materials was impressive, and Maria was attentive and helpful. This property exceeded our expectations.

Ferien in Apulien

Wir waren 6 Erwachsene und 3 Kinder und hatten ausreichend Platz im Haus. Die Küche ist gut ausgestattet, so dass wir auch häufig gekocht haben. Der Pool liegt etwas entfernt vom Haus, war aber leider nicht geheizt. Anfang September schon sehr frisch, da es Nachts schon abgekühlt hat. Zu dieser Jahreszeit hatten wir sehr mit Schnacken zu kämpfen und leider gibt es an den Türen keine Moskitonetze, so dass wir sie immer geschlossen halten mussten. Supermarkt und Restaurants sind in der Nähe. Zum Meer fährt man ca. 45 Minuten. Der Aufenthalt war sehr schön

Magical week in Puglia

We spent a week at this lovely, private stone residence amidst beautiful vegetation, olive trees, stone walls and an herbal scented path full of flowers and diverse plants leading to a gorgeous pool. The location is within minutes of a very charming, culinary-oriented town and not far from many others that should be visited. There are many places to sit and enjoy the property or to dine outdoors. The residence is historic, full of character and charm, but with every convenience and comfort. The owner supplies a fabulous collection of very helpful information regarding nearby restaurants, towns to visit and beaches. The gracious caretaker, Maria, is readily available for any questions or requests that may arise. In particular, she arranged for two fantastic dinners of typical pugliese dishes to be served at the house for us. One of the most satisfying and memorable trips I have ever taken.

Prachtig huis, mooie tuin en vriendelijke eigenaar

Met 6 volwassenen en 2 kinderen hebben we de herfstvakantie gevierd in het prachtige huis van Ian. Het huis is comfortabel en mooi ingericht. Ian heette ons welkom( er stond een welgevuld welkomspakket klaar). De huisbewaarster, Maria, was ook vriendelijk en reageerde snel op onze vragen.We hebben een heerlijke week gehad in Puglia , mede door het mooie huis! Veel dank aan Ian !

Excellent

A beautiful and luxurious house with a family friendly feel and great pool in an interesting area with good beaches and brilliant restaurants if you do your research. All our party of eight aged 26 - 60+ loved it! It was very well equipped and the gardens were especially good with lots of places to sit and enjoy the fig and olive trees and mediterranean planting. A little sneaky peak of paradise!

Beautiful space with incredible charm

We spent a week at Masseria San Michele this summer. The home is exquisite with breath taking beautifully kept grounds. The grotto is something my family will never forget. Maria met us at the house and was incredibly gracious and available by text whenever we had a question or need. One evening her lovely mother cooked for us and it was a feast. We spend a lot of time in Italy but this was our first trip to Puglia and we were struck by the stark beauty and the generosity of the people. We can't wait to return.
