Puglia Ranches | Places to Stay in Puglia

April 27, 2023 Madelene Haan

A patchwork of vineyards and olive groves, dotted with whitewashed hill towns and sun-bronzed beaches—Italy’s southern heel has no shortage of photogenic landscapes. There are a few surprises, too, including the baroque city of Lecce and the Itria Valley, with its UNESCO-listed trulli houses.

Excellent place to stay in the middle of October. Excellent location - when you are there it seems like middle of nowhere - so wild, peaceful and charming, where you can enjoy long walks in the middle of the night, and you hear only the nature sounds and if you look to the sky - you can see the moon and the stars so clear, because the weather is perfect - no rain! From the other side - villa is close to sea, where you can have many water activities, close to many beautiful cities - Lecce, Otranto, Gallipoli. Very, very close to villa are many charming small cities, you should see them. The sea cost is so amazing - you can have there the white sand beaches and rocky beaches as well. Very, very beautiful nature around. Excellent service - the owner of the villa - Nino - is brilliant - so kind and welcoming, felt like at home there, got so special attitude. Everybody I met these days were so friendly and open persons. Really enjoyed time there. Big thanks to mother of Nino - she showed how to make Italian pasta – very exciting experience. The rooms were clean, towels change when you need. The best part - dinner. You should try the food they prepare there - excellent - very delicious. I was waiting for the dinner all day long - because of atmosphere, excellent food and vine. Many thanks to Nino, his family and friends. I had a wonderful time! Baiba from Latvia

not a trullo, but great place!!!

We stayed in a double room near the reception. The place was very clean, with big spaces. The roomo was pretty basic, good bed and good shower. The staff was kind and ready to help. Short walk or 2 minutes by car to town. The pool seemed great for the summer!

Masseria Incantalupi

Masseria Incantalupi, in Brindisi, is among the most beautiful rural estates in Puglia for a vacation near Brindisi and Ostuni.

Superb spot, lovely people

Reviewed By Eric120172

In the middle of olive groves, vineyards and citrus trees lies a pearl of a mansion, or actually a typical Puglianese ranch called the Masseria Incantalupi. A beautiful resort to relax by the pool, sleep in one of the spacious apartments or suites and enjoy the family’s own produced wine, olive oil and vegetables. Very tasteful apartments providing you everything you need. The thick stone mansion walls will keep you cool during the region’s hot summers. And the family who owns this property are lovely! Very dedicated to their customers, friendly and very easy going. It was a pleasure to stay here!

Masseria L'Uliveto

Farm located in an olive grove of 30000 square meters. Distance from Otranto and 1km from the sea. Organic agricultural production.

Stunning, Spanish-style masseria, fun for kids too with lots of animals & games!

Reviewed By truckeenic

We had a great time at Masseria L'Uliveto. It is conveniently located within a 20 to 25-minute walk of central Otranto. It is a beautiful, Spanish-style masseria & the rooms are gorgeous with rich woods & beam work, white walls & tasteful splashes of color. You have such privacy with almost your own villa & it's very relaxing to wander around the grounds. There's a garden & many animals-- including horses, goats, ducks, turkeys & chicken. I mentioned that they should highlight this more on the website as it's a huge hit for children. There's also a ping pong table & foosball table, which is additional fun for families! The breakfast is outstanding, you really cannot ask for more. They have cakes & brioche/croissants, cantucci, hard-boiled eggs, cheeses, meats, fruits, vegetables, all kinds of juices. The staff are friendly & helpful. The only issue we encountered is that the wi-fi would not work in our room for my iPhone or our Android phones. The team tried & tried to help us, but we had no luck & this was a little frustrating as I needed access to my phone. Otherwise, it was a very special place in an ideal location; we'd happily return again.

Quite a nice experience!

Reviewed By Andraniculaita1984

The place is really nice. The pool is big and the rooms are comfortable. The bathrooms are huge. The restaurant is quite tasty . The breakfast included both salty and sweet stuff. However the pool is opened for guests outside the hotel and quite often it can get pretty loud with teenagers and they also host quite a lot of parties there. The bathrooms could use some restructuring (shower hose hanger broken and hydro-massage not working) All in all the area is fantastic and really relaxing and we had an awesome time

Relais Masseria Rosa

Set amongst olive groves and perfumed vines, the hotel, dating back to the 1800's, offers an accurate and refined restoration of a Masseria (farmhouse) typical of this region. All our trulli apartments are ideal in order to enjoy a relaxed and peaceful stay thanks to the perfect integration between old atmospheres and new comfort, in the wonderful colors of the Apulian countryside.

Very tranquil and serene

Reviewed By Cassykooymans

We stayed in a very cute trullo which was very neat and decent. There were other guests but it’s like having your own appartment, very quiet and relaxing. The pool is quite big and also clean. Everything is nearby. Breakfast was very nice. We wanted some cheese and prosciutto the next day and that was absolutely no problem. We had our own little terrace and ate our breakfast in absolute privacy with the company of 2 lovely cats. I would suggest offering some drinks at arrival for that little bit extra. It would have been nice to have an aperol spritz at the pool. The fridge only contained one bottle of water. So you are inclined to do your own groceries and as we were only staying for 2 nights it is nice to have those things available in the masseria. The airconditioning was not very cold, so for me, it was very hot at night. We had a very pleasant stay and if you like privacy i would highly reccomend!

Felt like Home :)

The room and the bathroom are freshly renovated and had the perfect interior! The breakfast from Donatella was absolutely awesome, we ate way too much everyday :) It nearly felt as home from the first second! Donatella is very helpful for everything you need and has also some very good tips for the time in Polignano a Mare :)

Masseria Torre Catena

Beautiful room, poor breakfast

Reviewed By Kate J

Lovely farmhouse located 10 min outside of Pogliano. We had a Junior Suite in the original house which is beautifully decorated and very comfortable. It was the nicest room we've stayed in during our two week trip. However for this price you expect more than just beautiful accommodation. A private party was being held and (very) loud dance music underneath our room was blaring until 2am. Little regard shown to guests. Unfortunately the breakfast is not good. No fruit, no croissants, no fresh bread, no orange juice. Cakes and warm (no refridgerator) yogurts. A little more effort on these details and this place could be a real gem

I had an excellent breakfast, probably the best in over two weeks travelling around Italy. The town was average though imho. The rooms were clean and the under floor heating was especially welcomed. I recommend charming Trulli
