Italy: TOP 11 Masseria Hotels in Puglia

Hotels  |  Puglia, Italy

The Masseria is, in my opinion, the best hotels in Puglia, which is also a symbol of the region. A real holiday for aristocrats. But what is a Masseria? Masseria are former noblemen’s estates and farmhouses. Masseria resemble a small fortified autonomous town, where life flows at its own pace around agriculture. More often than not, the main tenants of the masseria were peasants, and sometimes the massaro (the landowner himself). The noble estates, were surrounded by fortress walls, inside which there was real luxury: sculptures, luxury goods, and sometimes even chapels. The Masseria also included houses for workers, stables and storages.
