My friends and I stayed at the Masseria for 3 nights as we were guests at a wedding at Castello Monaci. Vittoria arranged a transfer for us from Brindisi airport which was great and very well priced - we used the same taxis for trips to Lecce and back to the aiport.

The villa is exceptional, with plenty of space for 10 adults. The terrace has beautiful views of the surrounding vineyards and the outside space downstairs is wonderfully sheltered - we managed to spend an entire day by the pool in April as the sun came out! All of the bedrooms come with ensuites and the beds are extremely comfortable. Marco was our contact and was incredibly helpful offering tours of the vineyard and anything else we needed.

The welcome pack left by Vittoria was very generous - all necessities were included (washing up liquid, bin bags etc) as well as some extra cooking ingredients; coffee, tea, milk (even soy!), salt, pepper, oil, pasta, bottled water... Very helpful as the nearest shop is a 10min drive away.

I would recommend this villa for anyone wanting a rural group holiday or visiting Castello Monaci for a wedding. Would definitely suggest hiring a car for stocking up on food and trips to the surrounding areas.
