Features
Snuggled by the long-lived olive, almond and carob trees, where you can live a memorable experience, this venue lists many indoor and outdoor options for your big day.
The pool sitting right in the middle of reeds and olive groves can be the setting of a relaxing welcome cocktail. The area, sporting a romantic pergola with bougainvillea, can be decorated with torches and candles for an extra special effect at night. The ancient farmyard terroir enclosed by the fortified walls and the large churchyard are great ideas for an outdoor reception, or alternatively your guests can be accommodated in the oil mill varved in natural rock, in case of rain.
The old garden with colonnades and the sturdy olive trees bring romance to important moments of the day like the cutting of the cake.
Perfect to enjoy a weekend long event with food festival-type ideas. Pizza corners, local cheeses and fried specialties as well as home-made pasta are prepared in front of your guests, to enjoy the real warm and friendly character of Puglia.
