The owners, Maria and Nino are fantastic. As you can imagine, with a group of 13, there were several dietary needs, all of which they accommodated. The roasted veggies were to die for! Everything came from their garden and/or farm. A wonderful experience. Don't miss it!

They cooked typical Puglia land food and judged by the smell that I can say that eating would be divine! the plant, the animal farm, the cheese production and the rooms are kept immaculate. the owner gaetano is a lovely person, very friendly and hospitable and all the people I met this day in the masseria la calcara, greeted us with a big smile. valentina interior architect
