The agriturismo
This charming manor farm, former priest’s dwelling which was built along with a tiny and still consecrated church, is set on a gentle hill facing the sea, Km 1 from Conversano and Km 6 from the Adriatic coastline.
The facility is now a farm plunged among olive and cherry trees and offers hospitality in tastefully decorated rooms featuring original furniture.

The accommodation
The present complex is the result of several building stages: the ground floor dates back to the early’700s and was a main feature of the farm.
The first floor was added in 1850 for the owners, priests who wished to move to the countryside, to “…recover that peace of soul compromised by the bleakness of town”, as the inscription above the front door reads.
The settlement was completed with a tiny church, still now consecrated and dedicated to Our Lady of Graces, as well as a small aedicule which stands at the end of a pergola made with columns dating back to those days.
The stables building is the latest part of the complex, it was erected in the early ‘900; this wing now includes the restaurant and, on the first floor, the bedrooms , all fitted with en-suite bathroom, TV, mini-bar and period furniture; some rooms enjoy sea view.
Next to this building there are other four rooms situated on ground floor, all with independent access, and a small flat (independent, on the first floor) made up of two bedrooms, two bathrooms, one of which fitted with bathtub, small living room (kitchenette) and a pleasant terrace. All accommodations have a view on the swimming pool and garden.
