Masseria del Gigante An elegant country house, an intimate home in the peaceful Mediterranean maquis. 250 sqm villa among
(2)

In Italian, “masseria” is an ancient building, typical of southern Italy. Originally, it was born as a farm inhabited by the landowners, and included lodgings for the peasants working the land, stables, and warehouses for forage and crops. Nowadays, Masseria del Gigante is an elegant villa in Italy, located in Carpignano Salentino, a small village 20 minutes from Lecce and less than 15 from the ma

gic sea of Puglia. The charming holiday house is one of the structures of the bigger, historical and monumental Masseria Torre Ruggeri. Built in the XVII, it’s now the private residence of the owners of the property, Raoul and Stephanie Fenestraz, who decided to start their ultimate family life project in Italy. Their dream was to create a place which unites a strong agricultural identity with refined hospitality. That’s why the tables of Masseria del Gigante will always be laid with olive oil, wine, fruits and vegetables produced by the masseria itself. As their family motto says, the best thing one man can do for another is to share his dream, and the purpose of Masseria del Gigante is precisely to make their guests live their dream, but living the villa in an exclusive way. Masseria del Gigante is nestled in the middle of verdant nature with ancient gardens and secular olive tree groves. It’s a place designed for those seeking a peaceful and quiet atmosphere. The original farm house has been renovated by the family Fenestraz while maintaining the spirit of the place, thanks to the collaboration with craftsmen of the site and the use of local materials, like Salentine Fabrics and Leccese Stones. The villa is now furnished and detailed with an elegant and simple touch and it’s composed by 4 buildings:


- The main structure, with a cozy and refined atmosphere, has two bedrooms with a private bathroom, a large kitchen well equipped, a bright living room and outside a beautiful pergola with an enchanting swimming pool overlooking the mediterranean maquis.
- An independent suite in an original Trullo.
- An original Trullo with a waterfall shower.
- A dependence with two bedrooms with a private bathroom. Between its ancient historical centers in the hinterland, which offers beauty and authentic flavors, its popular festivals and nature with a wild character, Salento is a surprising place. Facing the Ionian Sea to the west and the Adriatic Sea to the east, this land is a blur of sandy, stony and rocky beaches bathed by crystal clear water. At 30 minutes from Masseria del Gigante, immersed in a verdant landscape graced by olive trees of the surrounding countryside, there is the Acaya Golf Club, one of the most beautiful golf courses in Italy. Not far from there, there is also the WWF Cesine Reserve, the last surviving stretch of the vast coastal marshes that once characterized the coastline from Brindisi to Otranto. Less than 30 minutes from Masseria del Gigante we find Lecce, a little masterpiece
built in the local soft creamy limestone with dazzling architectural surprises around every corner and the little town of Otranto, considered since ancient times a natural bridge between the Mediterranean and the East. Less than an hour away it’s possible to visit Brindisi, which besides being enchanting, it hosts a very convenient international airport. At the same distance is located Gallipoli, with its coast to the north and south famous for its long sandy beaches and gorgeous turquoise sea
