Masseria Tolla

The peace and quiet of this simple, semi-rural, messeria b&b was wonderful. We were able to stand down from an arduous day of travelling and have a quiet beer out on the terrace in the cool of late afternoon and watch the sun sink in a blazing ball of orange over the fields and olive groves that are typical of Puglia. Perfect! We were smitten with the spirit of generosity shown by our hosts and leo. Charming and obliging folk like no other. only wish we might have been there for olive harvest next week. im sure we would have laughed and cooked and sang our way to the presses. A wonderful breakfast left us feeling repleat after a comfortable night's sleep - already to seize the day! ah la dolce vita!

there is nothing we didnt like except leaving.

We loved the Masseria Tolla B&B and loved Giuseppe & Manuela so much! They were the perfect hosts and they were both so nice. The property was gorgeous! Manuela prepared cappuccinos for us every morning. The room we stayed in was perfect. The shower was great and our bed was very comfortable! The road leading to the house is very easy to find. It was great having a place to park with a gate too for security! Ostuni is a perfect town and we loved heading there for dinner while staying here. It's a 5 minute drive to the old town of Ostuni from here. Don't forget to check out the haunted mansion with the two giant trees as you exit their main street! We also loved Leo, Giuseppe's dog! Bello bello bello! Grazie mille!

Modern, well presented rooms in a farmhouse setting.

Access is via a very poorly maintained road. The turn off is on a very bad bend in the road. It is safer to pass the entrance and “double back” to access. Breakfast was very poor by Italian standards.

The location is very unusual, loved that we stayed in the old part of the Masseria. The hosts were very nice and gave us great recommendations for sightseeing/eating places in the area.
