Masseria Cervarolo

Masseria Cervarolo is a farm with trulli, raised in the sixteenth century, on a hill of 250 meters. overlooking a vast and fertile plain 6 km from Ostuni.

Like many Apulian farms, the buildings were born and changed over the centuries according to the cultivation and production practices. The toponym 'Cervarolo' originates from the presence of deer on the last offshoots of the Murgia when they were covered by dense wooded areas.

Attached to the farm, dedicated to the Virgin of Sorrows (1798), there is a small church with a splendid polychromatic Baroque altar and numerous frescoes. The church was a very important place of worship and this is testified by the discovery of numerous ex voto. Legends are linked to Masseria Cervarolo which have made it a place of pilgrimage for those who are in search of serenity. It is also said that, in the area of ​​the farm, spring arrives a few weeks early and that the farmers of the surroundings regulate agricultural activities by virtue of this "phenomenon".

The restoration work, which lasted more than five years, was carried out in absolute respect of the original architecture using materials recovered from the farm itself: chianche, chiancarelle, limestone blocks etc. We have created a country residence of discreet elegance where our family will be happy to host you.
