Masseria Donna Menga - A 15th century farmhouse amid silence, light and stone in the heart of Salento

Today, the courtyard, once a bustling center of activity, boasts a tranquil oasis where fragrant olive trees and prickly pear cacti thrive under the Apulian sun. At its centre, a shimmering 20-metre pool invites guests to indulge in leisurely afternoons, surrounded by the timeless beauty of their surroundings. Inside, the interiors have been transformed into elegant retreats, seamlessly blending historic charm with contemporary sophistication. Vaulted ceilings, some of them re-built using ancient techniques, grace every room, lending an air of grandeur and spaciousness. Pietra Leccese stone floors, cool to the touch, provide a sense of grounding and authenticity.

RADICI RESTAURANT offers menus with simple dishes that aim to rediscover the authenticity of the local traditions and go beyond the concept of “local” cuisine: it enhances the genuineness of simple dishes that highlight the raw materials of the territory itself. This has been made possible thanks to the careful selection of local family-run producers. For lunch, enjoy the Mediterranean fare, served ‘al fresco’ under the shade of the RADICI pergola together with a selection of cocktails customised by the barman.

MASSERIA DONNA MENGA offers 21 guest rooms, including suites and the Master Two-bedroom Tower Suite. Each room tells a story of the Masseria's past, with original features lovingly restored to their former glory. From the ancient vaulted ceilings to the rustic simplicity of hand-hewn stone, every detail speaks to a deep connection to the land and its heritage.

Located in the Masseria’s courtyard, a refreshing 20-metre pool is surrounded by a shade pergola with sun beds, while the intimate Wellness Corner offers guests personalised treatment programs aimed at relaxation and psycho-physical reinvigoration, combined with the use of the Turkish Bath. A well-equipped outdoor Technogym completes the property's exquisite offer.
