Masseria Cervarolo - Ostuni

We thoroughly enjoyed our 5 nights at Masseria Cervarolo. The accommodation is rustic and beautiful. A well maintained converted farmhouse featuring trulli, in a beautiful setting in the Puglian countryside. The staff were exceptional - very friendly, relaxed and professional. Lucia provided a warm welcome and helped with all our transfers. Paolo at the pool bar was exceedingly friendly and very efficient with drinks, cocktails, snacks, lunch and banter. The pool area is beautiful and unusually large. A perfect place to relax. We would recommend highly and would definitely stay again. Other comments: * I lost my licence and was unable to hire a car. Lucia assisted with transportation. While this wasn't the cheapest, we were still able to explore a couple of towns and get into Ostuni regularly. * The dinner (fixed tasting menu) was very good and good value * Breakfast was lovely * The pool bar food was surprisingly good and drinks/food were very well priced * Ostuni was fabulous. A real surprise. It had a great vibe and was bigger than expected. We had amazing dinners (thanks Lucia) and some excellent aperitivo drinks in some very cool places.

Everything about the Masseria is wonderful. The setting is stunning and peaceful, enhanced by beautiful and interesting items that decorate the masseria. A perfect base to explore the region. The staff are exceptional, very friendly and helpful full of advice on local places to visit. My husband loved The chefs tasting menu, I have allergies which were accommodated and my food was also delicious. The pool is a real highlight, surrounded by the pretty gardens with a great little bar serving light lunches. The attention to detail is outstanding, pots of plants, art work and ceramics all so beautifully placed throughout the property. Our room on the first floor had amazing views we a very large terrace. I have no hesitation in recommending this wonderful Masseria we were sad to leave!

We wanted to experience staying at a Masseria during our 14 night trip around Puglia and chose Masseria Cervarolo based on the great reviews. The Masseria and the grounds are beautiful and the staff were lovely and very helpful. The pool is huge with plenty of loungers but unfortunately we didn't haven't the weather to be able to use it. We had dinner at the Masseria on our first evening which was a tasting menu along with the wine pairing and the food and wine were excellent. We would of eaten at the Masseria again during our stay but we wanted to try some other restaurants in nearby towns. Given how amazing dinner was we were expecting a great breakfast but we were a little disappointed, it wasn't anywhere near as good as other breakfasts we had during our trip, there was the usual meats and cheeses and cakes and cereals but there wasn't a great selection of fresh fruits and given they have such a large kitchen we were surprised and disappointed that you couldn't order any eggs. I find meat and cheese too heavy for breakfast and don't really eat cake for breakfast so I always ended up with just a bowl of cereal. The Masseria is about a 15 min drive from Ostuni so you really do need a hire car in my opinion. We were going to get a taxi to Ostuni one evening but ended up driving as the taxis were expensive, EUR50 round trip. We enjoyed our stay and would love to stay here again, it is a great location for visiting nearby towns such as Ostuni, Cisternino, Martina Franca, Alberobello etc.

The only Masseria I recommend to people in Puglia. A beautifully restored Hotel with an Authentic style surrounded by lush grounds and pool in the heart of Puglia. All the staff are incredibly friendly and always attentive making the overall experience always a relaxing stay while the restaurant serves authentic Apulian cuisine thats very delicious. The attention to every detail of Masseria Cervarolo always shows its run by a loving family who care so much for each and every guest. Cant wait to come back!

We had a lovely stay at Masseria Cervalo. Service at reception and in the restaurant was outstanding. We stayed in the quad room and found it spacious and unique. Great massages as well. We look forward to returning when it’s warmer so we can enjoy the pool facilities.

Beautiful Masseria, rooms and grounds were well maintained. Unfortunately the weather wasn't great so we didn't get to utilise the pool. The food was wonderful, we really enjoyed our meal at the restaurant. The Manager at the restaurant was particularly warm and a wonderful host.
