Masseria Bernardini is situated on the Ionic coast, two km from Nardò a "city of art, rich of wonderful baroque architectures in province of Lecce," fifteen km from Gallipoli and few minutes' drive from Porto Selvaggio Natural Park beach.\nMasseria Bernardini is found in the red earth of Salento country between olives, prickly pears and cornfield.\nThe building goes back to the XIV century, it has swimming pool and it is situated ten minute drive from the seaside.\nThe building belongs to the "Agnano" ancient compound and was bought by the Santa Chiara convent of Nardò on 31st December 1453; although local historical data, backdates the existence of this big farmhouse to the XIV century.\nThe Masseria remained dormant for more than one decade and today, after a meticulous restoration, carried out with absolute respect for shapes, spaces and original elements, it's become a small and smart Art-Resort for anyone who appreciates historical charms with Italian design style, new contemporary art, and, above all, space, light and silence.\nA double wall protects the Masseria. The first wall, higher and more protective, pre-dates the renovation and is built with typical ancient tuff ashlars, which still contains large and charming fossil shell.\nInside this first wall is situated the core of the Masseria, a building with two floors that incorporates owners' house and other three apartments; three more suites are also located inside the wall but separate from the central building.\nThey are all surrounded by an internal garden, recreated with olive and citrus trees that is well integrated between the typical red land and the local white stones, where the swimming pool is found too. At the first floor there is also a wonderful terrace with a boundless view over the countryside.\nThe second wall has been completely rebuilt by hand with dry stones and surrounds a wide green area where a newly planted young olive grove is situated.\nThere is also an ancient farmyard, which in the past was dedicated to wheat accumulation.\nAll the six Masseria Bernardini apartments and suites share a quiet, informal, light atmosphere and has a own living/dining room and equipped kitchen.\nThey are all really different in shape and structure, but have in common a wide space as well as a special character that makes them unique.\nThe living room areas have different shape and size in each suite; all communicate with the outside area and are usually subdivided into dining and relaxing area.\nMasseria Bernardini offers its guest a Home & More concept of hospitality: home comforts together with the hotel services and cuddles.\nIn the morning a rich salentino breakfast is served directly in each bedroom or in designated outside area.
