Tenuta Monacelli – Lecce è un magnifico complesso masserizio del XVI secolo nel cuore del Salento, formato da due autentiche masserie, “Masseria Monacelli” e “Masseria Giampaolo”. Immersa in 400 ettari tra uliveti, vigneti e bosco di lecci, la Tenuta vanta una posizione tranquilla ed è situata a 0.6 mi circa dalla Abbazia di Santa Maria di Cerrate e a 9.9 mi dalla citta barocca di Lecce. La spiaggia convenzionata più vicina è situata nel parco naturale delle Cesine. Suddivise tra le due masserie, le camere, ampie e finemente arredate, sono tutte dotate di aria condizionata, mini-bar e Smart Tv con canali internazionali. Il suo esclusivo ristorante “Rifugio del Re” con la sua terrazza estiva, offre piatti tradizionali pugliesi, preparati con ingredienti della propria azienda agricola e un barbecue a vista con selezione di carni pregiate. Fiore all’occhiello, al centro del complesso masserizio, l’immensa piscina di 108 ft circondata da muretti a secco e magnifico giardino con area bar, lunch e una funzionale palestra.

Property info

More than 50,000 centuries old olive trees with their superb architectures shaped by centuries that challenge the time, charmingly embrace the Tenuta, architectural jewel of Salento, integrated in perfect harmony between history and modernity. Masseria Monacelli, a fortified farm of the sixteenth century and Masseria Giampaolo, an exclusive hamlet of the '400, are set with their watch towers in the heart of Salento. Located near the Romanesque-Byzantine Abbey of S. Maria a Cerrate, today among the assets of the Italian Environment Fund, they witness traces of history. Both hold a precious ipogeous crusher, the storage rooms of the olives and the shelter of the crusher. A place that emphasizes the importance and wealth of the entire complex over the centuries. The Tenuta offers the opportunity to taste extra virgin olive oil produced locally, on request.

Neighborhood info

The Abbey of Santa Maria di Cerrate is one of the most significant example of Romanesque architecture in Puglia.The abbey dates from the 12th century. Today it shows typical decorations from Salento area, an arcade wing on the left hand side of the church and a well from the 16th century. Next to the Abbey, the Museum of Popular Traditions. Here, among the other finds, it is possible to admire panels with frescos from the aisles.
