Property information

The farmhouse retains the simplicity of the houses of the Apulian countryside, yet with a touch of refinement due to the care of the details. The apartments at the disposal of the guests are, in fact, finely restored and furnished with period furniture. They are fully self-contained, as well as are equipped with hot / cold air conditioning, all have a bathroom with a shower cubicle with both bed and bath linen and kitchenette, fridge, crockery, dishes, cutlery and glasses. With a bar and a pool with a view Introduced by an impressive avenue of majestic palms, you will find the restaurant. In those that were formerly the dormitory of the laborers who for a few months moved to the company for the Season of the Olive, today are being restored and finely restored, with tufa to face view, two suggestive rooms with two majestic twin chimneys as well as a room used by our guests for succulent breakfasts and for typical tastings. The simple but well-groomed style, which is then our philosophy, is also found in the cuisine offered, which is reflected in the traditional appulo-lucana of this land border between Puglia and Basilicata

Neighbourhood information

The Valle Rita farmhouse is part of an ancient feudal palace of Princess Maria Cristina of Austria (16th century). Today there is a farmhouse in an organic farm located at the strategic intersection between Apulia, Calabria and Basilicata. The structure is located at the strategic intersection of the main roads that connect the three regions: Apulia, Calabria and Basilicata, so that from Valle Rita you can visit all places of greatest historical and artistic interest: Matera, Taranto, Alberobello, Ostuni, Otranto , Lecce, Metaponto, the streets of Frederick II of Swabia, and more about the archeology of Magna Grecia. Just a few miles from the farm you can play golf in an 18-hole golf course and take natural walks on foot, by bicycle or on horseback in the Ionian coast beaches.
