This is a wonderful place and a large part of what makes it so wonderful is the owner, Matteo. He goes above and beyond to help his guests and make their stay as perfect as possible. We stayed in the new annex, it's just beautiful with mellow Puglian stone and gorgeous tiles. Both the bedroom and bathroom were so spacious. It is immersed in the countryside so no noise at night. And oh the breakfast! Probably the best we have ever had in Italy..mostly homemade...yoghurt, marmalade, bread and Matteo's mother's cakes which were out of this world, thank you Mamma! We loved our 2 night stay here and Matteo organised an itinerary for us so we could really enjoy the wonderful amenities this part of Salento has to offer. Grazie mille Matteo!

Nothing, it's perfect

I’d like to praise Matteo & Giulia for their hospitality. This place is incredible and shows how much love and effort they put into building it. Matteo gave us useful information and travel tips. Tenuta Calitre is peaceful, clean and close to beautiful beaches. I enjoyed home made cakes for breakfast, quality coffee and traditional dinner with wine. Pool offers nice refreshment during hot days. Rooms are nice, comfortable and always clean. And of course - friendly animals 🙂

Nothing, absolutely nothing. We stayed 2 nights, but I would recommed more.

I can't recommend this place enough—it's beyond a perfect 10/10! Martal, the host, was incredibly accommodating, warm, and full of joy. One evening, when the rain kept us from going out for dinner, he graciously cooked us a delicious meal that we thoroughly enjoyed. Our entire stay was fantastic. The accommodations were spotless and comfortable, and the surrounding scenery was absolutely beautiful. Breakfast was a true highlight, featuring delicious homemade options. We also loved taking a stroll around the farm, where we met Lucy, the sweet and friendly donkey. She’s always eager to mingle and made our visit even more memorable.

We absolutely loved our stay here! The accommodation was very clean and beautifully designed. It was less than a 15-minute drive to several beaches in the area (or 5 mins to Torre Dell’Orso), and the Grotta del Poesia and Torre Sant’Andrea were less than 10 minutes away. The owner, Matteo, was fantastic—his laugh is contagious, he’s very responsive, and always super willing to help out! The breakfast was also delicious, featuring several homemade goods and amazing coffee, we felt very spoilt! We also enjoyed the animals on the property, especially the donkey, dog, and cats.

Only wished we stayed here longer!

Staying here was our best choice and an amazing experience! The host was incredibly welcoming with a fantastic vibe. During breakfast, the atmosphere was delightful with great music, excellent coffee, delicious eggs, the homemade bread and sweets! The rooms were impeccably clean and well-maintained daily, and the surroundings were green oasis with clean pool. Very peaceful, relaxing quiet place. Matteo provided explanations and recommendations for dining options, attractions to visit, and beaches to explore. His restaurant recommendations were spot on, offering unreal dining experiences. But above all, Matteo and his well maintained place were simply outstanding.

Loved everything....beautiful room, very private and quiet, super big super comfy bed, lovely bathroom, having a sofa was great. Pool was pristine clean, not cold...and yay, still open early October. Easy to find property and plenty of parking right by room. Amazing choice for breakfast, lovely fresh fruits and delicious cakes made by Matteo's mother. Matteo is a brilliant host and made our stay extra special. Great local tips and suggestions, thanks for everything Matteo!

Only that I'll have to walk a 100km to wear off mummas delicious cakes that I ate too much of!!

Best place we stayed in our trip to Puglia. We had the best time at Tenuta Calitre. Matteo is a wonderful, attentive and friendly host who made us feel at home since the arrival. He gave us lots of recommendations and also came with us to a local shop/olive oil factory to help us choose some local products to take home. Breakfast was great with some local specialties, Matteo kept us company which was great too. The location is great to go to the best beaches in Salento, also close to Otranto and Lecce for day trips. We look forward to coming back to this little piece of paradise in Puglia ❤️

A great property decorated with style. It has a great yard with a beautiful pool in the midle. There are some animals that my daughter loved a lot. The breakfast was great and with abondand choises. The morning cakes are very delicious. Everything was great but the cherry on top is Matteo's hospitality. This property has the best host that i have ever met. He gave us directions where to go and enjoy the area as a true local. His advices and hospitality made our stay unforgetable.

It was all perfect.

Perfect, relaxing stay with the most welcoming host Matteo we know. Matteo makes sure you have the best time with information about the region, food and a very happy spirit. The area with the garden and pool is perfect and everything is clean. Breakfast is super with a wide variety of local and self made products. Would definitely recommend to stay here and we will surely come back if we visit the region again. Matteo grazie mille!

Incredibly beautiful place with a great host. It is one of the best accommodations we have visited on our many trips to Italy. It is the perfect place to stay for a longer period of time and explore the region by car. But the beautiful place invites you also to spend a relaxing day by the pool. The breakfast, which consisted of a variety of regional products, was also super delicious.
