Guests arrive at a sprawling rural estate in Conversano's countryside, where 14th-century stone structures and manicured gardens create an immediate sense of stepping into another era. The property operates as both a working masseria and hotel, meaning your wedding party will stay where the celebration happens—in restored farmhouse rooms that sleep guests between rehearsal dinner and morning-after brunch. From the moment the first car rolls through the entrance at km 14 of SS 172, attendees experience the transition from modern Puglia to a preserved Baroque-era compound.
