About Masseria Serritella
Masseria Serritella is a restored 18th-century fortified farmhouse in the Itria Valley, originally built as a defensive agricultural compound for grain storage and livestock.
The property underwent careful restoration to preserve its limestone walls, barrel-vaulted ceilings, and traditional trulli architecture while introducing modern hospitality infrastructure.
Today it operates as a luxury hotel and wedding venue, maintaining the austere beauty of its Puglian heritage across its 8-hectare grounds.
