Description

In Avetrana (Taranto) about 8 km from the sea of Torre Colimena and about 10 km from the splendid sand dunes of Punta Prosciutto in the municipality of Porto Cesareo (Lecce), there is the Masseria Bosco with ecological swimming pool, currently used as a Resort 4 Star Superior. The toponym appears already in a notarial deed of 16 September 1583 (Act Donato Pedarra). Inside the courtyard it is immediately striking for its majesty and grandeur, one of the few examples of "dry" masonry built at a similar height (over three meters) that once enclosed the "garden", where the livestock generally stationed. The existence of a typically Salento trullo, different from the better known ones in the Itria valley - Alberobello, was generally intended for temporary shelter but in some cases for occasional housing. Resort Masseria Bosco consists of 12 rooms on 2 floors, divided as follows: - 6 standard double rooms, - 2 De Luxe rooms with the possibility of 3rd / 4th bed - 2 Junior suites up to 3/4 beds - 1 De Luxe luxe on the first floor with sweeping views over the olive grove -1 Bosco Suite on the first floor with private terrace, sun beds. All rooms are equipped with the best comforts including wi-fi internet, pay TV, satellite TV, minibar, hairdryer, direct dial telephone, safe. All rooms have vaulted ceilings and exposed stone, tiled floors that reflect the warm colors of the earth; the bathrooms all have showers with bright colored ceramic tiles. The furniture is a mixture of local handicrafts, classic wrought iron, "poor art" in wood and antiques, which gives the rooms a true and classy elegance. In the area once used for storage, shelter of animals and the stable with fireplace there are two rooms used for catering / breakfast according to the different needs of customers. The first room was once the animal barn and you can still see three passages that were used by shepherds to count the animals during the milking phase. Today, these passages have been renovated and made usable as kitchens. In the second room, the stable with fireplace, you can see a detail: it is an opening in the floor about 4 meters deep. At one time, in the period of banditry, this cavity was the shelter of basic necessities that were hidden by the workers. Masseria Bosco was in ancient times surrounded by a wood of holm oaks where brigands took refuge. The shepherds who lived in the farm cultivated the surrounding land and in anticipation of the raids of the brigands created this opening both as a hiding place and as an escape route. In the restaurant you can still see an ancient oven that initially served to heat the rooms, then it was used as a kitchen oven and today, given its moderate size, a private room has been created.
