About the villa

Enclosed by traditional dry-stone walls and sun-bleached courtyards, Masseria della Musa offers an idyllic retreat grounded in rich regional heritage. Broad lawns frame a 15-metre private swimming pool, where built-in steps ensure easy access and a shaded pergola provides a welcome respite from the midday sun.

Enclosed by traditional dry-stone walls and sun-bleached courtyards, Masseria della Musa offers an idyllic retreat grounded in rich regional heritage. Broad lawns frame a 15-metre private swimming pool, where built-in steps ensure easy access and a shaded pergola provides a welcome respite from the midday sun. The outdoor living area features a stone-built cooking station equipped with a pizza oven, barbecue, sink, and a dedicated bar space for relaxed evening drinks.

Inside, soaring limestone arches, vaulted ceilings, and cool flagstone floors retain the historic character of the original structure. The central living space blends traditional craftsmanship with clean-lined comfort, offering an open-plan lounge, dining hall, and a fully appointed country kitchen stocked with a drinks fridge. Thoughtfully arranged across two distinct wings to guarantee privacy for larger groups, all six air-conditioned bedrooms feature private en suite shower or bathrooms. Three of these light-filled suites incorporate separate dressing or sitting areas.

Active days are well catered for at the property with a boules court, table tennis, table football, and dedicated yoga mats. When stepping out, local trattorias, a small supermarket, and padel courts in Borgagne are a short 3.5km drive away. The dramatic rocky inlets of Sant'Andrea and the sandy bay of Torre dell’Orso are reached within ten minutes by car, with historic Otranto positioned just 15km to the south.
