Well-situated in the heart of picturesque Puglia, amidst ancient olive groves and pleasant plains, the 5-bedroom Masseria Zia Cocca is a trulli treasure accommodating up to 10 guests. Initially inhabited by nuns as a convent from 1450, this sacred place now is a serene retreat of vaulted stone ceilings, traditional architecture, and modern luxury.
Upon entering the villa, guests are greeted by a concierge in the lovingly transformed reception area. As a sacred space, the chapel is a great place to go to meditate, pray, or put yourself at ease.
The next stop is the charming open-plan kitchen and dining room, which, like the villa, embraces the original masonry of the material. The exposed brickwork, domed ceiling, stone fireplace, and large, rustic dining table ensure a warm and airy ambience in this home hub.
The kitchen is fully equipped with a range of modern appliances, from a farmhouse sink to a professional-grade juicer and ample counter space. Whether you’re tossing together a Mediterranean Salad or preparing a holiday feast for family and friends, culinary enthusiasts will find everything they need and more.
Masseria Zia Cocca’s five bedrooms are a haven of calm and comfort, boasting king-sized beds, ensuite bathrooms with walk-in showers, and even their own personal dining areas so that a casual breakfast or romantic dinner for two is a pleasantly private affair.
The charm of Masseria Zia Cocca extends out of doors, where guests can take what they need from the botanic garden and dine al fresco in the cosy courtyard. Beyond the chapel and surrounded by olive trees is the stunning swimming pool and bar, a true oasis where time stands still.
With its holy heritage and charming ambience, Masseria Zia Cocca is a homely hybrid of tradition and modernity. This unique blend invites guests into an authentic Puglian experience that will prove as enjoyable as it will be unforgettable.
