Masseria d'Estia was even better than it appeared in the pictures. We were amazed by the lovely atmosphere, interior, details, all the equipment available for us travelling with kids (toys etc), and lovely staff and great service. We would love to stay there again as it was so great and really fulfilled all our needs.
