The Location This historic Masseria is for sale in Ceglie Messapica, in the province of Brindisi, Puglia. Ceglie Messapica is one of the most ancient villages in Puglia. Located in the centre of the Itria Valley, the town is 6 km from the Masseria and 20 km from Brindisi airport. The Itria Valley is an area in the heart of Apulia, straddling the provinces of Taranto, Brindisi and Bari, characterised by a highly scenic rural area with expanses of olive groves, vineyards and Mediterranean scrub forests. The Valle D'Itria is identified, in particular, by the large presence of trulli and masserie, typical constructions that testify to the past and present of a fervent productive environment, and a splendid rural heritage in architectural terms. Moreover, its villages reflect the area's deepest and most authentic history: from the trulli of Alberobello to the ‘white city’ of Ostuni; from the crystal-clear sea of Monopoli and Polignano to the karst caves of Castellana and the centuries-old history of Ceglie Messapica, Locorotondo and Cisternino.
