Masseria Potenti is such an amazing place. One of the places you enter where you get a real wow effect, difficult to capture in pictures. There are plenty of masserias in the region, many are atmospheric but none is so utterly cool. Apart from the huge courtyard, where you enter this magnificient farmhouse, there are a lot of spaces to hide/indulge: white washed corners, green garden spots, the swimming pool area, the lovely restaurant area, the quirky rooms (some with pool). The masseria produces its own wine, olive oil, vegetables and more. Needless to say It's also a foodie place. If you're in the region don't hesitate to stay in this dreamy oasis.
