Our newly renovated cottage is spacious, yet simple and has everything you need to spend quality time surrounded by peace and nature. Taste fresh, local produce, award-winning olive oil and discover the many activities in and around our family's organic farm.

The space
This bright cottage is situated in the middle of our 160 hectare family owned olive farm. It was originally built as a schoolhouse for the children whose parents worked in the fields. It is part of Masseria Flaminio, a fortified farmhouse dating back to the 12th century, which has been in our family for four generations and is still used today to produce award-winning extra virgin olive oil, three varieties of grapes and various fruits and vegetables.

At Casa Cantasole, you will be able to enjoy a whole cottage to yourself. Below is a description of the different rooms and surroundings.

MAIN ROOM- the main room is about 45m2, with a sleeping area and living area
- the sleeping area has a queen-size bed with a comfortable high-end memory foam mattress so you can wake up refreshed from a great night's sleep.
- the living area has two large handmade armchairs and an olive-wood coffee table to sit back and catch up on some reading or enjoy a chilled glass of local wine. There is also a large dining room table overlooking the olive fields which you may chose to use for breakfast, dinner or as a creative space throughout the day.
- enjoy your own intimate cinema cession using the complimentary compact video projector (HDMI connectivity) and fancy popcorn machine.

KITCHEN- the kitchen is fully equipped to test out your Mediterranean cooking skills: induction stove, large fridge with freezer, tea kettle and Italian style coffee maker.
- we provide tea/coffee, still water and homemade products such as marmalade, eggs, extra virgin olive oil, sauces and some fresh produce to help you max out your cooking potential.

PLANTS & WILDLIFE- nature therapy
- our 160 hectare farm is very diverse. There are about 12 different varieties of olive trees, ranging from our youngest 6 months old trees to our oldest trees that are about 300 years old
- many other varieties of trees can be found on the property, including cherry, apricot, pear, fig, orange, lemon, mandarin and pistachio trees and a beautiful pine tree forest ("pineta") just next to our cottage
- many other plant varieties, cactus and succulent plants grow around the property
- our entire property is classified as a WILDLIFE OASIS, which means that you may catch a glimpse of wild hares, owls or migratory birds
