Farmhouse

Puglia is a land rich in history and home to many beauties, including its marvelous masserie (farmhouses). In the trulli region alone, there are more than one hundred, both fortified and unfortified, built starting in the late 17th century. Lamapecora, built in the late 19th century, is a masseria surrounded by more than seven hundred centuries-old olive trees, where life is still marked, just as it once was, by the rhythms and activities linked to nature.

Structurally, it is composed of two architectural nuclei: the first, older one, originally used as a storehouse and farmer's lodging; the second, more majestic, structured on multiple levels, is the residential home of the owner's family. In addition to the tuff and stone structures, Lamapecora is full of spaces designed to house small and large animals: stables for cows, a jazzo for sheep, a farmyard for chickens, and equipped spaces for goats, pigs, and turkeys.
Enriching the landscape is a garden of citrus trees and flowering plants everywhere.

In the 1970s, the Tauro family purchased the farmhouse and surrounding plots of land to turn them into a farm producing their own dairy products and extra virgin olive oil. Over fifty years of experience, respect for traditions and the slow rhythms of nature, and a passion for meticulous and honest work make Lamapecora a unique place, a postcard of Puglia.
In recent times, the doors of the Lamapecora farmhouse and its artisanal dairy have opened to welcome those who want to fall in love with nature.
