Bottom Line
Hotel Masseria Le Pajare is a rustic country retreat in Puglia that is aimed primarily at Italian families on summer holiday. Apart from access to abundant natural resources, the hotel's major draw is a large, lovely outdoor pool and adjacent casual dining room with tables that spill out onto a stone terrace. The beach and other points of interest are several miles away and generally require a car. Another challenge for non-native speakers is the language barrier: This is not a region where English is commonly spoken.

Scene
Catacomb ceilings and stonework are prevalent at this property, the site of ancient mill
The hotel is a compound of buildings located on the site of an ancient mill, so there’s plenty of old brick, wagon wheels, and pieces of vintage machinery used as exterior accent details. The interior public spaces are in an old stone tower with catacomb-like vaulted ceilings. Furnishings throughout are basic and spare, with a nod to more traditional modes of design.
Location
In the Salento region of Puglia, surrounded by greenery; beaches and marinas are several miles away
Masseria Le Pajare is in the settlement of Lido Marini in the Salento region of Puglia, once primarily an agricultural area and now a popular seaside vacation destination in the heel of Italy's boot. The hotel is surrounded by olive trees and vegetable gardens, with mushrooms available for gathering in fall and winter as the climate is still mild. For those with cars, beaches and marinas are a few miles away in Torre Vado and Torre Pali. Shuttle service is available from the hotel to Brindisi Airport or the train station in Lecce.
Rooms
Plain and simple decor in 29 rooms
There are 29 rooms in a variety of configurations with bland decor that borders on monastic. Features include white stucco walls, tiled floors, and matching dark stained wood beds, desks, and wardrobes. Bathrooms are spacious, but not luxurious. The best views are in rooms overlooking the pool area, but these can be noisy during monthly music events in the restaurant.
Features
Delicious home-baked bread in the restaurant; outdoor activities and live performances
The property’s farm produces and cultivates food for its guests while the family-style restaurant and bar features home-baked bread and other local specialties. There are clay tennis courts on the premises as well as an outdoor pool with loungers and table seating. Car and bike rentals are offered as well. For culture-minded folks, the venue regularly offers live performances featuring regional song and dance traditions known as Pizzica.
