Masseria Filippo de Raho - Agri Bio Relais

All outstanding! An oasis of relaxation and well-being in the heart of Salento, a stone's throw from Lecce. Rooms and suites with attention to the smallest detail with excellent services. Fantastic restaurant! Excellent food and very friendly and knowledgeable staff. Fantastic breakfast Masseria absolutely to try

The perfect location to switch off the electricity and immerse yourself in total relaxation. Located a few kilometers from Lecce, it is the ideal base for those who want to visit Salento. As soon as you pass the bar of the estate, it seems to enter a new dimension, trees, olive trees, prickly pears, accompany you to the entrance, where Lucrezia, the perfect receptionist, simple but elegant, welcomes you with a smile and with professionalism. The rooms, strictly without television, spacious and equipped with every comfort, envelop guests with the warmth that only wooden furnishings can give. It's the ideal place if you want to write a book or the lyrics of a song, because nothing distracts your mind. In the morning, after waking up, breakfast awaits you in the citrus grove, with all the farm's products, starting with the focaccia, the pasticciotto, the ricottas, all to wish you the best of "Good morning". And what about a dip in the pool? After a day spent perhaps visiting Lecce, a true pearl of our Italy, what could be better, before dinner, than a dip in the pool to restore your limbs? Finally, dinner, which unfortunately we could not enjoy in the garden due to bad weather, was perfect in every dish

The Relais par excellence where you find peace of mind. Located in a strategic point to reach the main cities of Salento and the most beautiful beaches, as soon as you enter the structure you go back in time. You immerse yourself in nature, among olive trees and the alchemy of the scents of nature, with the deafening silence that reigns supreme, interrupted only by the sweet noise of the branches moving in the wind. To welcome you the professionalism of Filippo who as a very good host makes this holiday unforgettable. Agri Bio is an exclusive location where you immerse yourself in the pool and you are immediately enveloped by the emotion of living in a Relais as if it were for your exclusive use but pampered for the whole holiday. Lucrezia follows you throughout your stay impeccably, a staff that makes you feel at home for cleanliness and order. In the morning when you wake up for breakfast, Caterina awaits you who prepares the desserts every morning, a sweet and decisive woman, a very good pastry chef and cook who makes you taste every goodness with her authenticity, and spoils you from hot pasticciotto freshly baked especially for you, to her delicious cakes, up to freshly sliced salami and express omelettes. And again Caterina takes you by the hand to the pool preparing aperitifs and extraordinary lunches, so that you feel the protagonist of your relaxation. And then dinner under the olive trees in an atmosphere of other times between calm and exclusivity with the traditional dishes of Emanuele, a 5-star chef because he tells you with his immense passion for the territory and the cuisine each dish totally at km 0, from the land of De Raho. I would go back, I would recommend it because it is a relais that makes you fall in love from the first to the last moment, from which you never want to leave.

The buen retreat par excellence: simply perfect. The relais is located in the countryside just outside Lecce in a strategic position for exploring Salento destinations. The atmosphere of the structure takes you back to a dimension suspended in space and time: the trees, the church, the courtyard, the rooms and the furnishings and the swimming pool give the guest an immediate feeling of harmony and peace. Filippo is a perfect host: attentive, discreet, precise and available for every need of his guests. The simplicity of the location is also combined with the exclusivity of the services. Lucrezia welcomes guests impeccably, the staff perfect for cleanliness and order. The breakfast made unique and unforgettable by Caterina, an excellent pastry chef and cook, who bakes wonderful cakes and focaccias in real time with products from the garden and fruit from the agribio. Lunch and an extraordinary aperitif by the pool prepared by the expert hands of Caterina who continues after breakfast to spoil and pamper her guests. Finally dinner in the garden between Peace and exclusivity with dishes from the cuisine of Emanuele, a fantastic 5-star chef, who with his immense passion and expertise has been able to perfectly combine culinary tradition with innovation but with absolute respect for the excellent material first totally at km 0, from the land of De Raho. Too bad I have to leave. Absolutely must return .

Very beautiful and typical location, the only positive note together with the apparent/initial friendliness and professionalism of the staff. We choose the 6-course tasting menu: only 5 arrive, a meager appetizer of two vegetable-based samples, two modest first courses (the second decidedly bland) and a bowl of meat each. Sweet good. Moral of the story: 58 euros each with two bottles of rosé wine in 8. Without anyone asking us how it went or if we would like a bitter coffee or similar, we left in silence and certainly in general embarrassment. I don't know what happened that night, because in a place like this I can't believe the food is so bad. Not positive experience.

Siamo stati in Masseria per festeggiare l’addio al celibato/nubilato di una coppia di amici. Sin dal primo contatto che ho avuto con la struttura, il personale si è mostrato molto disponibile nell’organizzazione dell’evento e ha accolto tutte le nostre richieste. Siamo stati nella sala del fienile, molto accogliente, che ci ha permesso di avere uno spazio tutto per noi in cui abbiamo potuto mettere la musica e partecipare ad un corso di pasta fatta in casa, molto interessante e divertente. Pranzo squisito, come stare dalla nonna. Ottima alternativa in cui organizzare un evento del genere. Consigliato

Ottima vacanza. Sono stata in vacanza con mio marito e mi sono sentita coccolata dall’inizio alla fine..gentilissimo il proprietario ed un plauso va allo chef: abbiamo mangiato divinamente! Ci torneremo sicuramente e lo consiglieremo agli Amici. A presto
