Masseria Bosco, in the countryside of Avetrana, is an ancient 17th-century farm characterized by the union of multiple buildings around a central nucleus, the manor house.\n\nAll around, the spaces that were once used for housing colonists and stables unfold, including the jazzo, the oldest heart of the entire complex.\n\nOver the centuries, subsequent expansions have led to the creation of new areas such as the stable with a large fireplace, the chapel, the warehouses for dairy products dating back to the 17th century, and the noble floor intended as the residence of the farm manager, from the 18th century.\n\nThe trullo salentino with steps located in the area once used for counting sheep, the ancient mule track, and the threshing floor area destined for grain processing using the pisara, the large stone pulled by a mule, all recall the original agricultural-pastoral vocation of the masseria.\n\nToday, the masseria is a hospitality structure.
