The building belongs to the “Agnano” ancient compound and was bought by theSanta Chiara convent of Nardò on 31st December 1453,  although local historicaldata, backdates the existence of this big farmhouse to the XIV century.The origin of the name Bernardini goes back to the name of Donato AntonioBernardini, belonging to the noble family that bought the Masseria and the entire Agnano farmhouse about 1750.Outside the Masseria Bernardini and inside of the next MasseriaAgnano, lies a typical sighting and defence tower, a wonderful example ofwhich centuries of war have sadly left us little.Masseria Bernardini functioned like masseria till 1989, with “massari” who attendedto olives grove and to production of ricotta and other cheese.The Masseria remained dormant for more than one decade and today, after ameticulous restoration, carried out with absolute respect for shapes, spaces andoriginal elements, it’s become a small  and smart Art-Resort.
Spacious, bright  and romantic double room with bathroom. On its walls, paintings of Nathalie Du Pasquier.
