OUR GUESTS’ WORDS

  • Was a great orchard and enjoyed the tasting and visit to the old facility underground and learning how they used to do it hundreds of years ago. Was a rainy day so unfortunately didn't get to spend much time in the trees, but I think that would have been lovely! Very friendly owners.

    We organised Terra che Vive to come to our villa and run a pasta making class, then have them cook our party of 12 dinner. This was such an amazing experience! They were well organised bringing all required equipment and arrived with 3 staff who were professional and friendly all evening. The food and level of service was incredible. Highly recommend.

    We made our own pasta with Gaetano, it was a great experience! Our children (5 & 6) loved him, the cooking and the result as well! It was great fun and very delicious... he prepared several courses with tasty ingredients from his own garden. We can highly recommend the pasta making class!

    It was so amazing, we had the best time with davide and francesco, who were both so patient with some of our not-so-talented chefs. The meal itself was delicious, we were with people from Venice and Milan, and they loved the meal so much. The sausage mushroom cherry tomato sauce was beyond my wildest dreams.

  • We enjoyed an excellent visit at this friendly, informative and interesting location. We started to really understand how extra virgin olive oil is made and why there are differences. Our host was lovely and her passion shone thru. Very genuine place. Would highly recommend.

    No such a great experience when done authentically in the farmhouse (masseria) of Anna, fabulous hosting and guidance of Marco and the great funny grandma Francesca. Even our younger child (although 20 yrs old) who doesn't cook had actively participating and enjoyed the preparation of the various pastas. Ending the cooking session with a delicious lunch prepared by Anna from our hand making pasta accompanied with local wine and the local pasticciotto, and yes, Anna cherry 🍒 liquor was of a timely great finale. Thank you again Marco, Francesca and Anna . Would love to return back. Big hugs and love from us.

    Davvero consigliato. Abbiamo portato degli amici stranieri sia al tour enologico che a quello oleario. Entrambi notevoli, calorosa accoglienza e degustazioni ottime
