masseria di charme
torre dell’orso
Staying at Borgo Sentinella makes you want to discover the origins and traditions of the land of Salento. Here, nature and the human creations have found harmony. A pure spectacle will open before your eyes and it will be love at first sight!
White walls, rooms with names that evoke the region, minimalist furnishings in the traditional style of the masseria, a large swimming pool and flourishing Mediterranean vegetation will frame your stay and make you want nothing more than to be here.
A place where you can experience moments of pure relaxation where the soundtrack is the sound of nature: the rustling of leaves, the gentle breeze blowing at sunset, the song of cicadas during the day and crickets at sunset will be the melody of your Salento summers.
OUR HISTORY
Borgo Sentinella is a splendid example of rural recovery with the technique of ‘poor recovery’ that uses materials and techniques from the past with low environmental impact.
Some accommodations have been obtained from the old stables and have ceilings with the typical ribbed vaults, while others have ceilings with the characteristic star vaults of the old Salento farms. All the accommodations have been carefully restored using environmentally friendly materials. The walls have been reconstructed with lime, hemp and cement to maintain a constant temperature of 20 degrees throughout the year in the rooms. The minimalist and refined furnishings were designed to respect the original style of the masseria.

what guests say
The rooms are simply but nicely appointed, especially the bathrooms. The hotel’s pool is absolutely stunning and the staff are fabulous – some of the best, friendliest and most helpful whom we have encountered. It is a happy place and we had a wonderful time here.
Absolutely 100% wonderful!!! We would recommend this beautiful place without any hesitation. The staff, pool, room, breakfast and grounds are truly exceptional. So unique and authentic throughout. This is a must stay in the Torre dell’Orso area!
Beautiful hotel with really kind and helpful staff. We stayed for three nights and greatly enjoyed the healthy breakfasts and lounging by the pool (and loved that the bar lady brought us some water and snacks without us asking). Great location for day trips across Salento.
