Masseria Fortificata Lo Zafferaneto  

Perched in the mountains above Buccheri, this fortified masseria sits about 5 km from the town center. It’s close to the Greek Theatre, the Archaeological Park of Neapolis and the Roman Amphitheatre, and within driving distance of Corsino, the Rocky Necropolis of Pantalica, the Dome of Saint George and Noto Antica. Pet-friendly and car-friendly, the property offers free on-site parking and paid airport transfers.

A restored masseria with rustic farmhouse charm and mountain views. The small property has just seven guestrooms with private bathrooms (showers), desks, wardrobes, electric kettles and daily housekeeping. Public spaces include a lobby with a fireplace, a terrace, garden and a picnic area for relaxed outdoor hangs.

Take a dip in the seasonal outdoor pool or lounge by the outdoor swimming pool. Enjoy on-site massages in the massage room, sip drinks at the bar or gather for events — wedding services are available. On-site conveniences include a restaurant, laundry service and a safe-deposit box. Pets are welcome.

Complimentary Wi‑Fi is available across the property and rooms include desks for working. Free self-parking is provided and the front desk is staffed during limited hours.

An on-site restaurant and bar serve guests, and a complimentary local-cuisine breakfast is offered daily from 8:30 AM to 10:30 AM. Expect simple, regional flavors to start the day before heading out to explore.
