We found the Masseria Pozzo Tre Pile Martina Franca very convenient for our short break to Martina Franca. Rooms are spacious with two extremely comfortable queen size beds, they have flat screen Free-view TV's, Air conditioning, Hair-dryer and an electric iron. In addition to this the en-suite is of very high quality. Cleanliness and room service were second to none and all our towels were changed daily although signs indicated that they had to be left on the floor to be changed. Both reception and bar staff were pleasant and always gave a smile. The Masseria was very quite during our stay giving a good night's sleep.

I and y wife and I had a two night stay @ the Masseria Pozzo Tre Pile along with my sister in law and her husband in the next room. It was a spectacular time, there is no better people than the wonderful folks at the Pozzo Tre Pile , Karen and Buck are the most thoghtful of hosts they were there each day and never hesitated to answer any questions and if you ever need a laugh Buck is the MAN he is a very funny man. The location of the Masseria is great, a great view of the GREAT city of Martina Franca and Locorotondo everything is soo close and convenient.

I would rate the Masseria Pozzo Tre Pile on a scale of 0-5, solid 5 all around. The people that live near the Masseria Pozzo Tre Pile on their house boats were the nicest and friendliest people. I would recommend this floating B&B to everyone, not to often you can stay at a B&B that floats and you won't find any fiendlier people around. Looking forward to going back sometime later this year

We stayed in Martina Franca in Mar 2009 for 5 nights and wanted to do a cooking class. Masseria Pozzo Tre Pille was gorgeous and the hosts, Elena, and Vincenzo were wonderful. They are adding many amenities to the property, but what they have so far was very nice and quaint. We were with 4 people from Canada, and there were 4 of us--myself, my husband, my 18 yr old son and my 20 yr old daughter. We started with breakfast on the terrace and went on to make homemade pizza, homemade pasta, appetizers, a kind of pork roast, and dessert. Velia is extremely friendly--excellent English--and very down to earth and funny. We enjoyed her and GianLuca (and Paola and Dominico) immensely! In between the cooking, we had a champagne tasting, a wine tasting and an olive oil tasting! And our pizza crusts were baked in the outdoor wood burning oven Dominico so carefully stoked to the right temperature. We were probably there about 8 hours all together and it was great. Elena gave us her "cookbook" and a framed certificate before we headed for home. It was the highlight of the trip for my kids (and we started in Sorrento for a few days, and ended in Rome for a couple of days!). Velia and GianLuca also own a small bar in Orvieto called the Champagneria and we stopped there before we left Martina Franca to say goodbye. Its very cozy and charming and Velia gave us all kind of goodies to take on the train with us (we were heading to Rome). Needless to say, there were hugs all around when we left. We hope to see them again someday!

My husband and I stayed last week in the two person Masseria Pozzo tre Pile I really wanted nice views and there were!

Upon arrival at the Masseria, we were welcomed by the very friendly and helpful staff, who checked us into the Agrumi room, which overlooked the orange and lemon tree orchard. The view from our room was fantastic and the decor and artefacts of the hotel plunged us into a universe of traditional rural Italy, since the domain had been bought by it's present owners with all it's belongings

The owner for quite helpful. Because the weather was rainy and cold we thoroughly enjoyed sitting by the fire with a glass of wine. It was a great experience and so close to Martina Franca (Taranto)without at all seeming like it was in a city. Unlike the first review we didn't hear any dogs barking at night and hardly none during the day. It was very clean and comfortable place.

The Masseria was a great starting point for excursions around Puglia and to the neighboring beaches, although there are much nicer and quiter beaches to be found if you drive further away north or south along the coast.

Martina Franca is a great town with fantastic food and a fun atmosphere at night. Do not miss out on some of the fresh grilled seafood available at the seaside restaurants, the hotel should be able to recommend the best ones, as I've forgotten the names.

We tried the Trattoria Braceria Local Carni and highly recommend it. I am so glad we found this place.
