The region of Basilicata

Basilicata is considered the heart of Southern Italy, with authentic values of rural culture and where Nature offers some of the most enchanting views.

The Castle of Venosa

Masseria Canestrello is to be found on the boundary line with this splendid region of Castles built by King Frederick II, cathedrals, churches, benedictine abbeys, historical places and landscapes of infinite beauty.

Basilicata is a region of mountains, hills and valleys and with a rich flora of forests and mediterranean scub. The mountain slopes abound in secular trees and rare species of fauna.
There are five rivers, besides a number of lakes and mountain springs.
Situated inland, this region is, and has always been, a meeting point for different cultures.
This valley, within easy reach of our farm, teems with many beautiful landscapes, has a great number of places of architectural and cultural interest, and moreover is enriched by genuine food products which will certainly render your trip here more pleasant.
For example, one of the most extraordinary local wines is the Aglianico of Vulture
