VACCARI EQUESTRIAN is inspired by Puglia’s equestrian & agricultural heritage

Masseria Vaccari is a reflection of Francesco Pezzola’s passion for Puglia, its traditions and rich history. Starting restoration work in 2025, Francesco has revitalised Masseria Vaccari into a wonderful authentic event location with the original stone crafted stables as the hospitality hall. Nestled in the land just a few metres from the masseria, Vaccari Equestrian marks a welcome return it to its noble origins in equestrianism and horse breeding.  

The new equestrian centre has been designed and built combining Francesco Pozella's vast experience as a master stonemason, focussed on conservation and restoration of historic homes, with Paolo Grassi's expertise in horses and natural horsemanship. Every care has been taken by them to provide timeless rural style and comfort for both our horses and guests.

Spacious paddocks, riding arenas, under-olive tree seating and a generous lunging circle offer plenty of space for lessons and training, while the picturesque surrounding land is a delight for horse trekking & carriage rides; the perfect setting for nature lovers to ride, relax and even taste our wine and local gastronomy.
