About this property

After buying the property, we personally over-viewed the restoration of this typical stone house (locally called "pajara") composed of two connected blocks, one of which is circular in shape. Originally built to store agricultural tools and occasionally supply a roof to olive pickers in the autumn months, it is now a fully equipped villa with a rural character. The outside space is ideally organized to enjoy the long sunny days and cool summer evenings by the pool and under the large canopy or the shade of the olive trees. There is an outdoor shower next to the pool (10m x 5m). The house has a Wi-Fi connection. Especially during the summer months, visitors can enjoy numerous religious and cultural events. Food festivals are organized almost daily by the surrounding villages where a variety of local delicacies and wines can be tasted. Numerous beautiful sandy and rock beaches are reachable within a short drive, the closest being 8min away.

A great place to be!

It's been a great stay, as the house is beautiful and the terrace and garden are very spacious and nice. Communication with the host Emanuela functioned very quickly and easily. Livio, the man who welcomes you at the beginning, is a very nice person too! I can really recommend this holiday destination with a dream garden!

Wir hatten eine traumhafte Zeit

Wir hatten das Haus für 7 Nächte gebucht und waren absolut begeistert. Das Haus lässt keine Wünsche offen. Der Pool sorgte im Besonderen bei unseren Kindern für sehr viel Freude. Der Pool ist an einer Stelle so tief, dass man von dem kleinen Sprungbrett sehr gut in den Pool springen kann. Wir hatten schon viele Häuser mit Pool, jedoch war dieser vom Spaßfaktor her herausstechend. Der gesamte Außenbereich ist sehr gepflegt und hat mehrere Orte an denen man sich gemütlich aufhalten kann. Durch die besonders warme Zeit im Sommer waren die klimatisierten Schlafzimmer eine Wohltat in der Nacht. Emanuela ist eine sehr freundliche Gastgeberin, die einem die gesamte Zeit mit Rat und Tat zur Seite steht. Danke Emanuela für diese tolle Zeit! Auch Livio, der sich um den Garten und Pool gekümmert hat, ist ein sehr freundlicher Mensch. Wir können den Aufenthalt uneingeschränkt weiterempfehlen.

About the host

Hosted by Emanuela Pace

My name is Emanuela and together with my husband and children would like to welcome all our guests to our peaceful retreat! My husband and I are originally from this area but we have been living abroad, in different countries, for over twenty years. We bought this property in 2008 and had the stone house completely refurbished because we wanted to give some tangible roots to our children. We wanted them to have a sense of belonging since they were born abroad and always lived far away from their extended family. I am happy to say that this goal has been achieved! We have rented our house for many years and all our guests have always been very satisfied. Some of them have also come back.

Why they chose this property

Our house is quite unique in shape and it is immersed in the typical Salento countryside: intense red soil, century old olive trees and deep scent from bushes of lavender, rosemary and sage. It is a very quiet place and the only noise during the day is the sound of the cicadas, but the nearest village with shops, cafés and good trattorias is just over a kilometer away. The swimming pool provides a welcomed sense of relief from the heat, but many different beaches are within a short drive and they are definitely worth exploring. It is also very interesting to visit the old towns of Gallipoli and Otranto, just to name a couple of unique places within a short drive distance, and it is highly recommended to explore the historic centre of Lecce with its many baroque churches and buildings.

What makes this property unique

Our house also offers the possibility to experience the delicious local cuisine. There is an abundance of restaurants or trattorias and the price for eating good quality meals is extremely reasonable. For the guests who like to cook there is a vegetable garden just a few steps away from the house and vegetables can be just picked and prepared. The house comes complete with our “guardian angel” Livio who will be welcoming the guests and can be contacted at any moment for information or assistance. He doesn’t speak English but is able to communicate. We can always be reached by phone and will try to help as much as possible.
