Location description

The area is famous for its spotless sea and beaches but there are many interesting historic towns and cities within easy reach, such as Gallipoli and the stunning Baroque regional capital Lecce. The villa is one minute's walk to the beaches and crystal clear waters of the Ionian Sea and 10 minutes' level walk to the excellent range of restaurants, bars and shops.

This area of Puglia is called Salento. The nearest sizeable town to Torre San Giovanni is Ugento, a few kilometres inland, while the landmark city is historic Gallipoli, some 16kms north along the coast.

The nearest major city is the regional capital Lecce, regarded as one of the most beautiful in Italy, while the civil airport at Brindisi is about an hour's drive away.

The area offers a wide range of outdoor activities and relaxation - walking, cycling and horse riding, or sunbathing on the stunning beaches - as well as plenty of historic sights and a wide range of entertainment opportunities for all ages.

The Greek influence remains obvious to this day, rather as it does in Sicily. Lecce, the 'Florence of the South', bursts with Baroque; Otranto has a medieval castle, fortress and is well worth a visit; the historic port of Gallipoli has a spectacular harbour and a fascinating maze of narrow streets. Santa Cesarea Terme, Castro Marino, Santa Maria di Leuca (the end of Italy), Pescoluse, Porto Selvaggio, Santa Maria al Bagno, Santa Caterina and Porto Cesareo are just some of the places that are a must!

The local food and wine are superb and inexpensive and almost invariably organic. Everything is dictated by the seasons. Restaurants obtain their produce locally. The pace of life is slow, the food is delicious and the people are friendly and welcoming.

For an authentic taste of Italy that is far removed from the usual tourist destinations further north, Puglia offers something charming and utterly different - an unforgettable and unique experience.

Local events

There are numerous local festas all year round in all the surrounding downs and villages.
