Vetted by our experts

About five kilometres from the heart of Cutrofiano, you'll find this 1970s villa surrounded by fields and meadows. Split into two apartments, this one welcomes groups of ten to experience the tranquillity of the Italian countryside. Though the antique decor might not be for everyone, it doesn't take away from the comfort of the space. We especially like the frescoed ceiling of the main bedroom. Outside, shared with the ground-floor apartment, you'll find gardens, ample seating, a bar and orchard, and a swimming pool the kids will want to spend entire days in. Location-wise, you'll find plenty of villages nearby to visit. The beach is eighteen kilometres from this home.

Peace of mind guaranteed with every booking.

We promise expert-vetted homes, total transparency and exceptional service.

About Lecce

Lecce’s famous baroque architecture is what sets it apart from its fellow sun-soaked Puglian cities. Think basilicas adorned with rose windows and intricately carved Madonnas, floral columns, and gargoyles galore – all in the pale stone of Puglia.
