    It’s not close close to the center, there is not much around. So you need to take your to get to restaurants or the center but you can find parking close to the center no problem.

    Very spacious, gorgeous, private, the pool was nice! Amazing that you have parking on site (gated parking). Very cozy. There’s a gym 1 block away from the Villa which was nice.

    It is great to have so much space, in an authentic villa, your own kitchen, a little patio, and still so close to the city center.

    The bathroom is quite small although the shower was good. It would be useful to have the name of the property on the gate where you need to park as it’s hard to find.

    A beautiful, historic property with vaulted ceilings and a large space with a well equipped kitchen. It’s in a good location with a 15 minute walk to the old town. The added bonus is the pool area. Although it’s slightly overlooked, it’s a lovely pool with sun beds and chairs. We really enjoyed our stay here and would recommend it.

    The fact that we get coupons to go across the street for breakfast… limited to a fresh juice, coffee and croissant, compared to a buffet breakfast generally served in all properties as expected. We wish to stress on the fact that, based on our comments, the owner couldn’t have been nicer and generous: we found that night in our room a nice basket with a lot of goodies. We truly appreciated this nice gesture!…

    Extra big room but bathroom could be a little bit larger… Charm of the property. Lovely garden.

    There was nothing not to like! However as its an old property the sound proofing is understandably not great so there was some street noise as we had a room at the front.

    This is a very unique property located within a few minutes walk of both the train station and entrance to the old town. We spent a very relaxing few days enjoying the garden and pool. Rooms are large with a shared kitchen and breakfast is provided by a cafe across the road. Owners are super nice and even offered us a lift to the train station with our bags. I would definitely recommend.

    We stayed here in September 2023 for 3 nights. Lovely traditional villa which is walking distance from Leece old town. The room was very spacious and had good facilities. The manager Francesca was very welcoming and informative telling us all we needed to know about the local area. Lovely pool although we did not get much use out of it due to the weather being quite overcast. Breakfast was across the road in ‘Dannys’ a lovely coffee with orange juice and a pastry. We also met the owner on the last day who was very friendly and her husband gave us a lift to the train station to save us getting a taxi which was a nice end to our trip.

    Great location away from the hustle of the city centre which was a 15 mins walk away. Friendly and helpful manager who spoke excellent English. An old property with oodles of character, comfy bed and powerful shower. Great to have a swimming pool and plenty of sun beds. Breakfast taken across the road at a lovely cafe.

    The guesthouse made contact and responded immediately to all inquiries. The owners are a lovely couple, very hospitable! Signora Sofia helped us out immediately with a problem we had. Francesca was there to greet us upon arrival and booked restaurants for us. The bedroom was great and we had the best night’s sleep there. It is within a 15 minute walk to the historic centre of Lecce.

    The location! A short walk to the portal of the old city, also a couple hundred meters from a wonderful cafe (Danny’s) where the breakfast was provided, and a laundromat where they offered drop off service! And the room itself felt palatial! Very roomy, beautifully decorated. Access to the shared kitchen was great for making coffee and tea. Also, the private parking is a relief, highly recommend opting for it. Also, if she is still involved, our contact Francesca was wonderful and helpful. One of our favorite places on our Italian road trip!

    A better mattress would have made the night sleeps just that much better. However the service and location made up for any bumps in the bed.!!

    We stayed at this amazing, historical home for five nights. Loved the location! Within walking distance to all that we wanted to see and felt safe. The access to a local grocery store, store for nick nacks, bakery, etc. was extremely close and the shop owners were welcoming and helpful. Enjoyed the complimentary breakfast each morning at Daniel's across the street. Sophia and Giampaolo were amazing, kind hosts. Helping with sights to see, beaches to go to for our interest, local sights and the best time to visit them, etc. Responsive and gracious people who share their pride in their home and its history. Use of a fridge, a kitchen space for coffee making, a sitting room for eating and relaxing was a bonus.
