This historic country residence is located in the beautiful countryside of Salento. It has been carefully restored from a 17th-century farmhouse, surrounded by a centuries-old pine forest and immersed in the sounds of nature. Just a few minutes from the renowned historic center of Galatina and the precious Basilica of Santa Caterina d'Alessandria, it is the perfect base for an artistic stay just a few kilometers from the crystal-clear waters of the Ionian and Adriatic Seas. Delicious breakfasts are served in the original barrel-vaulted room, where animals were once kept and tobacco leaves were dried. The farmhouse is located on a 15-hectare estate, where native varieties of olive trees are cultivated for the production of excellent organic extra virgin olive oil, as well as ancient varieties of durum wheat Cappelli. The suggestive vaults of living stone, skillfully rediscovered, give a romantic and rustic touch. The furnishings and materials have been carefully selected to preserve the warmth of the spaces and the original rural architecture. The annexes offer the comfort of a small kitchen, ideal for those who love independence and practicality. This minimalist accommodation combines style and comfort, with the use of selected materials such as Lecce stone and original coverings.
