About this property

Holiday home near Lecce - Salento with star-shaped features

Home from the early 1900s, completely renovated with two large rooms with star vaults in tuff and walls built with the characteristic Lecce stone. The house is located in a village on the outskirts of Lecce and is situated in a street that enjoys maximum tranquility.
Composed of a double bedroom, a room with a star vault with a sofa bed and a mezzanine with two beds, a kitchen, a bathroom and a courtyard. The house allows access to both a small terrace and a larger terrace.
Activities all within a few meters: Pharmacy, pizzeria, rotisserie with ready-to-go dishes, supermarket, bar, household goods.
Very convenient to discover the wonders of Salento. At about 200 meters there is a bus stop to reach the city of Lecce which is 4 km away. , the house is located just 5 minutes from the historic center of Lecce and with just 3 minutes by car you can reach the Lecce ring road and therefore with convenient highways you can reach the most important places, towards the Adriatic coast about 30 min. Otranto, towards the Ionian coast about 30 min. Gallipoli. It takes about 40 min to reach Porto Cesareo. from the ring road.
In the month of July the town of Merine hosts one of the most popular events in Salento in recent years: "La sagra te lu ranu". Not to be missed, in three days there are also 80/100 thousand presences.
At the end of August, the most important event that has become a cult event is held in Melpignano about 25 km away: "La notte della Taranta", a marathon that lasts all night with music and traditional Salento dances, the so-called "Pizzica".
Smoking is not allowed, pets are not allowed and it is forbidden to organize parties / events and disturb the neighborhood.
Check-in time: 16:00 - 20:00
Depending on the time of year, I will be personally available, alternatively there is a person I trust who will be able to replace me.
In any case, I will always be available to give advice and help.

A charming property in a very quiet area
We stayed a month at Casa Gianni. A spacious, clean property in a small 'village' on the outskirts of Lecce. We only went sightseeing a few days, so used Radio taxis (25-30 euros each way to Lecce) rather than hiring a car. Bus service almost non-existent. Driving into Lecce is not for fainthearted as streets are full of pedestrians. Supermarket (open 8-2 and 5-8) closed Sundays, plus a bar, pharmacy, florists and butchers nearby. The only eaterie, the Pizzeria seemed to open at random hours around 7pm only. There was a good sized fridge/freezer and hob/oven plus microwave, but kitchen equipment was too basic: eg no carving knives or kettle initially, so we had to heat water either in a saucepan on hob or a mug in the microwave. However, when we spoke to Claudia, she brought us these in a few hours. She's friendly and helpful. Likewise, broken lock on washing machine was fixed with an engineer fitting a new door the same day. The courtyard is very small and lacks any seating. A garden table and chairs would make sitting out and writing/eating outside much more comfortable than using kitchen chairs. It is beautifully sunny about 5-6 hours a day. The rooftop terrace was just a rooftop with no seating. Welcome pack of salt/pepper/coffee/milk/bottled water plus bathroom soap would help late arrivals as the supermarket closes 8ish. Also needs local info sheet. Wifi was unreliable. Weekly cleaner was bookable for about €10/hr. Enjoyed our stay.

I was born in Merine and living until the age of 20 years, then for a military career have emigrated in an area of low Ferrara where I live for about 30 years. My childhood I 've lived in the beautiful places of Lecce and the province, and has always been my desire is to make known to the people who are in the land of Salento, its many treasures.

Why they chose this property

My house that I just renovated, is a 'house from the beginning of the' 900, built by my grandparents always belonged to my family.
The strategically enviable position of this house (4km away. Lecce and about 30 min. From Otranto and Gallipoli), convinced me to rent it as a holiday home to give to future guests, the opportunity to discover the wonders of the beautiful Baroque city of Lecce and appreciate the beautiful towns and beaches of the coasts of the two seas of Salento, all this for a stay that will be unforgettable.

What makes this property unique

Consists of two large rooms with vaulted ceilings in tuff and walls built with the characteristic local stone, also it gives you the opportunity to enjoy two terraces.
One of the rooms with vaulted ceilings, has a large window across arch that besides being a source of light, creates a remarkable and pleasant visual effect.
The house is located in a village on the outskirts of Lecce is located in a street that enjoys peace.
