About this property

View of the Tower, accommodation in the historic center and WiFi

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Wake up to the scent of freshly baked pasticciotto, step out onto the balcony, and admire the ancient Clock Tower marking the passage of time along the stone streets: this is the experience that awaits you at "Il Rintocco".

A historic residence in the heart of Galatina, tastefully decorated with tradition and charm, featuring a private terrace and every comfort.

Perfect for those dreaming of an authentic, romantic, and unforgettable stay in the heart of Salento.

🏠 The House – Tradition, Warmth, and Character
“Il Rintocco” is not just a house: it’s a small treasure chest of history and beauty.

Located on Via Vittorio Emanuele II, the high street of Galatina’s historic centre, the residence overlooks the Clock Tower, which has been marking time in the town for centuries.

Every detail evokes Salento: from the stone walls to the terracotta crafts, from the sound of the bell chimes to the warm light streaming through the windows.

On the ground floor, you’ll find a cosy, bright double bedroom with a large private balcony facing the pedestrian street, a modern bathroom with a shower, and a kitchen area fully equipped for preparing meals and enjoying the home in comfort and style.
The table, chairs, and carefully selected furnishings create an atmosphere that blends contemporary comfort with timeless charm.

Upstairs, a welcoming open space features a sofa bed for two, a second full bathroom, and access to a private terrace with lounge chairs, a parasol, and a small table—perfect for sunny breakfasts, sunset aperitifs, or evenings spent stargazing.

🗺 The Location – In the Heart of Galatina
The location is simply perfect.
Just steps from everything:

• Right in front of you, the Clock Tower—the town’s iconic landmark;
• Just downstairs, the historic Ascalone pastry shop, birthplace of the original pasticciotto;
• To your right, the majestic Mother Church of Saints Peter and Paul;
• Around the corner, the breathtaking Basilica of Saint Catherine of Alexandria, with its stunning frescoes admired around the world.

Every morning, stroll among ancient stones, sip coffee at the café downstairs, and lose yourself in alleys lined with artisan shops and noble palaces. Galatina is authentic, refined, laid-back, and genuine.

The perfect base for exploring all of Salento—from Lecce to Otranto, Gallipoli, and the crystal-clear sea.
