Villa Set Amongst Shimmering Olive Trees
Peaceful Location, Minutes from Beach and Golf Course
Sleeps 4 (2 Bedrooms)
|
|
Nestled amongst a sea of shimmering olive trees just a few minutes from the beach and a beautiful golf course, Casa Arras in San Foca makes a perfect base for golfing and exploring this unspoilt region yet to be discovered by tourism. The beautiful cathedral town of Lecce (the Florence of Apulia) is 20 mins drive to explore and admire the decorative and baroque architecture of the old town. Alberobello is another must for explorers where street after street is lined with white washed 'trulli' characteristic of the region.

Coast/Beach
The beach and marina at San Foca is only 2km away. The rugged coastline has little coves as well as long stretches of sand and the sea views are breathtaking.
All along the coastline to the right and left of San Foca you will find lovely beach towns, San Catalda, Rocca and Otranto to name but a few. Or you can travel right down to the end of the heel to Santa Maria di Leuca, passing amazing scenery along the way - approximately a 1 hour drive and well worth a visit.
Golf
Acaya Golf Club is only a 15 minute drive from the property. This is an 18 hole, par 72 course and challenging! There are discounted green fees for villa guests. English is spoken here and the 19th hole serves a very good meal. The clubhouse is currently undergoing re-furbishment and will re-open in October - great for a late holiday or for next year!
Travel
Brindisi's modern airport is a 1 hour drive to the property and Ryanair fly here on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday. There is an option to fly into Bari which is covered by British Airways and Ryanair and is approx 2 hours easy motorway driving. Car hire is essential for the property and all major car rental companies have bases at the airport.
Distances
Melendugno can be found 2km inland from the property and
Vernole is located 3km inland - both are ideal for local shopping.
Further details
The nearest major supermarket Carrefour and shopping mall is approx 30 mins drive away near Lizanello. Lecce is the nearest major town approx. 20 mins drive from the villa where you will find banking and post office facilities. The pace here is slow and relaxed, but it does change throughout the seasons. At the height of the season in July and August San Foca transforms into a buzzing hub where many Italians come for their summer break. Out of season you can still find restaurants offering excellent fresh local dishes, particularly from Thursday - Sunday.
