Excellent property, great location in a lovely city
The property is located in the old city and makes an excellent base for exploring. It is full of character which adds to its appeal. We enjoyed the croissants, chocolate biscuits, milk etc provided, and we appreciated that it was possible to use Netflix on the TV. Giovanni, the property manager, was very easy to contact and was hugely helpful with parking our car outside the ZTL area. On arrival he came and found us when we got lost and on the departure morning he drove us back to our car....grazie mille Giovanni!

Lovely period house in the beautiful historic city of Lecce.
My husband and I spent 10 days in Giovanni's house which was a great base for exploring lovely Puglia. We drove out to beachs on both east and west coasts each day, based on Giovanni's daily weather and wind forecasts which were really helpful. Each night we wandered around Lecce just marvelling at it's amazing acitecture and beauty. We ate and drank out every night overwhelmed at the amount of superb bars and restaurants. I would definitely recommend having a car to get around the area, easy parking costing 2€ a day in Lecce. A great holiday, we will definitely go back again. Thanks Giovanni.x

Excellent location and very spacious
A lovely and very well appointed apartment in the historic centre, only a few minutes walk from the centre with all the bars, cafes and sights. Everything you could need was in the apartment, all very clean and even some welcoming food and drink. Giovanni was most helpful on directions, greeting us, explaining how everything worked (listen very carefully) and giving us tips on where to go, what to see and what beaches are good, depending on the weather/wind! He couldn't be more helpful. Plenty of space, with a good dining area, a nice lounge, good kitchen, great bathroom (shower was good), upstairs bedroom was lovely with much needed air-con (use the spiral staircase carefully) and a very spacious cellar with a big table and more sofas/beds. Only downsides a) was parking was a couple of streets away, but Giovanni again advised us where to park for the best rates (2-3 Euros per day, take lots of coins if you can) b) Not a lot of outside space, but you are in the centre of town, so we often sat outside a local, friendly cafe in the glorious sunshine (it was hot, averaging 35+) reading etc. In summary, a great location and a good base for exploring the heel of Italy. Highly recommended.

Sopra tutto !
Stayed in Giovanni,s apartment for a week in may 2017. Giovanni was the most helpful owner out of all our stays in Italy.Apartment was a 10 minute walk walk to centre of Old Town,but be warned, have a street map and the full apartment address with you as its very easy to get lost.Best thing is to find way to Porto Napoli as most italians will be able to direct you there,and its a couple of minutes from apartment. Another tip is when Giovanni tells you about the tv,s,Heating,window operations,Hot water etc write it all down as its easy to forget. Lecce is beautiful and a joy to just amble round the labrynth of streets,find a nice cafe/bar,sit outside and watch the world go by. We ventured to Gallipoli and Otranto and enjoyed the Beaches and old towns( also the rickety old trains to get you there ! Apartment was fine although the spiral staircase was a bit of a challenge if you wanted to go in the night! All in all Lecce is a must see town Very Quaint ,clean but with a vibrant nightlife not just for youngsters but also OAP,,slike us!

Perfect property for enjoying the historic centre of Lecce
This is a great flat to stay in. It is located inside the old city with its must see churches, beautiful architecture and Roman ruins. The flat is situated in the more residential side rather than the touristy bit of Lecce. It gives you a real feel for the town and its people. Geovanni cannot be a more gracious and helpful host and speaks good English. He suggests some great restaurants and bars and helps you to enjoy your stay. There are local shops to get the basics and great restaurants and bars five minutes from the flat. The flat itself is very clean, well laid out and maintained, with a comfortable open plan bedroom above the sitting room area or if you prefer there are fold out beds in the basement. There are two dining areas as well as a little breakfast table and a step in shower, bathroom with bidet. It has loads of room to move around in. If you want to make your own meals, it has a cooker and fridge and plenty of cutlery and dishes. There are TVs in the bedroom, sitting room and basement areas. The neighbours seem very friendly and if you like cats, there are some local characters wandering around that love the occasional treat and provide entertainment. It is also a very safe area. In fact Lecce overall is very friendly. You could almost eat off the pavement it is so clean. The fantastic local wine and olive oil and amazing portions of food in the restaurants, reasonably priced, will tempt you to come back for more. I have to thank the brothers who own my local restaurant in Fulham, Pizzica, and come from Lecce for their recommendation to visit this "Florence of the South". Otherwise I would never have found this hidden gem. With beaches 20 minutes away what more could you ask for. Highly recommended.
