Photos and Description of this Galatina holiday house 16th Century historic holiday home, nearby Ionion and Adriatic white beaches

This spacious 4-bedroom art-deco styled town house was originally part of a 16th Century library and has since been renovated to an extremely high standard by award winning 'Puglia Estates' as seen on Grand Designs. The apartment spans back from a grand entrance and stair-case to reveal room upon room of living space. The modern kitchen is fully equipped with 5-burner gas stove, dishwasher, washing machine, fridge freezer However, the real heart of the cooking/eating area is the original kitchen where once wood burning stoves were located and which leads out onto a beautiful dining terrace for enjoying breakfast or an evening bottle of wine al-fresco. The townhouse consists of a large lounge, 4 double bedrooms (three en-suite) mean you don't have to struggle with sofa-beds and a large spectacular roof terrace combined with two further private terraces allow a variety of sunbathing options. The apartment is equipped with aircon and heating.

Located in Centro Storico Galatina the apartment is within a few short steps to restaurants, cafes, bakeries, gelateria and shops. The town itself, being designated a Citta d'Arte, you'll find yourself surrounded by Baroque architecture with fine examples such as the beautiful frescoes of Basilica Santa Caterina. Further afield the bustling baroque provincial capital, Lecce, is only a 20 minute hop away, with it's Duomo and Roman amphitheatre, much more impressive than the larger northern Puglian towns of Bari or Brindisi. For sea, sand and gelato Galatina is also within easy reach of the Ionian (Gallipoli, Santa Maria al Bagno, Porto Cesareo) and the Adriatic (Otranto, Torre dell'Orso, Castro) coastlines. Find yourself amongst the Trulli at Alberobello, walking the old town of Ostuni, the White City, or gazing out where the Ionion and Adriatic meet at Sta. Maria di Leuca, the 'Lands End' of Puglia, all just a day trip away.

Further details for this holiday house rental in Galatina, Italy

Additional information: As with many old properties in Italy, there are lots of steep marble stairs between floors (the ceilings are very high and the house spans over 3 floors), and very high roof terraces with waist high walls. As a result, the apartment may be unsuitable for people of reduced/impaired mobility or young children (under 10). It is the guests' responsibility to ensure the safety of their children. Having said this, the apartment is full of character and original features, and the high terraces afford spectacular views of Galatina and the surrounding area. Smokers are welcome, but we do request that guests only smoke outdoors on the roof terraces.

Foodpacks and local knowledge: You will be met at the house with the keys and shown around by someone who has lived in the area for a few years. This allows us to impart some very local knowledge such as the best places to eat, or the nicest beach to get your suntan. We are also able to provide you with a food pack should you arrive late and just want to settle in without having to find supermarkets open. If you would like a little something special, such as a nice fizzy prosecco, we can accommodate any request.

my week in galatina

margaretmp london england
Review Submitted: November 11, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
The property is newly restored to the highest standard The main bedroom and the guest room is with ensuite bathrooms. There are other showerrooms and toilet.
There is a wonderful terrace off the kitchen for drinks and meals and a wonderful patio where one can sunbathe play games or show films.
The property was clean and with daily help available
It is near enough to the sea. I visited various beaches of different types, one reminded me of the coast of cornwall.
There are restaurants on the beaches of a high standard especially the fish restaurants.In galatina itself there are various restaurants to suit all tastes, would suit families or adults.
There is a magificent church with original frescoes from the medaeval period of the town
The vegetable van comes round to the door and there is a supermarket quite close by..This is perfect for a family with guests who want separation from the rest of the group and it has lots of space. It is 40 minutes drive from Bari airport, I went by Ryan air but BA flies to Brindisi. You need to hire car at the airport or bring your own in order to explore the country side and the beaches. The nearest big town is Lecce but the nearbye towns are full of historical mementows like Otranto. I was an area very involved in the 2nd world war when the allies came up Itlay.I thouroughly enjoyed my week there but in August it is quite hot.
