Very close to the beach and provided with all comforts and moreover close to Lecce, Brindisi and Capo Leuca… Everything you’re looking for your holiday in Puglia is located in Salento, in the South and in this wonderful house.

Casa Gelso is a “pajara”, a traditional stone house typical of basso Salento, the southern region of Puglia, and it’s just 900 meters away from the beach of Tricase. The house is part of an estate that includes four “pajare” built in the 19th century, and accurately renovated in 2010. All four houses are included in a plot of 7 hectares, planted with olive, almond and fig trees: from their cultivation comes the delicious olive oil and fig jam in different flavours, homemade by the members of the family that owns the property Borgo Terra Rossa.

The estate is provided with all the comforts for a relaxing stay: air conditioning, fireplace, two bedrooms, dishwasher, washing machine, and a beautiful outdoor terrace.

Famous for its sandy beaches, clear sea water and Baroque cities like Lecce, known as the Florence of the South, the Southern region of Puglia is surely a fascinating destination. Casa Gelso is located near the beach of Tricase, that extends from Otranto to the southernmost point of Puglia, Santa Maria di Leuca. The town of Tricase is a small hamlet, well known for its farming products and handicraft.
Its beautiful countryside offers unique sights to all its visitors and some of the touristic spots in town are definitely worth a visit: the Baroque Presbytery from the 18th century, the 17th century Church of St. Dominic, and Palazzo Gallone, an ancient castle of the 14th century are just a few of the historic buildings you’ll have the chance to visit. A few kilometers away from Tricase, on the coast, you’ll find the town of Porto Tricase, well known for its crystal clear sea.
