Villa Specchia - Siete Habitaciones Villa, Capacidad 14

An extremely desirable home from home, Villa Specchia combines opulent interiors, extensive, manicured gardens, a glorious pool and daily service to create an exclusive privileged atmosphere. Should you ever wish to leave the considerable comfort of your surroundings, however, a gentle stroll will take you to the quiet, authentic village of Specchia, which has a few traditional restaurants and shops and a gentle, laid-back atmosphere.

Inside: accommodation at Villa Specchia is all on one floor with the exception of one of the bedrooms.

The main entrance leads in to a very large sitting room with three separate sitting areas. To the right, the dining room leads through to a wonderful covered terrace with views of the garden and the pool.

On the opposite side of the living area are two double bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms (one with Jacuzzi bath and shower attachment, one with tub and shower attachment).

Back near the front door is a double-twin bedroom with en-suite shower room and a staircase leading to the first floor, which is home to another double-twin bedroom, also with en-suite shower room.

Beyond the living room is the large kitchen, the laundry room and the fifth and sixth bedrooms, a double and a double-twin sharing a Jack and Jill shower room. The double-twin also has French windows accessing the courtyard.

The last bedroom, a double with en-suite shower room, is situated across a courtyard from the kitchen and accessed externally. Thanks to the presence of a sofa bed, this bedroom may also be used as a twin.

Outside: Villa Specchia is situated in 25 hectares (62 Acres) of private walled gardens, and is perfectly secure and peaceful.

Guests will be sure to spend much of their time between the wonderful covered and furnished patio and the green lawns surrounding the large pool. The pool furnishings are naturally of the highest quality. The internal courtyard of the Masseria traps the sun beautifully on a spring morning and the extensive gardens invite leisurely strolls, or simply long reading sessions in the shade of a tree.

You may also wish to know that the pool has a single depth of 1.6m.

This property is surrounded by countryside, some of which is unfenced and may include drops or steep slopes. We therefore recommend that younger children are supervised by an adult when exploring the grounds.

Please note that there is a pond in the grounds that is not fenced.

Although this property is located within walking distance of a few shops and traditional restaurants, we strongly recommend that you hire a car.
Villa Specchia is within walking distance of the centre of the charming, authentic village of Specchia from which the villa takes its name. Its quiet streets are home to some impressive baroque palazzi and churches as well as a few traditional restaurants serving local fare and some shops.

The nearest beaches around Ugento and Pescoluse on the Ionian coast are within about 25 minutes drive, as are the charming villages of Leuca, Tricase and Castro Marina. Lovers of culture will not want to miss a visit to the stunning baroque jewel of Lecce, the dramatic walled island of Gallipoli, or the defensive city of Otranto, all of which are within very comfortable "day-trip" distance.

Arrival details will be confirmed by The Thinking Traveller after your villa is confirmed.

The Thinking Traveller can organise transfers and car hire and an agent will be in touch with you once your villa is confirmed.
