Casina Fontana is situated in a prime location within the Lecce countryside, nestled in the picturesque setting of the Valle della Cupa, an area renowned for its natural beauty and the harmony between rural architecture and landscape. This region, dotted with ancient farmhouses, centuries-old olive groves, and vineyards, has a historical connection to agriculture and vacationing—an association that continues to define its identity today.
The area where the property is located is particularly serene, making it ideal for those looking to escape urban chaos while still enjoying the convenience of reaching the center of Lecce in just a few minutes. The baroque city, with its monuments, churches built from local limestone, and the lively atmosphere of the historic center, is only a short distance away. Nearby towns like Lequile and San Pietro in Lama are also easily accessible, offering authentic glimpses into Salento life, including artisan shops, sunlit squares, and small local festivals.
Moreover, the proximity to the coastline allows for easy exploration of the Lecce beaches: in just twenty minutes by car, you can reach the white sandy shores and crystal-clear waters of the Ionian coast, perfect for a day at the beach or to witness a sunset against the backdrop of the Mediterranean scrub.
Thanks to its central location, Casina Fontana serves as an excellent starting point for discovering the Salento region in all its diversity—from the baroque architecture of Lecce to the Adriatic coast, from culinary traditions to nature reserves, along with historic villages and food and wine trails. The surrounding countryside invites relaxing walks, moments of reflection, or cycling routes through dry stone walls and the scents of the land, all within a setting that beautifully combines tranquility and exploration.
