Gallipoli, with its historical center perched on an island connected to the mainland, is a must-visit destination for fans of Salento's culture and traditions.

The city is also famous for its nightlife and waterfront venues, ideal for enjoying a sunset aperitif or a fun-filled evening.

The B&B's location, just 600 meters from the Gallipoli - Santa Maria di Leuca highway exit, ensures excellent connections with the rest of Salento. In no time, you can reach enchanting places like Santa Maria di Leuca, known for its picturesque lighthouse and 19th-century villas, Otranto with its medieval village and mosaic cathedral, or Lecce, the baroque capital filled with churches, historic buildings, and artisan shops.

Food lovers will discover a true paradise in this area. Local restaurants and trattorias serve traditional Salento dishes, such as frisella, orecchiette with turnip tops, eggplant parmesan, and pittule. The local markets provide a fantastic opportunity to explore the region's authentic products, from cheeses and cured meats to extra virgin olive oil, the pride of local production.
