Step through the ancient doorway of this villa and into a world where history whispers from every stone. Housed in a fourteenth-century building with a storied past – from Byzantine reception hall to Jesuit school and Palace of Justice – this is a place that wears its age with grace. Vaulted ceilings, exposed stonework, and hidden courtyards speak of centuries gone by, while the pools, sun-dappled terraces, and serene bedrooms bring modern comfort to the timeless setting. Tucked within Morciano di Leuca’s historic heart, it’s a peaceful base for exploring Puglia and its whitewashed villages, before returning to your own private slice of history.

Home truths:
*While not all bedrooms and bathrooms are photographed, expect the style and quality to be consistent with the rest of the home.
*This home is set within a centuries-old building, so expect lots of charm – think stone walls, vaulted ceilings, and architectural quirks – rather than sleek, modern finishes.
*Nestled in the heart of Morciano di Leuca’s historic centre, there’s no private parking, but free public spaces are a short stroll away.
