Old Gallipoli's a Wonderful Place Gallipoli, Apulia

Holiday Rental Description

Nestled in the heart of Old Gallipoli, this wonderfully authentic, light filled home has it all –beautifully preserved historical features, modern home comforts, and the perfect central location. Magnificent vaulted ceilings, original frescoes, and age-old cement tiled floors give you a taste of the region's past while the private roof terrace offers spectacular views out across the Ionian Sea. Accessed via an internal staircase, this is the perfect place to relax come morning, noon or night-time. You’ll want to laze on the sunbed before cooling off under the outdoor shower, barbeque and eat alfresco at the gazebo covered dining table or cosy up together with a glass of wine beneath the stars.

Alternatively spend the day at the Beach of Purity, a mere 200 metres away, or by exploring the old town centre’s numerous Baroque churches and aristocratic palazzi before strolling down to the sea-front promenade and sampling one of the city’s many cafes, bars and restaurants. Whatever you do, at the day’s end make sure not miss the opportunity for that nightcap on the terrace!

Home truths:
*Guest three would be sleeping on a sofa bed in the living area – if you're looking for a home with ample space for socialising, we'd recommend this home for a family with one or two children or for two adult guests only
*Parking in Gallipoli can be tricky, so we recommend sticking to the easily accessible public transport where possible – though we think the best way to see the city is on foot
*Your host can provide a high chair for free upon request
*Though there isn't a dedicated desk here, the breakfast table doubles up as a laptop-friendly workspace
*There's an outdoor shower here
