An extraordinary experience in a remote quiet area of south Salento. I spent 4 weeks in this typical house right outside the village of Corsano, where I found the peace and quiet I was seeking to work on my current writing project, with my wife joining me for the last week.

Loredana and family (Milena, Davide, Maria, Vincenzo and co.) welcomed me with open arms and were very nice and attentive to whatever I may have needed to make my stay that extra special. After 4 weeks it is really hard not to feel attached, I already miss them!

The house is very comfortable and has everything one would need to feel truly at home, with good-size rooms, bathroom, as well as a nice kitchen area (for those like us who prefer cooking to eating out).

The house is literally fronted and surrounded by olive groves, making the atmosphere perfectly bucolic and inspirational. I would set myself up on the terrace every day with my computer to write, it was just perfect.

The house is also just a few minutes away from the coast, where I found superb swimming spots (Acquaviva, Punto Ciolo, etc.) , as well as bars and restaurants in various nearby coastal towns (Leuca, Tricase, Castro).

I sincerely recommend the place and can honestly say that Kim and I will gladly return, hopefully at some point next year.

An unforgettable stay!
