The apartment is simple and elegant in the traditional style, set on a very quiet road with a lovely tranquil garden with upstairs terrace and a more shaded terrace at the bottom of the garden. The kitchen is very well equipped. My family and I are keen cooks, and had everything we needed there. The beds are comfortable and the bedrooms have good shutters on the windows that block out the light completely. Morciano di Leuca is a small peaceful town with little traffic. Within 5mins walk from the apartment is a greengrocer, baker, small supermarket, and patisserie shop. There is a fresh pasta shop 7mins walk away. There are a couple of restaurants in the town that had great reviews, that we didn’t manage to try. There are two small cafe/bars around the corner from the apartment. Philippe was a great host who answered any questions very quickly. The house is managed by Tonino and his daughter Erica who are kind and friendly people. When we arrived there was a beautiful bottle of Salentine wine waiting for us. Halfway through the holiday, Tonino brought over some beautiful local patisseries. When we checked out he brought us some savoury scones for the plane. We really enjoyed our stay and hope to come back again in the future.
