Paula has a lovely ground floor apartment; spacious, well furnished with exquisite taste, kilim rugs and a useful kitchen area. It has been newly refurbished and is on the ground floor of an 18th(?) century limestone building in the old centre of Lecce. We went in October when the weather was rainy and the apartment felt a little damp and dark. However our hosts were lovely and welcoming, even picking us up from the Railway Station (thanks, Mario!). The location was superb, quiet but just off the main drag. Useful too was the gorgeous fresh food market simply a five minute stroll away. The photo does not do justice to a drawdropping place. Good Luck! away. and
