What an elegant home Susanna has! Beautifully decorated, comfortable furniture, terraces to die for! Although parking nearby is difficult, there is fairly cheap parking at the end of via Lata in front of the bank of Siena - a very short walk away.
Nardo is a beautiful town! Piazza Salandra was wonderful - the churches, the cute pastry & coffee shop, and the old men who sit out every afternoon to socialize. We felt like we were in a movie.
It was very easy to visit Lecce, Santa Maria al Bagno, Gallipoli, etc. Galantina was my favorite though, with the cathedral full of frescoes. Otranto's cathedral floor is completely done in mosaics & worth a longer drive.
We would highly recommend Susanna's beautiful home & the lovely Nardo to anyone.
