Among the olive trees and clear waters of the Ionian Coast, in Torre San Giovanni, stands Villa Picalo, a splendid residence that combines modern architecture and the traditional forms of the typical Salento pajara, a dry stone construction. The perfect place to experience unique and unforgettable days for those who love the quiet and tranquillity of the countryside, but do not wish to forgo a refined environment. The area surrounding the villa is full of charm: once past the imposing entrance gate, a long driveway flanked by Lecce stone columns leads to the central body of the villa, a residence of about 150 sq m overlooking the magnificent expanse of olive groves and completed by a splendid renovated trullo, the traditional dry stone hut with conical roof, and an adjoining annex, complete with kitchen and sitting room. The elegant, fully-equipped infinity pool for the exclusive use of guests enhances the outdoor spaces rich in Mediterranean vegetation. The barbecue in local stone is perfect for organising open-air meals, immersed in the magic of the olive groves. Villa Picalo, just a few minutes by car from the tropical-coloured waters of the coast, stands in a strategic position within easy reach of the main artistic, architectural and natural beauties of the Apulian region.
