Welcome to Villa Rosa, situated in Casalabate, Puglia and just five minutes walk from the Adriatic coast. Villa Rosa is 30 minutes from the Port of Brindisi, 15 minutes drive from the historic town of Lecce (the Florence of the South) and within easy reach of places like Alberobello, Otranto and Gallipoli. This tranquil villa provides a peaceful haven for the perfect holiday all the year round.
Villa Rosa is a two bedroom (sleeping 4 - 6), detached villetta, standing in it's own walled, private gardens and surrounded by mature trees. Completely refurbished and fully equipped, with the added benefit of air-conditioning, Villa Rosa is the perfect place to relax at any time of the year.
Whether you want to relax by the swimming pool, explore the Port of Brindisi, the historic towns of Lecce and Otranto, visit "Trulli Country" or simply enjoy La Dolce Vita the way the Italians do, Villa Rosa is the place for you.
The private swimming pool (10m x 5m), with solar cover to warm the water, can be found situated in the rear gardens, surrounded by sun drenched patios. At the end of the courtyard there is are walled flower beds abundent with bourganvilla and other flowering shrubs. The lemon tree will provide freshly picked lemons for your G&T or freshly made lemonade for the children! At our home we are active gardeners and fresh produce and herbs are available, subject to what's in season!
Should you tire of the sunshine, wander by the house to the front gardens where a number of trees (including more lemons, tangerine, olive and pine trees!) provide a shady retreat. The patio here provides a perfect cool and shady setting to relax and enjoy lunch. The front gardens have been laid to lawn and extensively planted with flowering shrubs.
If you are a winter visitor, the wood burning fire place makes the kitchen /
living room warm and welcoming. After a day exploring the delights of Puglia, imagine curling up in front of a log fire and relaxing.
