This is a stunning property combining excellent accommodations; a convenient location; an inspiring and relaxing garden and most important; an engaged, hospitable and helpful owner. The two bedrooms have large, comfortable beds and there are two well-appointed bathrooms. The whole house exudes historic charm with high ceilings and beautiful furnishings. The kitchen is large and has a dining table should weather warrant indoor eating. However, the garden, with its comfortable nooks, sunny pool and numerous fruit trees and other plantings is a spot that just begs guests to spend as much outdoor time as possible. Nearby Lecce can keep a tourist well-entertained for several days and fed for many more. It is also a good base for exploring the Salento, Val d'Itria and the Adriatic and Ionian coasts. Surbo is a short drive to Lecce. The neighborhood near the villa is not scenic but hosts a good variety of shops and casual dining. Nearby are several "masseria", and other historic sites worth visiting. We shall always fondly remember this visit and highly recommend Villa della Zagere to anyone seeking a memorable visit to the area.
