FARM HOLIDAYS IN THE COUNTRY BETWEEN THE TWO SEAS
Organic farm
The “Masseria Sant'Angelo” lies in an ancient olive grove at Corigliano d'Otranto, a lively village in the heart of the “Grecia Salentina”, a historically very interesting part of the province of Lecce in Puglia.
What you can expect at Masseria Sant'Angelo: Holidays at an active organic farm in comfortable and cosy apartments and rooms with private verandas for 2 – 4 persons. One room is ideal for handicapped persons, too.
Vegetables, olive oil, “ricotta” (soft cheese), cheese, jam, wine, liqueurs, tomato sauce, olives – all from organic farming
Taste the traditional and healthy “cucina salentina” combined with some of our own recipes . Enjoy your dinner listening to our live ethnic music “Pizzica” and feel you'd like to move!
Horses,donkeys,goats,hens,cats,dogs and a duck will make sure you'll have a real farm holiday.
Places to visit and distances:
The historic centre of Corigliano and its castle can be reached in 15 minutes by feet. Here you will find bars, restaurants, supermarkets and shops. In the evenings the old and the young meet to chat, walk around and have a drink in one of the bars “in piazza”. Don't miss the old villages of the “Grecìa Salentina”, churches, guardian towers, dolmen, menhir, hermit-byzantine crypts and underground oil mills. In Corigliano you can still hear the greek dialect “Griko”.
The nearest beach, maybe one of the most beautiful in Italy, is only 16 km away.
Come and see the fantastic coast between Otranto and St. Maria di Leuca.
You don't necessarily need a car to pass a relaxing holiday here. Corigliano has a train station connected to Otranto, Gallipoli, Lecce and Leuca. In summer there are busses going to the beaches. Should you wish to rent a car once you stay here you can do that even here in Corigliano.
The restaurants located in the "Borgo Antico" (closed for traffic in summer) invite to taste their traditional "cucina salentina" and their wines, surrounded by ancient walls.
SALENTO BY BIKE
This region is ideal for being explored by bike. You can use our bikes (no luxury models though) for little excursions or rent one should you prefer to have your "private" bicycle.
All lodgings are in recently restaured stables built with the local natural stone. The furniture is in farmhouse style and all apartments and rooms are comfortable and have a veranda with garden furniture and loungers.
Pets can pass their holidays here too, if they accept our own dogs and the other animals of the farm.
