Nestled in the sleepy Apuglian village of Salento, this charming four-bedroom villa is a true Italian escape. Its muted textured walls and understated decor mirror the slow (yet lively) pace of life on the streets just outside.

 

 

The noble palazzotto has been lovingly restored by Studio Andrew Trotter and Marcelo Martínez. They took time to carefully preserve the house’s historic features while providing just the right balance of twenty-first-century updates. Having kept most of the original floors, the nonna’s kitchen, and the internal doors (two being 300 years old), Casa Soleto has all the charm and character you would expect of a house from the seventeenth century.

Soleto is a sleepy (but also very lively) village in the heart of Salento. Here in the south it feels like you stepped into a movie, with the kids playing in the streets, the old men debating on benches, and the grandmas making pasta in the streets. The town has great coffee and pasticciotti (small cream filled cakes), vegetable shops with local produce, a very well equipped supermarket only 2 minutes from the house and a few restaurants that open in the evenings.
