Home description
Delightful two bedroom villa with private 10m x 5 mswimming pool and close to the beach. Completely renovated in 2008, equipped to a high standard, benefiting from air-conditioning. An ideal location for a relaxing break, poolside, on the beach or to tour Puglia/Salento.
Villa Nicola is located in a quiet location in Lendinuso, a typical Puglian holiday village, Italians tend to take their holidays in July and August although we have noticed that the season seems to be extending to run from June to September. Outside these months it can be relatively quiet.
The swimming pool is 10 metres by 5 metres, 1.2 metres at the shallow end and 1.8 metres at the deep end.
Villa Nicola is within 5 minutes walking distance from small sandy uncommercialised beaches. There are more small beaches as you travel north and south from Lendinuso. Campo di Mare, Bar Benny Lidom Sun Beach and Exotic beach have beach bars / restaurant sand sun loungers etc available for hire during the season. Campo di Mare has 5 sheltered protected bays with shallow waters and sandy beaches, ideal for small children. Torre Chianca is approximately 15 minutes drive south from Lendinuso and has a very nice beach, very popular with Italian holiday makers.

Further north (about an hours drive) you will find Fasano Zoo Safari and Alberobello, home of the Trulli, Castel del Monte and Castellana Grotto. Head south for the port of Otranto, Santa Maria di Leuca on the tip of the boot where the Adriatic meets the Ionian. South west for Gallipoli and and many other beautiful towns/cities and beaches. There is no shortage of things to do and see, or you could simply relax by the pool or on the beach!
