Welcome to Corte Mercurio: where time stands still and the magic of Salento comes to life.
Once upon a time, in the heart of the historic center of Ugento, there was an ancient peasant's house, consisting of a pretty house and an adjacent agricultural warehouse. Here, time passed slowly, marked by the scent of freshly harvested wheat and the simple rhythms of rural life. On these walls the "monicheddhre" were bred, the typical Salento snails, a symbol of an authentic past that has left an indelible imprint.
Today, this place full of history and tradition lives again under the name of Corte Mercurio, recently recovered and renovated to make it an accommodation facility with a unique charm. Every corner has been recovered and enhanced, enhancing its origins to offer guests a haven of peace, beauty and elegance in every season of the year.
