In the most authentic heart of Tricase, in an ancient and particularly peaceful area, La Vecchia Corte welcomes its guests in a historic courtyard building, skillfully restored from an 18th-century edifice. This renovation has meticulously preserved the original architecture and typical materials of Greece Salentina, highlighting the exposed local stone and restoring the charm of a home with a refined and timeless character.
The location is especially advantageous for those looking to explore the most picturesque parts of Salento. The property is just 4 km from the sea and is well connected to major road and rail junctions, making it a convenient starting point to reach some of the most beautiful spots in Capo di Leuca, such as Castro, Santa Maria di Leuca, and Santa Cesarea Terme. By following the Adriatic and Ionian coastlines, it is also easy to reach Otranto and Gallipoli, offering journeys filled with breathtaking views, vibrant colors, and unforgettable atmospheres.
The common areas retain the warmth and elegance of tradition. The spacious internal courtyard serves as the heart of the property, a cozy and enchanting space where guests can enjoy moments of tranquility and breathe in an atmosphere of bygone times. Breakfast, served buffet-style, is offered in a large hall adorned with an ancient fireplace or, during pleasant weather, in the courtyard, where the scents and flavors of typical Salentine products delightfully welcome the start of the day.
The five rooms, each unique, feature beautiful star or barrel vaulted ceilings made of exposed stone and furnishings inspired by local art and craftsmanship. Each space tells a story of Salentine tradition, incorporating wood, Lecce stone, wrought iron, weaving, and ceramics, with curtains and linens enhanced by local embroidery and lace. Every room has a private bathroom designed in harmony with the room's style and overlooks the internal courtyard, providing an intimate and relaxing atmosphere.
