Description

Welcome to Vecchio Torrino, an ancient location nestled in the marvelous countryside of Salento that will be the backdrop for your unforgettable memories. Our establishment represents an old Salento farmhouse where farmers and animals once worked in the production of cheese, oil, and other local products. The Torrino, a tower that housed a water reservoir for irrigation and water supply for the neighborhood, has been restored, preserving every part to maintain its history and beauty. Our rooms offer comfortable spaces that ensure all the comforts during your stay. Each room is meticulously cared for with attention and dedication, making them unique.

We spent 5 nights at this paradisiacal place. Damiano Maurizo and Rosaria do everything to make you feel at home. We enjoyed Rosaria's cooking skills. The room is spacious, clean and equipped with all comforts. In short, a wonderful base to discover Puglia. Eric and Karelien.

We were so delighted with our stay in Puglia, first of all for the beauty of the places and then for the people we met there who welcomed us so well. My only regret is not being able to speak the language fluently, because we do not use it enough, but I think we managed to understand each other and that is the most important. Maurizio and his wife are exceptional hosts, as is the magnificent place where we will not hesitate to return.

Our vacation was wonderful. We felt welcomed and pampered, immersed in nature, in an environment carefully designed in detail but respectful of traditions, which makes it simple. Maurizio was always present as well as his daughter Sefora and Rosaria, the soul of Il Vecchio Torrino, along with Bella Topolino and Sharma. We savored peace, traditions, and flavors. With great nostalgia, we said goodbye, but we are certain that we will see each other again soon to share many laughs together, perhaps in front of that wonderful rosé that reminds us so much of the September sunsets at Il Vecchio Torrino.

The Old Tower is a beautiful structure immersed in nature, ideal for those who want to disconnect from the hectic everyday life. Maurizio and his family were kind, professional, and attentive to satisfy all our needs. It was a fantastic 3 days. Thank you! We will definitely come back!

We were guests at the warmly run accommodation for 7 days. The owners take time for the guests. The young cats, the dog Bella, and the horse made the stay a special experience. We liked it very much.

Super well-kept and very authentic property with lovely details. You can have fun with the animals, but it's not necessary and they are not intrusive. Hosts are courteous, uncomplicated, and flexible. If you want to be cooked for lunch or dinner, you can do so at your leisure. It's best to discuss your preferences in advance. For breakfast, there are usually self-baked local delicacies. We consciously chose the countryside location to avoid the trouble of cities or tourist centers. And yet, in half an hour, you can reach a variety of dreamy beaches. Therefore, everything was perfect for us!

Il Vecchio Torrino is a paradise in the nature of Salento, managed by Maurizio and Rosaria with so much love and dedication to the customer. The owners have the ability to make you always feel at home, offering spaces and time. The structure has well-kept rooms and relaxation areas for socializing with other guests. Also, the pool is a great alternative to the chaotic and often tiring seaside life. In conclusion, it's up to you how to experience it. A perfect starting point to explore the beauties of Salento and enjoy the typical local cuisine. That's why we left with tears in our eyes, but with the fantastic memory of the beautiful days spent at the Masseria. Super grilled dinners in the garden organized by the family. It's essential to come back home with good memories, but it's even more important to have met beautiful people, kind, helpful, and true workers. We will be back, Thank you Puglia.

The structure is very well maintained in the middle of the peace of the Leccare countryside. The two owners are splendid.

Beautiful property immersed in greenery, spacious and spotlessly clean room. The managers are kind and very helpful. The highlight of breakfast is undoubtedly the cake prepared every day by Mrs. Rosaria. I highly recommend stopping for dinner with them.
