Casa Soleto is an enchanting palazzo tucked away in the centre of the charming village of Soleto in Salento. The noble palazzo was carefully renovated by Studio Andrew Trotter and Marcelo Martínez, preserving the house's historic features while adding the comforts of today.

Between historic walls, vaulted ceilings, and original floors, you will be surprised with modern works of art, contemporary design pieces and beautifully restored vintage furniture. The decor of light, neutral, and serene green colors is refined and elegant with the use of natural materials, delicate linen fabrics and curtains, and rugs from Armadillo Co. This is a place that will delight and appreciate any lover of design and history for its splendor and authenticity. The fusion of old and new is truly perfect in every room!

On the ground floor is the living room with access to the majestic dining room with fireplace and the fully renovated kitchen of the 'nonna' with access to the courtyard where you can enjoy breakfast or dinner at the dining table. The old chapel of the house has been transformed into a magnificent lounge area in earthy tones with two single beds that act as a spacious sofa, when not in use. Through the green tea room, you enter the private garden where you have the feeling that you are away from it all. Read a book in the relaxation zone or enjoy a cooling dip in the plunge pool. Via the outside staircase, you reach the three spacious double bedrooms - for a total of 7 people - with private bathrooms, one of which has a restored claw-foot bathtub from ancient times.

Outside this oasis lies the historic center of Soleto with its authentic atmosphere. Start your day with breakfast in the local bar with perfect Italian coffee and then go on an adventure in the baroque cities of Galatina, Lecce, or the spa town of Santa Cesarea Terme. And for a day of sunshine, you can reach both coasts with gorgeous beaches and unspoiled bays in just 25 minutes.

Facilities

Elegant villa for 9 persons with private terrace in Puglia

Layout Casa Soleto | 7-9 people | 250m2

Ground floor

  • A wooden gate provides access to the courtyard of Casa Soleto.
  • From that courtyard, you enter the living room with a large sofa and a passage to the dining room with a fully restored round dining table and fireplace. Here you will also find a separate toilet.
  • On the other side of the living room is a fully equipped kitchen with everything you need to cook together. The kitchen has an ILVE gas stove, oven, fridge/freezer, dishwasher, Nespresso machine, beautiful cooking utensils, and handmade crockery. There is a small dining table and the kitchen has direct access to the courtyard through patio doors.
  • Behind the kitchen is the media/lounge area - what was once the old chapel - with two single beds (measuring 90x200cm) to accommodate two additional guests. When the beds are not in use, it acts as a large (4m) and comfortable sofa. This room has a private toilet and access to a small patio with an outdoor shower and a laundry room with a washing machine and dryer.
  • Finally, connected to the living room is the garden room (‘tea room’) with a 3-meter sofa, the perfect place to relax and read a book. This room gives access to the private garden

Upper floor

  • The upper floor with the bedrooms can only be reached via the outside staircase in the courtyard. The bedrooms are connected from the inside.
  • On the right side of the stairwell, you enter a landing, which leads to the first bedroom with a double bed (180x200cm) with a view of the street and the church, a private bathroom equipped with a walk-in shower, and a built-in wardrobe.
  • On the other side of the landing is the large master bedroom with a double bed (180x200cm), a small roof terrace overlooking the garden, and a large bathroom with an old cast iron roll-top bath (with shower in the bath)
  • To the left of the stairs - and accessible from the bathroom of the master bedroom - you enter another large bedroom, with a double bed (180x200cm). This room has a small living room with a single bed (90x200cm), perfect for a child. In the back is a large tiled bathroom with a walk-in shower.

  • Small roof terrace (accessible from the master bedroom upstairs)

Extra information:

  • Casa Soleto is an architectural masterpiece that has been lovingly restored, preserving elements that are several hundred years old, but which are not perfect. The imperfection of these old elements makes this house unique and contributes to the historic and charming ambiance that you will experience here.

  • All beds are equipped with a Dorelan mattress and beautiful linen, the bathrooms are equipped with care products from Frama
