2 Bedroom Apartment in Lecce Historic Center, Lecce

General Description
Our two-bedroom apartment in the sixteenth century Palazzo Spada is situated in the very heart of the historical centre of Lecce, renowned as ‘The Florence of the South’ for its beautiful Baroque architecture. It overlooks Piazza Duomo and other key sights such as Basilica Santa Croce, Piazza Sant’Oronzo and the Amphitheatre are just a few minutes’ walk away, while the railway station is 10 minutes on foot. The apartment is situated on the second floor which affords it wonderful views of the Duomo and the old town at large. However, as there is no lift, please note it is not appropriate for guests with mobility issues (there are 62 steps).
The apartment, which has been in our family for generations, is very light, airy and peaceful and tastefully furnished with both antique pieces and custom-built items. There is a stunning view of the Piazza Duomo from the large living room, which in addition to its comfortable lounge furniture, also contains a characteristic ‘Pietra Leccese’ fireplace.
The apartment can comfortably sleep up to 5 guests. There is a king-size double-bed in the main bedroom with ensuite bathroom and a large fitted wardrobe. In the other bedroom, there is a bed (which can be easily converted into a double) and a large chest of drawers. Guests staying in this room may use the second bathroom (on the raised level next to the fitted and fully furnished kitchen) and the large, fitted wardrobe/ cupboard in the hall. The day-bed in the living room can also be used as a fifth (single) bed for guests who are not too tall (bed-length 1’80 x 90cms width). Both of the bedrooms and the living room have air-conditioning. In addition, the windows in all the rooms are soundproof, allowing the guests to stay in a quiet home while being in the very heart of the historical centre.
The French doors of the kitchen extension open-out onto a large terrace (with bamboo awning, a large table and deck-chairs) where guests may enjoy relaxing and dining al-fresco while enjoying the beautiful roof-top view.

Summary: Wow the property was amazing location is perfect. The terrace is the icing on the cake. I cannot believe we were able to stay in such a stunning property. On the terrace on Saturday morning we could hear the accordion player from the square it was beautiful. The terrace is so private and not overlooked we spent lovely afternoons relaxing with a bottle and snacks. I believe someone had commented on it looking tired. Sorry but I do not understand that comment at all. This home has so much character the decor inside is beautiful and fits perfectly with the surroundings. The apartment was spotless and there was everything you could need for a wonderful stay. Plenty of information on Lecce and beaches in the vicinity take note of the comments on wind direction. Lecce itself was the perfect town so many great places to eat and gorgeous shops and buildings to explore. At the top of our list of favourite places in Italy. Streets are so quiet in the morning I even went for a jog it was so peaceful. We will definitely be back and would happily recommend to friends and family. We slept so well in the master bedroom such a lovely big comfortable bed. Can't wait to return.
