Immersed in the tranquility of nature, just a few steps from the splendid Gallipoli coast, Tenuta Santa Rosa presents itself as an ideal refuge for those seeking serenity and authenticity. Located 4 km from Gallipoli, this historic structure, once a church dating back to the 17th century, was skillfully renovated in 2005 to welcome guests in a warm and family atmosphere, while preserving its original charm.
The rooms are designed to offer a comfortable stay: two double rooms and a family room, for a total of nine beds, allow for hosting families or groups of friends in an intimate and cozy context. Breakfast, prepared with love and dedication, is served in the bright main room, characterized by a suggestive star vault. Every morning, guests can enjoy homemade sweets, cakes, jams, and fresh products, abundantly complemented by the fruits of the estate itself. For those desiring a savory breakfast, an option is available upon request.
The family that manages the estate, deeply connected to this place, helps make every stay unique and special. Grandfather Domenico, the wise guardian of tradition, passionately and creatively leads daily activities, enthusiastically managing the vast garden and cultivating plants. Grandmother Paola, the beating heart of Tenuta, delights guests with her homemade breakfasts and affectionate conversations, while Alessandra, the versatile "Brico Woman," takes care of the restorations and crafts that adorn the environment. Tiziana, a graduate in Environmental Economics, is dedicated to preserving and enhancing the estate's natural heritage, supported by the expertise of Gabriele, a long-time farmer. Finally, the lively spirit of Siria, the youngest in the family, adds a note of joy and freshness to the atmosphere.
Surrounded by 5 hectares of fertile land, Tenuta Santa Rosa is an example of sustainable agriculture, where seasonal vegetables and legumes are grown, and excellent extra virgin olive oil is produced. The proximity to Chiesanuova, a fraction of Sannicola, offers convenience and access to essential services such as bars and small shops. The coast with its wonderful beaches is easily reachable, with Rivabella and Lido Conchiglie just five minutes away, while Baia Verde is ten minutes distant.
A stay at Tenuta Santa Rosa is not only a break from the hectic pace of daily life but also an opportunity to connect with the beauty and culture of Salento, in an environment where every element tells a story of passion and tradition.
