Exploring the local Area
The fabulous baroque city of Lecce, known as the Florence of the South, lies 25 minutes to the North and the lovely old port of Otranto, a UNESCO world heritage site, 15 minutes to the South. The long sandy beaches and clear waters of the Adriatic coast can be reached within 10 minutes and those of the Ionian coast are also easily accessible.
Puglia is a food lovers paradise and La Spinetta is the perfect place to explore the area’s gastronomy. Wine and food tours can be arranged whilst local restaurants serve up unpretentious but delicious fresh local produce. Guests can help themselves from the masseria’s own kitchen garden and fruit trees and the small shops in nearby towns and villages make food shopping a pleasure.
