Masseria San Nicola dei Bacile di Castiglione

Welcome to Villa San Nicola, a charming residence nestled amid the greenery of the Salento pine forest, housed in a historic 16th-century convent, where history and nature blend to create an atmosphere of tranquility and authenticity.
The holiday home, with its distinctive star-vaulted ceilings made of Lecce stone, offers cool and welcoming spaces even on the hottest days. It consists of a spacious double bedroom with a private bathroom and shower, a living room with two single beds, and the option to add a third bed in the double bedroom upon request, to accommodate the needs of families or small groups.
The open-concept kitchen is equipped with an induction cooktop and everything you need to prepare meals independently. Hot water is heated by a solar panel, in keeping with our commitment to the environment.
Outside, a spacious patio awaits you, ideal for dining al fresco in total tranquility, surrounded by a private 6,000 m² pine forest. You can relax in the hammock or on the swing, breathing in the fresh air and enjoying the peace and quiet of the surroundings. Outdoor shower with hot and cold water.
The house features air conditioning in the master bedroom and a fan in the living area, but thanks to the thick walls and star-vaulted ceiling, the interior remains naturally cool.
Parking is available on the property, secure and surrounded by greenery. For added security and peace of mind, we recommend closing the gate in the evening.
The location is perfect for exploring the Salento region: the stunning Bay of Castro Marina is just one kilometre away, Otranto is about 15 km away, and Santa Maria di Leuca is 20 km away. The beaches, historic villages, and crystal-clear sea are all within easy reach.
