This is a special place. Not manicured for the latest tourist whims. An authentic country house simply renovated, sat in a naturally sheltered compound of pines. The owners Susanne and Jacomo are lively, welcoming, knowledgeable and relaxed. Many great conversations were had over breakfast. The rooms are tidy, tastefully decorated with plenty of space and well-equipped ensure bathrooms. The welcome you receive extendsto their 2 pet dogs who keep a beady eye on the place and accompany you as you stroll to the breakfast table or swimming pool. Worth noting as you're approx 6-7km outside Lecce a car is preferable. The bus service is reigned back after September. The nearest bus stop is at the local University Engineering building, but services stop around 8pm. So a night out in Lecce requires booking a cab in advance for the return trip.

Lecce was our last stop on vacation, and we enjoyed the most. The place is near the city, very calm,quiet and peaceful. Every corner of the house is done with style. The swimming pool is on perfect spot for enjoying the day before having delicious breakfast. The dogs are very friendly and the hosts are the super couple who love life and what they are doing. Our honest recommendations for Petra House.

If you are considering visiting Lecce, this should be your first choice of venue. The property is a slice of heaven. Its gorgeous, has everything you could need and more, with only a 12 min drive to the city centre. The hosts also went out of their way to make us feel welcome and ensured we had everything we could want. The breakfast was outstanding. We simply can't wait to return. Perfect!

We were three couples visiting Puglia for a week and this evaluation is valid for all of us. Petra Country House is a splendid old villa situated a few miles to Lecce, in the middle of a large, forest-like garden, run by a most charming young couple, Susanna and Jacobo. İt is very conveniently located for day excursions in the region. The rooms are large, high ceilinged, very confortable, clean and tastefully decorated. The breakfast, served most of the times in the garden is fabulous and the coffee real good!...Susanna and Jacobo are very pleasent hosts. They are very helpful in giving advise about places to visit and to eat, even making reservations when necessary. They have two friendly dogs. the playful Golden Retriever Semola and the ittle shy Lenticchio that adds to the charm of the place. All and all a most recommended place to stay and enjoy in Puglia.

Hosts! Hospitality in this place was awesome. You have a chance to know better history and problems od Salento. And You get long list of great recomendations from Susanna and Jacobo. Design of rooms is very clever. We was in Roman room. Other rooms link to other parts of Salento history. Place is connected well with mainly Salentos attractions.

The breakfast is best that we had in whole Italy! Ask for Jacopos omelette! amazing! This is truly a gem and you can feel that Zuzi and Jacopo put their souls in the place. And Semola the golden retriever just was the cherry on top <3

We have put in a 9 instead of a 10 so you know that this is not a fake review. The couple who runs this facility of 4 appartements started only 1 year ago. We think this accommodation is a small paradise. The location was beautiful, breakfast was excellent. The personal touch made every breakfast a social happening.
