GALLERY
A collection of images showcasing the house, garden, interiors and surrounding landscapes, designed to capture the true spirit of this corner of Salento, in Puglia. More than just aesthetics, it’s about conveying an authentic atmosphere.
The details
Every corner of the house is designed to welcome without overwhelming. The original majolica tiles in each room tell the story of a land where color is always measured, yet never absent. Each room features a unique floor—imperfect geometries, delicate lines, and glazes worn by time.
Cutrofiano ceramics, thoughtfully placed throughout, add warmth and a sense of heritage. These pieces don’t follow fleeting trends; they speak of the land they come from.
Windows frame slices of sky, while the furnishings never dominate the space but gently accompany it. Everything is designed to let life breathe: light, air, and people.
The Surrounding Area
Cutrofiano is nestled in the heart of Salento, ideally located for those who wish to explore the region without sacrificing tranquility.
In just over twenty minutes, you can reach the shores of Gallipoli, Porto Cesareo, and Santa Maria al Bagno on the Ionian Sea, or Otranto, Castro, and Santa Cesarea Terme along the Adriatic coast.
Yet, before the sea, there is the inland: a rich mosaic of authentic villages, centuries-old olive groves, stone quarries, traditional festivals, and craftsmanship. Cutrofiano is one of Salento’s historic ceramic centers, and its workshops still preserve this timeless art.
Nearby are Galatina, famed for its frescoes and the original pasticciotto pastry; Corigliano d’Otranto, with its baroque castle; Specchia; Nardò; and, of course, Lecce, just half an hour away by car.
Palazzo Vittoria is both a starting point and a place to return to — the perfect setting for those who love to travel slowly, savoring what truly matters.
