Property Summary
Nestled in the sun-drenched Apulian countryside just a short walk from the charming town of Grottaglie, in the heart of southern Italy, this magnificent historic villa offers an exceptional vacation rental experience steeped in elegance and natural beauty. Built in the distinctive Art Nouveau style and constructed from pale Apulian stone, the property exudes timeless architectural character that seamlessly blends with its lush Mediterranean surroundings. The villa is spread across 2 floors and encompasses 3 independent ground-floor apartments alongside a first-floor residence occupied by the owner, who has no access to the outdoor areas reserved exclusively for guests. Spanning one full hectare of fenced, meticulously maintained grounds, the estate offers generous outdoor spaces that invite relaxation and exploration in equal measure.

Outdoors
The outdoor spaces of this villa are undoubtedly among its most captivating features, offering guests an expansive and immaculately tended Mediterranean park that stretches across one full hectare of fenced terrain. The grounds are adorned with sweeping lawns, towering palm trees, a fragrant citrus grove, and an extraordinary variety of Mediterranean flora including jasmine, climbing wisteria, iris, and ivy geraniums. Please note that the property photographs were taken in spring, and therefore the blossoming of flowers and the colour of the garden grass may differ from what you encounter upon arrival, depending on the season of your visit.
At the heart of the outdoor area lies the swimming pool, which is non-heated and reserved exclusively for the use of guests. Positioned to the east of the villa and reached via a few elegant stone steps, the pool measures 12 x 6 metres with a depth ranging from 1.50 to 1.80 metres.

The pool is accessible to guests from the last Saturday in April to the first Saturday in October.
A large pergola draped in climbing wisteria provides a beautifully shaded outdoor corridor connecting the apartments, offering a romantic and characterful walkway through the estate. The park as a whole is fenced and carefully maintained, ensuring both privacy and security throughout your stay.
Unit Layout
The villa accommodates a maximum of 10 guests across 4 independent apartments, 3 of which are located on the ground floor and 1 on the first floor, the latter being the private residence of the owner and not available to guests.

Together they offer 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms distributed across the distinct living spaces described below.
The first and largest apartment is situated near the grand wisteria-draped pergola and opens into a spacious lounge area furnished with sofas and numerous seats overlooking the pool. This flows into a living room featuring a circular double sofa bed, which in turn connects to a generous dining room seating 8 people, complete with a fully equipped adjoining kitchen. The sleeping area comprises a double bedroom and a twin bedroom, both served by a shared bathroom fitted with both a shower and a bathtub.
The second apartment, more intimate in scale yet equally welcoming, is designed for 2 guests and is accessed via a small stone patio reached by a few steps. It features a kitchen that communicates directly with a combined dining and sitting room. The sleeping area consists of a large double bedroom with its own sitting area, and the apartment is served by a bathroom with shower.

This guarantee includes EuropAssistance coverage in the event of accidental damage to the property during the stay, up to a maximum of 1,500.00 euros and subject to the limitations set out in the policy terms.
The first-floor apartment is the private residence of the owner, who will not make use of the park or swimming pool during guests' stays, as these areas are reserved exclusively for the use of guests at all times.

The outdoor spaces of Tenuta Scialandre are a true celebration of the Salento landscape, extending across a vast yard of approximately 18,000 square metres that unfolds in a series of terraces shaped by the natural slope of the terrain. The various areas are elegantly defined by characteristic low walls in local stone, which also trace the many pathways winding through the estate. The upper portion of the grounds is distinctly Mediterranean in character, alternating between rocky terrain and native plants, while the areas surrounding the housing units are softened by palms, tall trees, flowering hedges, and stretches of lawn adjacent to the solarium area. To the left of the units, a beautiful and comfortable portico with sea view has been furnished with a table and chairs for outdoor dining and features a built-in barbecue, making it an ideal setting for alfresco meals in the warm Salento evenings. The solarium area is equipped with sunbeds and a shower, offering a comfortable and easily accessible space for relaxation beside the pool. Please note that photographs of the property were taken in spring, and therefore the flowering and the colour of the garden grass may differ from what you observe upon arrival.
