Casa Riad Impluvium is the ideal starting point to explore the wonders of Salento and reach Otranto, with its enchanting beaches, in a few minutes by car. Its location in the heart of Giurdignano allows you to immerse yourself in the living fabric of the town. Restaurants, shops and stores are within easy reach, to savor the local cuisine and experience the local culture. The inner courtyard, with its swimming pool and majestic palm tree, as well as the sauna, are perfect for relaxing and regenerating. The space Immersed in the quiet of Giurdignano, a few kilometers from the enchanting beaches of Otranto, Casa Riad Impluvium is a charming residence, a bit in the style of an impregnable Riad, surrounded by high walls, with its beautiful Arabesque internal courtyards. The place is charming, time passes to the ringing of the bells of the nearby Church, and you can enjoy the fresh scent of summer evenings outdoors. The beating heart of the house is the inner courtyard, an oasis of peace and conviviality. Here, a majestic palm tree stands in the center, watching over the pool that invites you to take a refreshing dip on hot summer days. The courtyard is the ideal place to relax, read a book or enjoy an aperitif at sunset. Casa Riad Impluvium consists of two distinct but complementary buildings that develop around the internal courtyard with a swimming pool. The main building, dating back to the 18th century, retains the charm of the era, with its vaulted rooms and original white plaster. The Casina, built in 2003, incorporates the essential lines and Mediterranean warmth of the building, offering bright and welcoming spaces. Both the main building and the Casina are spread across two floors. The main building on the ground floor includes a large kitchen with a fireplace that comfortably overlooks the internal courtyard, a double bedroom with stone beds, a bathroom/shower, a dining room and a beautiful living room with a fireplace and masonry sofas composed of two rooms, one with a barrel vault and the other with a star vault. A stone staircase leads to the first floor consisting of 3 bedrooms, including a double suite with an en-suite bathroom/shower and an exclusive living room, a double bedroom and a single bedroom that share a bathroom/shower and a beautiful panoramic terrace equipped with garden furniture, a hammock and a pergola overlooking the internal courtyard. The Casina offers on the ground floor a large living room with a very bright open kitchen that overlooks through two large arches the internal courtyard with swimming pool, a double bedroom and a bathroom/shower. On the first floor, which is accessed exclusively via an external staircase (there is no internal connection), there are two communicating bedrooms, one double and the other double, which share a bathroom/shower and a small terrace overlooking the village of Giurdignano. To complete the structure, in the basement, accessible from the courtyard, a comfortable spa with a whirlpool tub, sauna and toilet, for moments of pure well-being. Casa Riad Impluvium is a home that reflects the personality of its owners: essential, authentic and full of charm. The choice to preserve the ancient soul of the place, without giving in to aesthetic compromises or the search for superfluous comforts, makes it an ideal destination for those who want to live an authentic experience, far from the common places. Giurdignano is a town of 1700 inhabitants located in the center of endless olive groves and just 6 km from Otranto. It is famous for the presence of megalithic monuments, dolmens and menhirs, the archaeological site called "La Centoporte", crypts, and two hypogeal tombs from the Neolithic period (2nd millennium BC).
