Hotel Villa Rodogallo (Sannicola, Italy)

About Villa Rodogallo

The Bed & Breakfast Villa Rodogallo, whose name recalls the ancient settlement that originated the Sannicola village, is a 18th century majestic building located at the end of a long aged pine tree path. Just 7 km away from Gallipoli, the Villa stands in the Santese family estate with vineyards, olive and orange trees. The guests are welcomed in a large square with volcanic stone floor and surrounded by 4 neo-classical columns topped with large vases. The four columns probably replaced the only one that used to show the entrance to the Laura Basiliana of Santa Maria de Atoca, mentioned in the San Mauro Abbey parchment n. 7 of august 1191, or in Santa Maria de Ligero, located North-East of Alezio. The Villa still preserves the charm of the XVII century noble houses, where eminent guests used to arrive from the three alleys by harnessed carriages and coachmen in livery. Delicious food and firstlings from the Otranto land were offered to the guests. Our guests can experience, all year long, a holiday made of history, fairy tales, special atmosphere, old times.
