Il Tomaro rises on a hill above the sun-hazy seas of Puglia’s southern tip. From first glance, it seems as if it’s always been part of the landscape, as indigenous (and as irresistible) as the delicious local variety of tomato the farm used to produce. Meticulously restored using traditional materials and techniques, it has been given a new lease of life as a bewitching retreat for those in search of harmony, character, style and comfort.

The Area
Il Tomaro sits in a panoramic position above the southern tip of Salento, just a few minutes' drive away from the glorious, seemingly endless, sandy beaches of Pescoluse and Torre Pali. A little further up the coast (25mins) is the idyllic beach of Riva di Ugento, so sea lovers are well and truly spoilt for choice.
Just inland from Il Tomaro are the quiet and attractive little towns of Morciano di Leuca, Salve, Alessano and Castrignano del Capo, all of which offer plenty in terms of shopping, restaurants, cafés and bars.
Just 9km southeast, meanwhile, is the charming Liberty-style resort town of Santa Maria di Leuca, which offers a great selection of restaurants and bars and an internationally famous yachting marina.
Slightly further afield, but still easily driveable in between 30 minutes and 1 hour are the fortified island town of Gallipoli, the delightful east-facing town of Otranto and the exquisite baroque town of Lecce.
