Interior:
The main unit is an Art Nouveau-style villa dating back to the early 1700s, renovated and extended in 1918 by an Austrian architect. The villa preserves friezes, mosaics, decorations, columns and capitals in Lecce stone, giving it an elegant and timeless character. The main building is arranged over three floors. GROUND FLOOR – From a large hall with fountain, served by a cloakroom, you enter the Glicine lounge, spacious and bright thanks to the balconies overlooking the swimming pool, where there is also a guest bathroom. From here, you continue to the Pesci lounge, which leads to the majestic winter garden with Art Nouveau glass windows. The Fiori lounge houses the dining room, enhanced by an impressive Lecce-stone fireplace. A hallway leads to the large professional kitchen, the small service kitchen and a storage room. On the same floor there are two large double suites, one of which has a private sitting area, both with en-suite bathroom with shower. FIRST FLOOR – An elegant Lecce-stone staircase leads to the upper floor, where in this version three double suites with en-suite bathroom with shower are available: the Provenzale suite, more secluded and furnished in the style from which it takes its name, and two suites with a more contemporary character, distinguished by glass walls. BASEMENT FLOOR – On request, the villa also offers a large champagnerie furnished in a modern style, ideal as a space for events or private convivial moments.
Park:
The fenced-in outdoor area extends for about 10000 sq m. Close to the main building, and more precisely to the right of it, is the large solarium area, paved with large slabs of local stone, with the elegant infinity pool. Guests can reach this area down the flight of steps that connects the elegant portico characterised by imposing columns of Lecce stone, where you can have dine while admiring the elegance of the villa reflected in the crystal-clear water of the pool. Numerous tall trees such as pines and cypresses stand in various points near the buildings ensuring lots of natural shade in the parking area as well as in the areas next to the solarium. There are also various areas of lawn adorned with flowering plants and, in particular, next to the pool area is a small citrus grove with seating from where you can enjoy the view of the whole majestic property while reading a good book or sipping an apéritif, perhaps at sunset when Villa Capozza beautifies itself in preparation for an evening with its guests.
Please notice that photos are taken in spring, therefore flower blossoming, and the colours of the gardens' grass could be different at the moment of your arrival at the villa.
Swimming Pool:
The elegant, refined infinity pool characterises the large solarium area and its considerable size (16 x 8 m) guarantees guests ideal comfort. To get to it, you go through the large windows of the hall of Wisteria that lead out to the external portico and down the flight of steps. The pool, lined in turquoise PVC with chlorine purification and Roman steps for access to the water, measures 16 x 8 m with a constant depth of 1,20 m. The many seats around the pool guarantee guests the ideal place to relax completely with the show put on by Villa Capozza that is mirrored in the crystal-clear water waiting for the evening, when the pool lights up, enhancing the enchanting atmosphere of the surrounding area. Near the pool are two cold-water showers. The pool is available to guests from the first Saturday of May to the last Saturday of September.
