Corte Largo Lauro

Corte Largo Lauro - Gemini, Ugento

In the heart of the small village of Gemini, just 4 km from the white beaches of Torre Mozza and Torre San Giovanni, Corte Largo Lauro invites you on a journey through the most authentic Salento. This historic 19th-century residence, with its characteristic star vaults and fine cellars, takes its name from the majestic laurel tree that once embraced the small square in front of it.

Staying here means immersing yourself in Salento traditions, amongst handloom-woven fabrics, reclaimed cement tiles and furnishings that tell stories of rural life. The rooms, overlooking the courtyard, offer modern comforts without betraying the charm of bygone times.

Perfect for cyclists on the Ionian Salento Cycle Route, this bike-friendly accommodation is less than an hour from Lecce and Otranto. After a day of cycling, relax in the underground spa with heated pool, Turkish bath and infrared sauna, or book a rejuvenating massage.

Anna and Massimo, with passion and dedication, are ready to guide you in discovering the region through boat trips, guided tours and local food and wine specialities.
