General Overview
Chez Zia Chicca's is a lovely house located in the town of Martano, a 20-minute drive from the baroque city of Lecce in the heart of Puglia.
It's a family-owned house passed down four generations - if those walls could speak, I bet you'd hear fascinating stories (including how 12 people used to sleep in one room while a horse would walk past through the main house to reach the stables at the back!).
The Space
It has high, star-shaped ceilings and big open spaces, and a private outdoor space where you can relax, get some work done, or just sunbathe during the hot summers.
It has a big entrance hall, a dining room, a kitchen, a bathroom, and an extra room currently used for storage. It can accommodate between 4 to 6 people. There's a double bed, two single beds, and 1 sofa bed, all located in the big entrance room.

Hi! I'm Riccardo (or Rick for friends and guests), 27 y.o., born and raised in Lecce in the beautiful region of Puglia in the South of Italy. I'm a Marketing Specialist and part-time actor based in London. When not in London, you might find me in Italy spending time with family & friends, or travelling the world! I've got stories for days about my travels.
I love exploring new cultures and places. I'm a sportsperson, and enjoy running, swimming, surfing and training at the gym. I'm looking to explore new places, and I mostly travel solo. I have a holiday house in Puglia, so I'm looking to exchange throughout the year so I can travel cheap - we can all do with some extra £££ saved on accommodation to do more fun stuff!
