Casa Leonardo - Holiday home in Paestum

Stylish living by the sea

The traces of the ancient past are present everywhere in Paestum: The famous ancient Greek temples today still bear testimony of the historical importance of the town, Odysseus during his wanderings also passed Paestum.

Its fascinating past, the location by the sea and the Mediterranean climate moved wealthy Europeans to build up their refuge here. Also the family owning Casa Leonardo appreciates its spacious holiday home, to escape the bustle of daily life and let the soul relax.

Casa Leonardo offers best conditions for a soothing holiday: located in a cul-de-sac of the well-tended villa subdivision of Laura di Paestum, you reach the sea and the long, wide and softly falling sandy beach of Paestum within only ca. 80 m.

Two beautiful, large terraces invite you to a “life outdoors”. The spacious roof terrace with sea view located on the upper storey is a paradise for sun lovers. But also guests preferring the shade can easily spend time here: Below the pergola, you find a large table with chairs – ideal to sit together in the evenings.

On the roofed terrace of the ground floor, which cannot be looked upon, you have the feeling of staying in a green oasis: the diverse flora of the small garden, a comfortable dining corner and an outdoor shower communicate “pure holiday sensation”.

The interior of the house is no less remarkable than the exteriour of Casa Leonardo, concerning both comfort and style.

In the spacious living/dining room with its beautiful round arcs you will immediately feel at home: two stone sofa benches with colourful cushions, a satellite TV (with English channels) and a radio provide for entertainment, cosy armchairs and a dining table of massive wood with matching chairs create a homely atmosphere.

The interior reflects the interests of the owners: tasteful travel souvenirs from all over the world and many books lend a personal note to the rooms.

Your holiday home offers three bedrooms, which are all equipped with their own respective bathrooms (shower or bath tub/bidet/WC): all together, seven people can stay in one double bedroom (with safe), a twin bedroom and a three bedroom.

The kitchen of Casa Leonardo is fully equipped (incl. microwave, oven, dishwasher).

Due to the integrated central heating system, the holiday home can also be recommended for a stay in the low season.

As guests, you may use the washing machine, iron and iron board. There is also wifi available at Casa Leonardo.

You may park your car on the fenced property.

The nearest stores and restaurants are found within about 800 m.

Discover during your holiday in Casa Leonardo the diversity of the Cilento! Water rats will find beautiful beaches and clear water along the coast. Lovers of long hiking tours will get their money’s worth in the national park. For culturally interested guests, apart from a visit to the temples already mentioned, excursions to Pompeii, Herculaneum, Velia or Padula are just a few more possibilities.

Please note: As Casa Leonardo is equipped with partly fragile, partly very personal objects, the owner does not consider it suitable for families with children under ten years of age.

Please note further that the obliging and discreet owner reserves to use the villa's dependance regularly. She is glad to offer advice during your holidays.
