In a quiet corner of Puglia, where traditions run deep and beauty unfolds in the details, Petra Country House emerges as a refined expression of boutique hospitality. More than a destination, Petra is a lifestyle—one rooted in comfort, culture, and care. Situated in Monteroni di Lecce, just moments from Lecce’s historic center and the coast, Petra invites you to discover a slower, richer way to travel.
Petra Country House – Boutique Comfort With a Personal Soul
What sets Petra Country House apart isn’t only its architecture or picturesque location—it’s the soul that breathes through every aspect of the guest experience. This is hospitality designed with intimacy, where no two stays are ever the same.
From personalized greetings to thoughtful turndown touches, everything is curated with care. Here, you are not guest number 112—you are simply you, and Petra responds to your rhythm.
Cultural Themes Brought to Life Through Design
Each room at Petra is inspired by the ancient civilizations that once shaped the Salento region: Greeks, Romans, and Messapians. The interiors are adorned with traditional materials, muted tones, and artisanal finishes that reflect history while embracing comfort.
All accommodations include essential modern amenities like private bathrooms, Wi-Fi, air conditioning, and premium linens. Yet it’s the design story of each room—its colors, textures, and quiet charm—that make it truly memorable.
Curated Services Rooted in Wellness and Pleasure
Petra believes that true luxury lies in simplicity done exceptionally well. That belief is reflected in its generous offering of services:
- A pool with hydro-massage nestled in a pine grove
- Open-air seating for quiet reading or meaningful conversation
- A bocce court that blends play and tradition
- A flexible event space suited for wellness retreats, music evenings, or artist residencies
Whether your goal is to rest, celebrate, or create, Petra provides the tools and setting to do so with intention.
A Living Connection to Local Life
More than just an escape, Petra Country House offers a gateway into authentic Apulian living. Through curated local experiences, guests become part of the region’s story:
- Traditional cooking classes where you learn to prepare regional dishes
- Wine tastings from carefully selected Salento producers
- Craft workshops with artisans who preserve ancient techniques
These encounters offer not just insight, but true connection—making your travel experience deeper, more tactile, and more human.
Petra is also a sought-after venue for bespoke events, retreats, and private gatherings. Whether it’s an intimate wedding, a business offsite, or a creative collaboration, every occasion is guided by Petra’s quiet elegance and attention to detail.
A Perfect Base for Exploration
Located just minutes from Lecce and a short drive from Salento’s finest beaches, Petra gives guests the flexibility to explore widely and return peacefully. Wander through Lecce’s baroque streets, taste the sea air in Gallipoli, or spend a morning at a local market—then return to Petra for a nap in the shade or an aperitivo by the pool.
This ease of movement between discovery and relaxation is one of Petra’s most appealing qualities.

Petra Country House is for those who travel not just to see, but to feel. It is for guests who value depth, quiet, and beauty; who seek personal experiences over polished packages. It is a lifestyle rooted in human connection, natural rhythms, and lasting impressions.
It’s where service feels like friendship, luxury feels like warmth, and every stay leaves you changed—calmer, fuller, and more inspired.
