The Park and Garden
Il Leccio is a true natural heritage that we jealously strive to preserve and where, for centuries, days are governed by the rythms of the seasons and its natural surroundings. The park of oak trees, the typical Italian garden with its fragrant roses and lavender, with the green lemon trees and its elegant hedges; the garden with its seasonal vegetables, fruits, and its fragrant herbs; hectares of olive groves and vineyards that are home to a protected area in which you can see and appreciate pheasants, squirrels, deer and owls that live undisturbed.
