The “trullo” – the traditional house of Apulia
“Trulli” (the plural of “trullo”) are dry stone, conical rooved huts which are typical of and specific to the Italian region of Apulia. This “trullo” was built in 1850 and has been newly renovated in order to maintain its original identity. It is located in the centre of an extremely large (approximately a hectare) and secluded area, and surrounded by nature of spectacular beauty and centuries old olive trees. It is the ideal place for holidays with friends and family in search of contact with the environment of the Mediterranean. The location provides for comfortable evenings and nights, even in the hottest months. Internally, the “trullo” is always fresh, even during the hottest hours of the day. The property is composed of two completely independent bedrooms, each with its own bathroom and shower (50 m2). There is even a barbeque in the patio. Furthermore, the “trullo” is protected by a monitored alarm system. The beautiful sandy beaches of the Nature Reserve of Torre Guaceto are just 15 km away, and can be reached comfortably by car. Here, you can find free beaches, or you can rent an umbrella and deck chair, and leave your vehicle at a monitored car park. Meanwhile, the magnificent beaches of the Ionic Coast are only 40 km away: among the places most famous for their beauty are Porto Cesareo, the Nature Reserve of Porto Selvaggio and Gallipoli.
The vacation home features a kitchen and a balcony or patio, and there's space to spread out with a separate bedroom and a dining area. The bathroom offers hair dryers and bidets. Other standard amenities include a fireplace, a coffee maker, and an ironing board. Limited housekeeping is available.

A unique place to stay
We loved the rustic nature of the house in its own grounds and spent time sitting out on the terrace. We adapted quickly to the ways of the house, which had everything we needed. Luigi who looked after us could not have done more. The weather was very windy and we had a big thunderstorm, that's the only thing that was a downside.

Vacanza bellissima
E’ un posto unico, immerso tra gli ulivi, tranquillissimo sia di giorno che di notte. Il trullo e’ ristrutturato molto bene, il giardino e’ curatissimo, e dentro e’ molto fresco anche con 40 gradi fuori! I proprietari sono simpatici e sempre disponibili per dare indicazioni sulle spiagge, su dove mangiare, su come muoversi in generale anche al telefono, sono informatissimi su tutta la Puglia! La mattina in base ai venti si puo’ scegliere se andare sul Mar Adriatico (consigliatissima la Riserva Naturale di Torre Guaceto a pochi chilometri) o sul Mar Ionio (Punta Prosciutto e dintorni), non saprei dire quale spiaggia sia piu’ bella, il mare e’ bellissimo. Anche Mesagne ha un bel centro storico. Questo trullo e’ in una posizione strategica per raggiungere sia Cisternino, Locorotondo e la Valle D’Itria che il basso Salento con Lecce, Gallipoli e Otranto. Insomma location consigliatissima!

piccolo paradiso
Una bellissima proprietà tutta per noi in un angolo di campagna tra gli ulivi
in posizione strategica per la costa adriatica e per la costa ionica.
Abitare un vero trullo dotato di ogni comfort è un esperienza affascinante, grazie a Manuela per le precise indicazioni e arrivederci.

Un gros défaut qui gâche l'ensemble de la prestation
Sur le papier, ce trullo a tout pour plaire : des bâtiments joliment rénovés (cependant gros problème d'humidité dans la dépendance mais qui devrait être rapidement réglé selon le propriétaire), propriétaires charmants et disponibles, grand jardin, situation au milieu des oliveraies...
Le gros point noir concerne la localisation : effectivement c'est très calme en journée mais le soir c'est l'enfer. Il faut savoir qu'à 500 mètres du trullo, se situe un hôtel (la Tenuta Moreno) qui a fait de sa spécialité l'organisation de mariages. La musique à partir de minuit est insupportable, comme si le DJ était dans le jardin. Nous avons eu des soirées organisées 80% de notre séjour dont 3 nuits pendant lesquelles on n'a quasiment pas pu dormir. Nous avons prévenu le propriétaire (captures audio à l'appui) qui s'est montré désolé pour nous, nous a dit que cela arrivait pour la 1ère fois et nous a proposé d'écourter notre séjour contre remboursement de la durée restante (impossible en pleine saison de retrouver une location)
C'est vraiment dommage car c'est effectivement très calme en journée et ce défaut nous a grandement gâché notre séjour.

Fascinoso è bello come le immagini pubblicate, posizione comoda, proprietari simpatici e disponibili
Punto strategico per spostarsi sulle due coste a seconda del vento, ideale anche per visitare località non balneari che meritano una sosta. La notte silenziosa immersi negli uilivi è un'esperienza unica. Anche la vicina Mesagne è carina.

Trullo très agréable - Idéal pour visiter les pouilles
Malgré les températures élevées, nous avons passé un super séjour dans ce trullo (qui conserve bien la fraicheur), situé au milieu d'un oliveraie. Beaucoup de choses à voir ou à faire aux alentours (plages, visites etc...). Plage de Samana vraiment superbe coté mer ionienne. Propriétaires sympas et réactifs. Bref une semaine de dépaysement total !

L'idéal pour des vacances réussies
Une excellente impression dès notre arrivée lorsque nous avons aperçu le trullo. C'est beau et bien entretenu.
A la visite, ma première impression n'était pas trompeuse, j'ai de suite su que nous allions passer une excellente semaine.
Le trullo est au milieu des oliviers magnifiques , et à perte de vue que des oliviers centenaires.
A cinq minutes de voiture se trouve Mesagnes, petite ville pleine de charme ou vous trouverez tout ce qu'il faut.
Situation idéale pour visiter les Pouilles .
Merci aux propriétaires pour leurs bonnes indications et la qualité de leur accueil.
