The original structure of trulli cones dates back to approx 1870 and has been restored under the attentive eye of the owners who have added a “few” modern modifications to enable their guests to experience life in a trullo whilst being utterly spoilt by its structural magnificence and interior elegance. The structure is set in a secluded and exclusive area bordering the towns of Ostuni, the white city, and Cisternino, world known by many celebrities who spend the summer there. There is an infinity edge beautiful pool overlooking the surrounding countryside with teak deck and an impressive covered veranda furnished with dining facilities and a barbecue. This Trullo is certainly suitable for a family with children traveling with their nanny or a group of friends traveling together to explore the mysteries of the southern tip of Italy. With one doubles and three twin rooms plus four bathrooms there is a mix to suit all needs.
Further details of the indoors:
Lavishly restored trulli have been dedicated to the night area with the master bedroom occupying three trulli inclusive of private ensuite and dressing room. Two further twins share a bathroom within the same complex. Opposite the main trulli structure there is a private self contained trullo/studio ideal for a young couple or teenagers needing distance from the main holiday group.
The living area, naturally well lit is a separated and non-communicating lamia with high barrel vaulted ceilings. The high-tech kitchen is central to the dining area with ample seating for 6-8 people adjacent to the open lounge with cozy ambient.
Further details of the outdoors:
The grounds are lawned encircling the main structure before the 10,000 square metres of surrounding land becomes dedicated to agricultural fields of oak and olive trees. The panorama has been preserved with pleasurable distant views across the Valle d’Itria to the front of the property with a contrasting wild woodland to the rear.
The swimming pool is 12 x 5 m infinity pool deep 1,20-150 metres open from the beginning of the summer season through to the end of September.

The valley d’Itria lies on the border between the provinces of Bari, Brindisi and Taranto. It is at approx twenty minutes drive from the Adriatic Sea and forty minutes drive from the Ionian Sea. The valley of the trulli is so named for the presence of thousands of trulli of various sizes. It is the valley of the Baroque rural treasures, dry-stone walls, protected natural areas, the breeding of horses and donkeys, of festivals of wine, good food and tranquility. The valley is situated on a plateau 350 meters above sea level. It is rather a Karstic depression that runs between Locorotondo, Cisternino and Martina Franca. This geological phenomenon has also created the fascinatingly beautiful caves of Castellana Grotta, which run for about 3km under the north-eastern edge of the Valle d'Itria.
The caves of Castellana Grotta offer an excellent, educational and fun day trip with children and there are many more diverting activities for children in the area, including the zoo safari and amusement park at Fasano and the magical old town centre of Alberobello, a trulli wonderland that charms and delights old and young alike.
Food lovers too will not be left wanting! Each town in the Valle d'Itria seems to have its own speciality, whether it is the capocollo ham of Martina Franca, the meat bombette of Cisternino (barbecued directly by the butcher for you) or the DOC white wine of Locorotondo. Of course the olive oil is supreme and the cheeses, including the milky delights of burratina, are memorable! The valley in Valle d'Itria's name is not a a typical valley but rather a Karstic depression that runs between Locorotondo, Cisternino and Martina Franca. This geological phenomenon has also created the fascinatingly beautiful caves of Castellana Grotta, which run for about 3km under the north-eastern edge of the Valle d'Itria.
