Puglia
Step into the enchanting realm of Valle d’Itria in Apulia, where the whispers of mainstream tourism have yet to echo, but the secret is bound to slip away soon!
A trullo property restored across five acres of Pugliese countryside, fifteen minutes from the Adriatic and a short drive from the heart of the Itria Valley. The trulli have been knitted into a single living plan without losing the conical roofs that make the region's architecture distinctive — the lounge sits inside one of the original cones, the kitchen has the curved white walls and the cool stone of the trullo tradition. The grounds are olive groves, dry stone walls, and a pool set into a courtyard between the cones. The closest town for groceries is San Michele Salentino; the closest for a long dinner is Ceglie Messapica, fifteen minutes away. Best for a small group that wants the trulli experience as accommodation rather than as a photograph.

Spacious living room containing a generous L-shaped comfortable sofa and dining area with a large table that sits up to 14
A floor-to-ceiling glass sliding door opens to the outdoors creating flow between the living room and the garden and establishing a strong connection between indoor spaces and the natural environment.
The quiet and calm aesthetics of the interiors extend to the outdoor space. Here, the sun-drenched private pool, two elegantly furnished patios, many tables for dining al fresco, the barbecue area with wood-burning oven and the manicured gardens, including a vegetable patch, are ideal places where family and friends will have an effortless vacation in a no-sense-of-time paradise.
