A stylish, comfortable trullo in a superb location and with a great pool.

Trullo Terra Dolce (literally, "Sweet Earth") is a beautifully restored collection of original trulli, set in the rolling olive groves, and with far reaching views, of the soothing Valle d'Itria countryside. The sensitive restoration has comfort in mind in the form of superb fittings and underfloor climate control, and great style in the choice of materials and furnishings. This is a flexible property that will suit many group formations, from families to groups of friends.

"Fantastic property! We liked it so much that we plan on purchasing a trullo in Puglia!” Nicolas Coudurier, France, April 2012

About the Property


Inside: accommodation at Trullo Terra Dolce is spread over three independently accessed houses which, whilst resembling a single building from the outside, are not connected internally. The "main house" is nearest to the pool and has a comfortable open-plan living and dining room with large glass doors offering stunning views over the gardens and pool, a well-equipped kitchen, also with garden access, one double bedroom with en-suite bathroom (the bed is in an alcove), a study with daybed and a second bathroom.

The middle of the three houses is a classic trullo and is home to a double bedroom (with bed in an alcove) and an en-suite bathroom.

The third house, furthest from the pool, comprises 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms (of which 1 en-suite), a living room with access to the gardens and an al fresco dining and lounge area, a dining room with original bread oven and a kitchen.

The properties have been beautifully restored to a very high quality and subtly brought into the 21st century: many of the original features have been retained, some fulfilling their original function, others being ingeniously put to other uses. Traditional Puglian and exotic Indian furniture and furnishings combine to create a bright, cheery atmosphere throughout, while the bathrooms combine contemporary-style suites with original stone-carved wash basins.

Booking notes:
a. if you book as a couple (i.e. 1 bedroom) you will be accommodated in the main house.
b. if you need 2 bedrooms, you may choose either the main house and the trullo or the 2-bedroom house
c. if you need 3 bedrooms, you will be accommodated in the main house and the 2-bedroom house.

Whether you book just the main house or all the property, you will always have exclusive use of the grounds and pool.

Outside: Trullo Terra Dolce is surrounded by extensive gardens and terraces with a selection of shady spots for al fresco living and dining. Green lawns alternate with paved areas and all has been planted with a large variety of colourful and fragrant Mediterranean flora. The focal point, however, is the splendid pool, from which views over the surrounding woods (accessible from the gardens) and gentle countryside are delightful.

The Area

Exploring the local Area

Trullo Terra Dolce is situated at the southern end of the Valle d'Itria between Ostuni, a beautifully restored baroque town with stunning panoramic views, and the pretty centre of Ceglie Messapica. The Valle d'Itria, however, is probably best known for its trulli, and nowhere are these more in evidence than in the picture-postcard town of Alberobello. Locorotondo, Cisternino and Martina Franca are also well worth a visit. If you are looking for beaches, the Adriatic coast offers endless stretches of sand and some well recommended lidos from which to enjoy it. Further afield, Lecce, Gallipoli, Otranto and Monopoli are justly famous towns waiting for you to unlock their secrets.
