This trullo has such thoughtful design and functionality that you will immediately be relaxed. The kitchen is well equipped--you can even make bacalao, and there are a lot of spices. Just a few of the features: beautiful stone and tile; outdoor rain shower; well-tended gardens; almond trees; rosemary and other herbs; Adriatic views (swim until November). It's tempting to spend time in the garden and eat every meal at one of the outdoor spaces, but the true beauty of Puglia is in the human interaction you will have. The people are so caring, thoughtful and trusting. Everyone will spend a lot of time with you if you show just the slightest interest. The food is magical. This is the best collection I have seen in fifty years of travel. There are numerous and easy to find seafood markets, meat markets (maccelleria--esp. those with counter and restaurant), wine shops, vegetable markets in every town on a different day (Ostuni Sat., Carovigno Tues., Cisternino Mon., Martina Franca Wed., Alberobello Thurs., Locorotondo Fri.), and the restaurants.
