Wow! Danny’s organic farm is a hidden gem! The trulli is set not far from the farmhouse, but has privacy, and is located close to the infinity swimming pool. Danny met us on arrival with a bowl of his own vegetables and fruit... organic aubergines courgettes tomatoes, for those who like to cook as we do it was fantastic! Also his own jams and honey yum!!
The trulli is comfortable and cosy, we were a couple but there is another bedroom that we didnt use. It’s all newly decorated and sparkling clean. The trulli is open plan living with archways connecting the main living areas. It was cool to look up into the whitewashed pointy cone shaped ceilings.
There’s a lovely natural vine style covered terrace to have meals and drinks, cool and shady in the sunshine. So much outside space we felt we were in our own private boutique hotel!
If you love picturesque countryside, and spa like facilities this perfectly sums up Danny’s farm.
We spent our time touring local towns all close by: Alberobello and Locorotondo our favourites. Not to mention Matera which is a day trip but such a stunning town. The next James Bond was filming there! So come before it’s released!!
It was a perfect end to a busy day to return to the tranquility of the trulli in the evening for a glass of wine on the terrace or by the pool, or a simple meal of organic vegetables and fruit! Bliss!
Danny was certainly a superhost! We even had a lesson in harvesting honey, as he also produces delicious honey flavoured with the gogi berries the bees had fed on.
Thanks Danny for an amazing stay, we wished we had a few more days to linger!
