Donato’s traditional trullo was perfect for our family holiday. Not only is the home itself beautiful but the gardens and farmland around it are maintained and peaceful.
The trullo and pool are private, which was a real luxury, yet within 10 minutes you can be in the centre of Ceglie Messapica surrounded by restaurants and even live music. You really get the best of both with this location.
Donato and his family were perfect hosts, welcoming us in person despite a late flight. They were available any time we needed them, being within 10 minutes drive in the main town. On one evening we were even cooked a delicious traditional Puglian meal, the evening was fun and relaxed.
Within 30-45 minutes you can see many breathtaking locations in Puglia and we will definitely be returning to explore more. Although you could easily relax at the trullo every day!
We are so grateful to Donato and his family for looking after us so well. We were left baskets of fresh vegetables grown on the farm for us to cook with and had the most wonderful goodbye when we left. A special family and a special place to stay!
