We had a lovely 3 night stay at this rustic and relaxing spot! Juan kindly stayed up late to meet us as our plane was 2 hours late. Francesca came to talk to us on our terrace at breakfast to make sure we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Breakfast was delicious, consisting of local fruits, cheeses, bread, coffee and homemade pastries and biscuits. She recommended us places to go and showed us how to rent bikes for the duration. She even gave us a lift to Cisternino train station on our last day. The pool is really wonderful- clean and spacious with sun loungers and tables round the edge of you want a shady spot for lunch. The trullo itself is cosy, air-conditioned and well maintained and the resident cleaner tidies it and changes the bedlinen every 2 days.
Recommend the traditional roasted meat at one of the butcher-restaurants in Cisternino and a visit to the 'Masseria il Frantoio' olive grove for a tour/tasting (cycle there and book in advance). Thank you Francesca!
