The Trullo was unique and a great way to experience farm life in Puglia in a different time. Having an open fire was great for warmth and also the calm one gets from sitting and watching the wood burn. The location is beautiful being in the middle of a vineyard, olive grove and vegetable plot in the countryside. The location is also excellent for visiting other places of interest and easy to return to after a days driving. The hosts were very kind and generous with the firewood and help in finding local food although winter is probably not the best time to "discover" local restaurants as some close in winter. However, we considered our time in Ceglie Messapica to be a delightful Pugliesi experience!
