We can't recommend this stay enough!! The Trulli is so peaceful and everything about our stay was perfect. We woke to the sounds of birds chirping and horses braying. Our girls especially loved the tree house in the beautiful old olive tree next to the Trulli.

Inside the Trulli was perfect, homely, comfortable, decorated beautifully with a mix of antique pieces. This was our favorite stay on our 6 week Europe vacation. We enjoyed breakfast each morning under the canopy of a grape vine pergola. We arranged a cooking class for our two young daughters (and ourselves) and we learned to make fresh orecchiette pasta, foccacia, meatballs, a delicious batter to coat vegetables using fresh produce from the family's garden.

Anna's family live just up the road. Be sure to book a cooking class with Veronica (Anna's sister) and ask to try Tonia's limoncello!! (Anna's mother). Tonia also makes one from mandarin and some others with herbs. If you have young children they might like to see Marco's menagerie (Anna's father) of birds, chickens, guinea pigs a peacock and a porcupine!! (our favourite). If you're lucky you might also catch a baby bird or chicken hatching like we did! You can also buy a bottle of their olive oil, home made from the trees on their farm. We are leaving with much heavier bags!! and very full hearts, we have already recommended all our families visit and we know this will not be our last stay here!!

Tthe surrounding areas are beautiful also, there are some lovely places all very easy day visits. Aroberobello 20mins away, Ostuni (the old town), the beaches near Ostuni and along that coast are lovely. The little old town of Cisternino with it's white walled buildings is wonderful too, and it was much less busy with tourists than all the others.

We found the people in the south of Italy to be warm, friendly and open. The north was very touristy and busy, whereas our stay in the south was much more peaceful and traditional. We LOVED it!!
Highly recommend this stay!!
