A good central location to explore Puglia. Once in a lifetime opportunity to stay in a Trulli which this region is known for. The property is stunning - one of the best places we have stayed in. We absolutely loved it. 2 bedrooms - perfect for a family of 4 (however we put a blow up mattress on the floor for our 3rd child) - so also works comfortably with a family of 5. Fully stocked kitchen with a small a market and butcher around the corner so we could cook at home.
Huge garden with olive trees, fig trees and a vegetable and herb garden which we could pick from. Beautiful swimming pool and playground with swings. Lots of outdoor space to relax and to enjoy the surroundings.
Some things we did in the region - visited the Trulli village in Alberobello.
The host left us a fantastic bottle of Primitive. We found the winery was close by in Alberobello and went for a wine tasting and bought lots of inexpensive excellent local wine.
The Grotte di Castellana is a fun experience - it’s thelargest caves in Europe.
We visited Ostuni- the white city
Polignano a Mare is beautiful town known for cliff diving.
We drive down to the top of the heel - Santa Maria di Leuca. There are some incredible beaches here along the southern coastline.
It was an unforgettable holiday. We wish we could stay longer.
