We wanted an authentic rural Puglian experience and Giuseppe's IL Gelso Trullo provided the perfect solution. A few kilometers from Ceglie Messapica, Giuseppe has tastefully restored a Trullo from the 1600's with the following: a Cook's kitchen; 2 comfortable bedrooms; indoor and outdoor showers; and a nice kitchen table and sitting area. Additionally, he has a GREAT outdoor BBQ and a small pool. The property is also full of many productive fruit and olive trees. Giuseppe was an exceptional host who was very kind and ultra responsive to anything we needed. We were very pleased with our choice to stay here as a central location from which to tour all of Puglia. We would definitely come back and feel confident in recommending it to anyone.
