Beautiful trullo with private pool in rural setting - family friendly, sleeps 6

Trullo Mandorleto lies on a hill in a tranquil setting overlooking the valleys and medieval towns of Valle d'Itria. The 2Ha property with its Mediterranean garden and private swimming pool, century-old olive grove with fruit trees and local flora is peaceful and very private. It lies 12km from Ostuni and 5km from Ceglie Messapica also known as ‘città della gastronomia’ for its excellent cuisine and more than 60 restaurants serving local dishes at affordable prices.

The 19th-century trullo flanked by traditional ‘lamias’ is spacious (150m2). The house was fully renovated in 2012 using traditional materials to create an authentic trullo experience with modern comforts! Small archways, hidden alcoves and domed ceilings give it a mystical ambience that only a trullo can generate. All floors are made from ‘Trani’ marble, a honey-colored stone from local quarries. Windows have mosquito netting, traditional outer grills and shutters that can be left open at night to let in air. Walls up to 2m thick ensure that temperatures inside stay pleasantly cool during hot summer months.

With 3 double-bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, Mandorleto can comfortably sleep 6. A baby cot and high-chair can be provided upon request. The living room with 2 sofas, lounger and fire place is located in the main trullo. Bathrooms have walk-in showers, a bidet, toilet and wash basin. The spacious kitchen is bright and fully equipped for gourmet cooking with a dining table that seats 6-8 people. Double-doors lead to a terrace with stone table and 6 chairs for outdoor dining. The laundry room with washer & dryer is behind the kitchen and there is free Wi-Fi for your use.

Highlight is the swimming pool area overlooking our olive grove and surrounding countryside. There is a spacious terrace with outdoor shower where you can soak up the sun on comfortable sun beds or relax in the shade of the gazebo on warm summer afternoons. The gazebo has a stone table that comfortably seats 8 overlooking the pool and courtyard in front of the trullo, making it an ideal location for both day and night entertainment. Both lamias have large roof terraces with spectacular views. There is a small covered porch next to the trullo with stone table and 4 chairs and a well-lit BBQ area next to the kitchen terrace.

Our property is located approximately 100m from quiet a country lane and is reached via a gravel access road. The location is therefore very peaceful, without the sound of traffic! A parking area for up to 3 cars is located on our property outside the gate under the shade of olive trees. The house and swimming pool lie within a large, walled garden on an olive grove demarcated by dry stone walls along the west & east, a natural gulley along the south and a ravine in the north. Walks through the olive grove are highly recommended, especially in the early morning and late afternoon when temperatures are comfortable.

The area around our trullo is beautiful and worth exploring by walking along small country lanes that wind through olive groves and gardens with picturesque houses & trulli inhabited by local people. It is only a 10-minute walk to Seppunisi farm where you can buy local mozzarella, cheese and fresh dairy products. Shops and restaurants are in Ceglie Messapica where a summer festival is hosted in July and August with cultural events, food & art markets, live music and the famous Food & Wine festival.
The location is ideal for day trips to the seaside and visits to neighboring towns like Ostuni “the white city”, Alberobello the UNESCO town with over 1000 trulli and elegant Martina Franca, all within a 15-30 minute drive away. Though somewhat farther afield, the cultural towns of Lecce and Matera, the ancient sea port of Gallipoli and the spectacular southern coastline with its crystal clear, turquoise colored waters of the Adriatic and Ionian seas are also within easy reach.

    “We had the pleasure of visiting this trullo for a second time in August 2015 with friends. We first visited in July/August 2014 and were extremely impressed by the exceptional ambience this traditional trullo offers. It is a holiday with a difference if you are looking for privacy and seclusion. Having recently been refurbished and offering every modern amenity, it has managed to retain every aspect of its original charm and character with arched doorways and hollow cones enhancing the original character of the house. The various outdoor seating areas allow for very different perspectives and views to the valleys and neighbouring towns. Set in private grounds with ancient olive tress all around, one is lost in a different world. The evening sunsets are spectacular in the height of summer accompanied by a chorus of crickets and silhouetted by ancient olive trees. The location of the property also lends itself to explore the area and the surrounding towns of Ceglie Messapica only 10 minutes drive providing a host of shops, cafes and restaurants, Ostuni, Martina Franca and Alberobello with its array of traditional trulli are all close by and worth a visit.

    The property has also got the benefit of a swimming pool and gazebo area to further enhance the holiday experience. This is an ideal holiday for the discerning traveler looking for tranquility and privacy but with an abundance of interesting towns and country to explore. We will definitely be returning as the earliest opportunity.”

    “Bellissima esperienza !

    Ottima posizione a pochi minuti dal centro di Ceglie Messapica, incantevole paese con numerosi ristoranti dall'ottima cucina pugliese, a pochi minuti di auto Alberobello, Cisternino ed Ostuni con le sue bellissime spiagge. Il Trullo è molto confortevole, completamente ristrutturato da un paio di anni, dispone di tutto il necessario per un piacevole soggiorno nella Valle d'Itria. Sicuramente un esperienza da ripetere.”
