Picture perfect with its many arches, a vine-covered pergola, and a magnificent outdoor space, this storied Trullo is waiting for you to add your own bit of history underneath the warm wooden beams. Beams that, in addition to the exposed brickwork and rough, stone floor give this home its unique charm. Can you see yourself here, enjoying a glass of wine as you watch the dancing flames in the fireplace?

Perhaps you can better envisage getting to work in the farm-style kitchen by rolling out gnocchi for a homemade recipe. Once prepared, you can enjoy it at the heavy-wood dining table or carry it outside where you can share a meal alfresco under the pergola.

Spend lazy days in and around the pool – bookworms will especially love the option of claiming a sunbed in which to read all day. Take walks through the garden – there is almost an entire hectare of it awaiting exploration, after all – and end every evening with drinks under the glittering night sky.

Travel to the beaches along the coast for days out and enjoy meals at the local taverna whenever you’re not in the mood to cook.
