This charming villa is made up of a trullo and a lamia made from local stone – staying here, you get a taste of authentic southern Italian living. It’s just 4 kilometres from the town centre of Castellana Grotte, and 15 kilometres from iconic Alberobello. It’s in a great position for exploring Puglia, though we’d recommend bringing a car to do so. The home is traditional and inviting. We love the panoramic views of the surrounding countryside, which can be enjoyed from the terrace. Outside, you’ll find a private pool in addition to a fantastic alfresco dining area – there’s a pizza oven and barbecue to cook on.
