Overall we enjoyed our stay here. We had a blast firing up the wood fired grill in the back and loved that there was a Trulli attached to the house. Also loved the rooftop as the sunsets were beautiful. We did have some issues with the pool as we were told we couldn't use it, but overall we loved are stay anyways. We would recommend this place for others.

The photos don’t do it justice! Beautiful property in a peaceful, serene setting. Fully equipped with everything you could need and more. The only negative thing we could think of were the pesky mosquitos so bring bug spray. But regardless, we loved our stay and hope to return again some day!

Wonderful relaxing property

This was the perfect place for us to start a relaxing holiday in Puglia! The property is extremely tidy and clean and it was a true pleasure staying there. The house is very privately located in the countryside, but it is still easy to visit the surrounding towns of eg. Alberobello or Castellana within a 15 min drive. We really enjoyed staying there and will definitively stay there again when we visit Puglia again.

Fantastic in Every Way

The property is in a great 'secluded' location but still within driving distance of the beach and more touristy spots. The pool was great for the kids and the view from the house was amazing. So quiet and perfect for 7 of us. We had a great time at the house and wished we had a longer stay there. The house and pool was clean and inviting. Perfect place really. I want to add photos but it wont let me. The property was beautiful at sunset!

Lovely property with pool and views

The property was perfect for two families with children sharing a room. The pool was great and the air-conditioned upstairs and naturally cool downstairs bedrooms were great as we were there in a heatwave. The owner communicated quickly and the local contact was very helpful. We had to meet about 10mins from the property and be driven there and we're glad we understand italian ! Lovely area, loads to visit within 20-30 mins of the property.

Throughly enjoyed our stay. Beautiful home in the countryside, amazing views, great pool. Would recommend some fans for the bedrooms to help with airflow. The a/c is only on the top floor. Would highly recommend this home. Shared the listing with family from other parts of Italy and Scotland.

Excellent accommodation

Trullo Rosso is an excellent place to stay. The house is clean and well equipped with comfortable beds is secluded & not overlooked. The views from the covered terrace and the pool are superb. The house is well located for visiting some of the most interesting places in northern and central Puglia. The railway station in Monopoli is only 20 minutes drive which gave us a more relaxing means of getting to Bari and Trani to the north and Lecce to the south by train. Liza who manages the house and lives across the road, was very pleasant and helpful.

Great stay near Castellana Grotte

We loved this property near all the great sights in the Val d’Itria. Pool was great. The outdoor table was perfect. Note that there is no AC in the bedrooms - we were fine, but our friends had to go purchase a fan. As noted in several reviews - you have to walk through the bunk room to get to one of the Queen rooms. The roll out couch is very hard - more for kids if you need to use it. We enjoyed the space for hanging out, Clean, friendly, would do it again!!

House in the middle of olive trees with nothing around you

Outdoor areas with the pool and terraces are beautifully overlooking olive trees all around you with a fill of being in the middle of nowhere. Very peaceful and enjoyable. Great base to take as you drive around Puglia visiting all the beautiful towns. Access to the bedrooms is through an internal stair and they are located in the basement. To access one of the bedrooms you need to go through the one that has the bunkbeds and it only has 1 bathroom to service all the rooms. The second bathroom is upstairs and both having a very small shower that uses a shower curtain that makes it very uncomfortable.

Nous avons passé une super semaine dans la maison de Michel. L’atout de cette maison est son extérieur: une piscine extraordinaire, bien entretenue chaque matin, avec un jardin d’Oliviers et autres plantations. Maison très au calme, ce qui est agréable. Liza nous a bien accueillie et a été de bons conseils. Les chambres sont plutôt grandes, situées au sous-sol donc un peu fraîches l’été. Cependant, il manquait quand même la climatisation pour mieux dormir (Clim seulement dans la cuisine). Je recommande cette location qui permet de visiter les pouilles tout en étant à l’écart de la foule et avec une piscine au top!

Villa magnifique pour une grande famille dans les Pouilles.

Nous étions 2 familles pour un séjour de 4 jours dans la région et aurions aimé y passer encore moins de temps. La villa est magnifique, bien équipée, dans un environnement calme avec vue et piscine incroyable! Les lits étaient confortables, les espaces extérieurs très chaleureux et conviviaux. Même si la région a beaucoup à offrir, nous avions toujours hâte de revenir à la villa pour se baigner et de faire un BBQ.

La propriété est conforme à l'annonce, nous y avons passé un excellent séjours(6 adultes).La villa est perdue dans la campagne avec une vue magnifique sur les alentours et les trulli qui se cachent ça et là.La piscine est un vrai plus pour cette location. Mention spéciale pour le monsieur qui s'occupe de la piscine et du terrain, bien qu'il ne parle pas français et nous pas italien nous avons pu communiquer( le language des mains!) et avoir ses conseils sur les arbres fruitiers du terrains et notamment la cueillette et dégustation des figues de Barbarie.
