Beautifully Restored Accessible Trulli with Large 15m Private Pool and Gardens

Dear Guest Thank you so much for the 5 stars, It was a joy to have you stay at the Trulli. I don't get to meet all of our guests as I am usually at home in Ireland, so for me it was great meet you and to hear first hand your reaction to the Trullo and its grounds, it was definitely a meeting of kindred spirits. As you said I look forward to seeing you again next year. Best Wishes Liz

Dear Richard Many thanks for your lovely review. It is nice to know that the extra planting we did in the garden was appreciated. I just picked the last of the tomatoes this week. the Pomegranates and Sharon Fruit are just ripening and ready to eat. I am planning more vegetables next year.

Hi John Many thanks for your lovely review. We put a huge effort into the land and garden this Spring in response to the changing climate in Puglia. We have saved a lot of water and we think made the garden even more beautiful. So glad you had a great holiday and hope to see you soon again. Liz

Hi I am so happy you had a great time, I have spent a lot of time on the grounds, I am beginning to plant according to Permaculture Principles and hope eventually have a "Food Forest" in place, producing more and more Fruit and Vegetables. We have been terrible delayed ourselves when traveling with babies and grannys, so we know how stressful that can be, which is why we decided that no matter what time you get to the Trulli your holiday has started and there is a snack in the fridge.I agree Hilary and John are fantastic, they make everybody feel welcome and looked after. Looking forward to your return Liz

I am so glad you had such a great time. You will be pleased to hear that we have found good homes for the cats with lovely families locally.

Dear Guest I am so happy you had such a lovely time. We have put 12 years of work into the restoration of the Trullo and created the garden from a field. We laid the garden and pool out around the ancient olive trees and the 300 year old cypress tree. Sadly Puglia lost all of its Palm trees 4 years ago due to a beetle from North Africa, and we lost ours. We kept the Trullo as authentic as possible, with many original features such as the original stone floors and the hall door, we even bought and moved a small trulli with cone to build the bathroom so that all the stones match and you cant see that it is new from the outside. Many Thanks

Dear Whittle Family Thank you so much for your kind review and the 5 stars, and also for your lovely remarks in the Visitors Book at the house. Yes Jacki is fantastic at looking after the house and all the guests when I am not there myself. We are always so happy when our guests have had a great holiday. We do try to pay close attention to detail. I agree with you about the fantastic food, who would think a little town right on our doorstep like St Michele would have such a marvellous array of artisan food suppliers and high class restaurants and also what value. Italy is really getting into the Slow Food and Organic movements, I can’t eat in such a healthy and delicious way at home for double the price, and I defiantly can’t buy organic eggs directly from the farmer who produced them. What can beat a gin and tonic sitting outside, in the main square watching the passagata drinking in the local atmosphere, for the paltry sum of €3 (with complementary crisps and peanut). Wow indeed..... Now you know why we came to Puglia, fell in love, and bought our own little patch of paradise. Maybe we will see you again All the best Liz and all the gang

Dear Guest I am happy you had a great time at the Trulli, it is amazing how the Trulli stays cool even in the heat of August, that's why the walls are 2 meters thick, the ancestors who would have built the Trulli by hand with a hammer and chisel really understand how to build in stone. We love the outside shower too, it is great fun having a shower under a tree. Thank you for your suggestions on how we can improve things, I now have an electric pump for the pool toys. Many thanks Liz

Hi Many thanks for your lovely review. Most unfortunately the time you were there there was a huge storm which took out the main mast and destroyed much of the wi-fi signal in a wide area. The technicians worked night and day to get it restored as soon as they could. I am glad you had a great time at the Trulli Hope to see you back soon Liz

Thanks so much for the 5 stars, so glad you had a good time

Thank you for the 5 stars We have permanently moved your bench to your spot, it is now called the "Sundowner Spot" as you christened it .As you say it is the perfect spot to sit, relax and just watch the sun go down enjoying a beer. All the best Liz

Thank you so much for your wonderful review, I see you appreciate all the things we love about Puglia. I hope to see you again soon Liz

Hi I am so glad you had such a nice time, sometimes we " hang around" and forget that the busy world outside the property even exists. I agree the local food is fantastic, lovely inexpensive restaurants and fresh produce from the Markets, Yumm Liz
