| Distances |
The trullo is located in the Valle d'Itria in a quiet tranquil
country lane between the graceful 18th Century town of Martina
Franca (10km) known for its strong white wine and Baroque and Rococo
buildings, and the old Messapian town of Ceglie Messapica (5km).
Within a 30 minute drive you will also find Alberobello, most
beautiful and famous of the 'Trulli Town', now a national monument;
Locorotondo, a strikingly beautiful town famous for its white wine;
Ostuni, known as the 'Citta Bianca' (white town) which overlooks the
olive tree covered plain down to the coast. It is also well worth
the 45 minute drive to Castellana Grotte caves, possibly the most
exciting series of caverns in the whole of Italy. Slightly further
afield but equally worth a visit is the town of Lecce, referred to
as the 'Florence of the South', plus Castel del Monte, and Matera
with its 'sassi', ancient cave dwellings. |
| Local Information |
This part of Puglia is home of the "trulli", houses built of
stone with conical roofs which are unique to this area. Their
origins still remain a mystery. The unspoilt Pugliese landscape is
largely made up of vineyards, olive groves, fruit orchards and small
meticulously planted farms which together with the neat stone trulli
and low stone walls all combine to create the atmosphere of a
storybook. |
| Leisure Facilities |
The trullo is situated centrally between the Adriatic Coast and
the Ionian Coast and both can be reached within approximately 30km,
giving easy access to reputedly some of the best beaches in Italy |
