About this property

RURAL RETREAT close to nature

Trullo Tranquillo is a romantic one bedroom stone trullo sleeps 2, nestling in 1.5 acres of fruit and nut trees in the heart of the beautiful and peaceful Puglian countryside. The perfect place to relax in the quiet surroundings.

The kitchenette is well equipped and the trullo has its own external wood-fired pizza oven with paddle. Enjoy the organic fruits of the trullo's land when in season.

Well located to visit the historic towns of Ceglie Messapica (8km), Martina Franca (12km), Locorotondo (19km), Ostuni (18km) and Alberobello (27km). Superb beaches with crystal clear waters can be reached in around 30 minutes.

Trullo Tranquillo is an easy drive from Brindisi Airport (50 mins) or Bari Airport (1hr 35 mins) which benefit from cheap flights with the budget airline operators.
Less than a ten minute walk from the trullo is the beautiful forest Pineta Ulmo where you can enjoy wonderful walks through the pines and summertime concerts and festivals.

An authentic trullo tastefully renovated to provide small, cozy accommodation

Loved the trullo which provided a good base for exploring the local countryside and major tourist attractions in the area. The trullo was reasonably well equipped for two, but any more would be very cramped.

Beautiful, rural trullo

We have just had a very relaxing stay in trullo tranquillo. It just wouldn't have been right to holiday in Puglia and not stay in a trullo......and this was a beautiful example. Well kitted out, with everything you need - the pizza oven especially, helped to make this an authentic experience. Set in 1 1/2 acres, the garden feels very private and is well stocked with fruit and nut trees. We enjoyed visiting the nearby towns - Ceglie, the nearest town, was full of character and characters(!) and everyone we came across was friendly and helpful. Thank you Sharon for allowing us to stay in your trullo and thank you to Claudia for all your help. I would recommend this property for anyone wanting a tranquil holiday!

Great place to spend some time to get away from it all!

We had a great stay at the trullo. The near by town was great for an evening drink with the locals all sat in the town square. Everyone was very friendly and helpful would stay again 😁

A beautiful quiet holiday home perfect for relaxation!

The Trullo is beautiful building surrounded by the Italian countryside. The property has all the modern features of a home in a great layout and set-up. The Pizza Oven was great fun to try out and the property is not too far from nearby towns. A sat-nav is a good idea as the roads and country lanes all do look quiet similar! Thank you Sharon for a lovely peaceful holiday.

About the host

Hosted by Sharon Teague

I am a graphic designer and artist based in Suffolk, England.
I love all things Italian and decided to purchase a holiday home in the beautiful Puglian countryside.

Why they chose this property

I holidayed in Trullo Tranquillo (then known as Trullo Oleandro) in June 2016. I fell in love with this gorgeous little trullo set in its tranquil land and purchased it mid August 2016.
I very much hope you enjoy your stay here too.
