One of the most enjoyable experiences of visiting the Adriatic coast of Puglia is staying at the unique local 17th century dwelling, the trullo. Conical shaped trulli stay cool, usually in a rural setting, but not far from the sea. Our lodging was no exception. Just next to the property was our host Antonella's beautiful masseria where we took our breakfast, in the shade of lovely Pugliese pines. Antonella and her jovial enthusiasm was a nice addition to the ambiance of the property. She provided us with delicious breakfasts of local products and her homemade cakes, and gave us helpful directions and suggestions as well as reserving local restaurants. Our Trullo was quaint and comfortable with all the amenities of modern accommodations. What a great find!

There's no wifi, but we got access to internet through our phone plan.

We had already rented the Trullo apartment with kitchen and enjoyed so much this place and the surrounding area that we decided to stay a little longer so we moved to the smaller room next door since it was the only one available. This accommodation too did not disappoint, very private and super clean, nice sheets, lovely bathroom and decoration with small sitting area and I loved the open air shower with view. If you are looking for some quite spot where to enjoy some peace don’t hesitate to book. The host goes out of her way to please her guests, always with a smile and cooks the most delicious breakfast in her garden. Highly recommended.

Our "away from it all" holiday ended with 2 nights in Borgo Trulli which lived up to all expectations. Antonella was a fantastic hostess and memories of her Trulli and amazing old Masseria surrounded by beautiful fields/trees/wild flowers will sustain us during the hot summer days back home in Malta. We wish we had not wasted time visiting overcrowded Alberobello as we saw many more Trulli in their natural surroundings at Borgo Trulli and the area around. The nearby town of Cisternino is definitely worth a visit too.

There was nothing we didn't like

Antonella was very helpful with recommendations for towns to visit and restaurants. Just a couple of trulli rooms on a farm… a 15 min drive (on windy small roads) from a number of villages, and very close to the Valle d’Itria aqueduct for great cycling/walking.

The masseria was closed as it was September, which was disappointing, as we were expecting to have one dinner here during our stay to save driving. We would have like some coffee/tea making facilities. No wifi in or near rooms, and even data connection patchy, which made planning our days difficult.

We loved the location and the vibes of the property. The owner was super friendly and even upgraded us to a trullo. It is a 10 min walk to Ashram Bhole Baba which was perfect for us. Unfortunatelly we only stayed there one night, but we would love to stay longer.

It was cold inside the trullo, could be cleaner. Other than that, no complaints, it was perfect!

The location was remote but still easy to reach, making it a perfect spot for a relaxing getaway. The trulli itself was more than spacious enough, and the environment was so beautiful, like the perfect Italian postcard. Antonella is a lovely woman and was the perfect host. She gave us some more tips on what to visit in the area. A must visit for the perfect Italian getaway.

The only thing we regretted is not staying for more than one night.

What an absolutely wonderful place - we were upgraded to the apartment suite and Antonella is the picture of hospitality. She is so incredibly nice - if you didnt buy breakfast, it is 10 euros and is absolutely wonderful with coffee, fruit and traditional italian cakes. I wish we could stay longer - thank you, Antonella and the 3 lovely doggos!

Lovely quiet rural location right in the heart of trulli country. Antonella was a wonderful host along with her sweet dogs. Thank you for breakfast and the tour of your beautiful home. Sleeping in a trullo is something I have dreamed of since childhood and it lived up to expectations.

Antonella was an amazing host. The Trulli was very simple, lovely and warm and the breakfasts excellent.

We felt so safe. The whole atmosphere was amazing. It is so worth it to have breakfast as well and also have a look inside the big house. It is suitable for weddings and just a quick getaway. We are so much coming back

Everything was perfect
