In the heart of authentic Puglia, surrounded by the timeless landscape of the Itria Valley, lies this unique property comprising two groups of authentic trulli, forming a charming small hamlet built in natural stone.
A truly special setting where history, nature and traditional Puglian architecture come together, creating a property with a distinctive character and an exceptional sense of place.
Dating back to the 19th century, the buildings retain the atmosphere and charm of traditional rural Puglian homes. The natural tones of the local stone, ranging from soft grey to brilliant white, enhance the characteristic shapes of the trulli and reflect the authentic architectural heritage of the region.
