Our authentic trullo from the 18th century is situated in the picturesque Valle d’Itria in Apulia, close to Martina Franca. The exclusive lodge consists of two bedrooms, one living room, a bathroom with shower and toilet, another outdoor bathroom, a cooking and dining area on the vine-covered terrace overlooking our small vineyard and orchard, and a private swimming pool (in summer).

The space
Our trullo has two bedrooms, one living room, a bathroom with shower and toilet, an outdoor kitchen corner, and a vine-shaded terrace with a view over the vineyard.
It is situated in our small organic subsistence farm, which includes a small vineyard, a vegetable garden, fruit trees, a swimming pool, a BBQ, archery facilities, as well as chickens, cats and a dog. We welcome especially (but of course not only) families with children. We have a number of outdoor toys: a big trampoline, swings, and a boccia lane. And: there is no TV!
We firmly believe in zero miles products and sustainable living. Hence we grow most of our fruits and vegetables, make our own wine and olive oil, and use solar power.

During your stay

As an archaeologist and culinary historian, I offer workshops about historical cuisine. You can find the youtube channel where I present historical recipes under my name (Ursula Janssen).
Host Manoocher, a National Geographic contributing photographer, offers private photography classes.
If you like, why don't you visit my instagram account at @trullocicerone or my blog with the same name?
I would also like to recommend my novel "The Emir's Trace", which deals with an almost forgotten chapter of Apulian history.

We speak Italian, English, German, French, Spanish, Farsi, Turkish, and Azeri.
