The house

The white walls and pale stones of the trullo stand out against the red earth, framed by dry-stone walls.

A trullo with three cones and three lamie, the traditional stone and lime-washed home of Puglia, with every modern comfort. All around, more than a hectare of olive and fruit trees, real privacy and the quiet of the countryside, ten minutes from bars, restaurants and shops and less than thirty minutes from the beaches.

The garden

A garden that gives all year round

Fabienne and Gérard designed and planted it in the rural tradition of Puglia, so that it bears fruit season after season. Flowers mingle their scent with the fruit, and in the middle, the trullo's pale stones stand out against the green of the olive trees.

This is the garden we want to share with you.

Sotto la luna

And when the sun goes down

You stay cool inside the trullo through the heat of the day, then in the evening you climb up to the terrace to watch the sunset and the starry skies of Puglia, glass in hand.
