Exclusive Stone Cottage with Trulli & Yurt: Your Private Paradise in Puglia
Welcome to your private retreat on a picturesque hill in the heart of the Valle dei Trulli. Surrounded by a vast plain of centuries-old olive trees, this historic, 130-square-meter stone farmhouse offers breathtaking 360-degree views.
The owner, an interior designer, has beautifully renovated the property with great attention to detail. The result is a unique atmosphere where traditional Apulian charm harmoniously blends with Eastern inspirations.

Outdoor Area & Wellness
