The fairytale charm of trulli in an independent house with a large garden between Alberobello and Monopoli.

Ideal for families up to four people, even with very young children (it’s equipped with pram, transportable car seat, camping bed, small play house and small play table with chairs), and suitable for pets (pet friendly), Trullimara is not just a holiday house or bed and breakfast in Puglia, but, welcoming and 'warm' as only your own home can be, it was our home for many holidays during the whole year and I hope that it becomes 'your home' for the next vacation. So I will be pleased to welcome you personally at the beginning of your holiday in Puglia and to bid you a fond farewell.

The house with trulli for rent consists of five rooms, three with trulli. Built during the 1800s in local stone (still entirely visible even inside), it underwent a complete renovation finally completed in 2017, performed by manually working the individual stones (called ‘chiancole’) which form the cones of the trulli: all in accordance with the ancient ‘mastri trullari’ technique.

Thanks to its very recent complete renovation and the presence of radiators in all the rooms, as well as a fully functioning fireplace in the dining room, Trullimara can be used in all seasons of the year.

The position of the house on gentle hills (about 350 meters above sea level) means that even midsummer evenings are never muggy, but rather are always fresh and pleasant. The distance from "Monopoli-Capitolo" coastline is about 17-18 km, through a beautiful road with several panoramic views of hills and sea and very light traffic even during holidays, while Alberobello, an acclaimed UNESCO World Heritage Site, is 15 km from the house.

Reviews

★★★★★ – Posizione strategica, trullo ristrutturato con cura, bella vacanza
Casa accogliente e proprietari deliziosi. Il trullo, ubicato in campagna, è stato ristrutturato con cura e rispetto delle tradizioni e si trova in una posizione strategica rispetto a tutte le località interessanti della zona. I proprietari sono stati molto disponibili e gentili, la sensazione è stata quella di essere accolti da amici. Vi ringraziamo per la bella vacanza. Loris Chieregatti (Italia), gennaio 2020
★★★★★ – Perfect peaceful place
Perfect peaceful place with perfect hosts in the middle of Apulia. We’d love to come again. Oliver Speer (Switzerland), october 2019
★★★★★ – Amazing experience, strongly recommended place, perfect hospitality
Mara and her husband were wonderful hosts. I was given many suggestions to improve our stay by visiting a few places around. Sleeping in a trullo itself was an amazing experience. The whole place has a lot of space outdoors, perfect for chilling in the afternoon. Inside, there are many amenities and accessories. I would recommend everyone experience this place and hospitality of Mara. I hope I will have a chance to come back soon. Kuba Feter (U.K.), september 2019
★★★★★ – Very comfortable and recommended house with numerous indoor and outdoor spaces
My family had a wonderful stay at Trullimara and had the pleasure of meeting Mara and Vittorio who ensured we had everything needed and felt like part of their family. The house is very comfortable and we enjoyed the numerous indoor and outdoor spaces. We appreciated everything that was available from cooking supplies to beach towels and more. The baby cot, stroller, and bassinet were particularly helpful! The location is wonderful and we enjoyed exploring the region - including visiting many of Mara’s recommendations. It was also nice to return to this peaceful setting to cook and relax. I highly recommend and hope we are able to return one day! Scott Hardingham (U.S.A.), july 2019
★★★★★ – Perfect accomodation, highly recommended
The house and the garden are magnificent, very well equipped, even nicer than on the pictures. Mara and her husband welcomed us very kindly. Everything was made to make us being well and comfortable. It is also very well located for visits. Laurence Petit (France), august 2019
★★★★★ – Contesto spettacolare, esperienza magica, sensazione meravigliosa, energia positiva
La sensazione meravigliosa che si ha è quella di essere ospitati in casa di amici, dall'accoglienza ai saluti di partenza. Trulli Mara è una casa a tutti gli effetti nata e cresciuta con tanto amore. Il contesto è spettacolare, giardino curatissimo e zone relax dove poter preparare aperitivi e cenette circondati da una natura incontaminata. L'interno della casa è arredato in modo funzionale e troverete a vostra disposizione tutto il necessario per il soggiorno esattamente come descritto nella presentazione e anche di più. Anche i nostri piccoli amici a quattro zampe sono stati accolti calorosamente. É stata un'esperienza magica che dovreste provare...il trullo sprigiona energia positiva che vi accompagnerà anche dopo la vacanza. Francesca Iorio (Italia), agosto 2019
★★★★★ – Incantevole, dotazione come da descrizione, ottima posizione
Siamo stati solo 2 notti ma i trulli di Mara e Vittorio possiamo dire sono bellissimi, un posto in piena natura ma vicino al paese di Castellana Grotte, a 15 minuti da Monopoli e 20 da Polignano a Mare , senza dimenticare Alberobello che è a 10 minuti. Oltre la vicinanza di posti stupendi il trullo ha tutto come descritto e l accoglienza dei proprietari non può essere delle migliori, una vacanza bellissima per la nostra famiglia, i bambini si sono divertiti tantissimo sia in casa che fuori nel giardino tutto recintato e anche il nostro cane ha apprezzato. Grazie mille ai proprietari ci piacerebbe tornare presto. Francesco Forzini (Italia), novembre 2019
★★★★★ – Geweldige ervaring/belevenis
Verblijven in een Trulli op deze locatie is een geweldige ervaring/belevenis. Trulli ligt op een mooie centrale locatie te midden van de olijfgaarden. Ligt wel afgelegen, maar de Trulli, mooi aangelegde tuin en uitzicht maken een fijn verblijf waard. Vanuit deze locatie zijn uitstapjes naar de omliggende dorpen en stadjes zeer goed te doen. Auto is een must en Navigatie is zeer aan te raden. De eigenaren hebben alles gedaan om ons een fijn vakantie gevoel te geven met echte Italiaanse gastvrijheid en waren ook goed bereikbaar. De trulli is zeer geschikt voor een gezin met 2 kinderen. Monique Oltmans (Nederland), juni 2019
★★★★★ – Villa perfetta per vacanze all’aera aperta e per chi ha bambini, fornita di tutto il necessario
La villa è tranquilla, piacevole e molto curata. Si trova in campagna, perfetta per vacanze rilassanti all'aria aperta e per chi ha bambini. Il mare è facilmente raggiungibile. Tutto è stato di nostro gradimento e secondo le aspettative. Il trullo è realmente fornito di tutto il necessario, lodevole in particolare il cesto di accoglienza al nostro arrivo, un pensiero veramente gentile. Le informazioni forniteci e la disponibilità dell'host sono state un valore aggiunto che ci ha permesso di personalizzare la nostra vacanza. Grazie. Roberto Galatà (Italia), agosto 2019
★★★★★ – Bellissima e rifinita casa con trulli e giardino, ottima ospitalità
Il posto ideale per rilassarsi, per visitare le tante località ed attrazioni che la zona offre e per godere di una bellissima casa con trulli e giardino annesso, rifinita in ogni dettaglio. Grazie Mara e Vittorio per l'ospitalità, contiamo di tornare a trovarvi. Linda Fiore (Italia), agosto 2019
★★★★★ – Posto incantevole, giardino meraviglioso, non potevamo trovare di meglio
Posto incantevole e rilassante con un giardino meraviglioso. Internamente c è tutto a disposizione . Proprietari molto gentili e disponibili. Grazie per averci accolti e di aver fatto trovare la casetta la frutta e le girandoline ai bimbi che sono rimasti contenti. Non potevamo trovare di meglio. Grazie❤ Vincenza Tella (Italia), novembre 2019
