Trullo in olive grove with amazing view, A/C and private pool – family friendly
Mandorleto is a beautiful, spacious (150m2) trullo flanked by traditional lamias and panoramic views of ancient olive groves and medieval towns perched on the hills of Valle d’Itria - a perfect holiday home for families with children of all ages. The 2 Ha (5 acres) private property with century-old olive trees, fruit trees, and local flora lies 5km from Ceglie Messapica, the gastronomic capital of Puglia with some of the best restaurants in the region. The location is peaceful, very private and only a 10-minute walk from Seppunisi farm where you can buy excellent burrata, local mozzarellas, cheeses and other fresh dairy products 7 days a week. The terrain is gently undulating with narrow, stone-wall country lanes winding through olive groves and gardens with picturesque houses & trulli, a beautiful area for early morning/evening walks.
Highlight is the swimming pool area overlooking our olive grove and surrounding countryside. There is a spacious terrace with 6 comfortable sun beds, 4 deck chairs and umbrellas. Here you can soak up the sun or relax in the shaded gazebo on warm summer afternoons. There is a large, stone dining table with 6 chairs that can comfortably seat 8 overlooking the pool and courtyard in front of the trullo, an ideal spot for both day and night entertainment.
Mandorleto was fully renovated in 2012 using traditional materials to create an authentic trullo experience with modern comforts! Small archways, hidden alcoves, and domed ceilings give a mystical ambiance that only a trullo can generate. All floors are made from ‘Trani’ marble, a honey coloured stone from local quarries. Windows have mosquito netting, traditional outer grills and shutters that can be left open at night to let in air. Walls up to 2m thick ensure that temperatures inside stay pleasantly cool during hot summer months.
Mandorleto can comfortably sleep 6. There are 3 bedrooms – 1 master bedroom with double-bed 2,10m x1,60m; 2 bedrooms with 2 single beds each 1,90m x 0,80m. All bedrooms have air conditioners (installed October 2025) and low-noise standing ventilators. A baby cot and high-chair can be provided upon request. There are 2 bathrooms with walk-in showers, bidet, toilet, and wash basin. The living room with 2 sofas, lounger and fireplace is located in the main trullo. The spacious kitchen is bright and fully equipped for gourmet cooking with a second large fridge to keep drinks cool. There is a dining table that comfortably seats 6, a small seating area next to a wood burner and double-doors leading to a spacious, shaded terrace with large stone table for outdoor dining. The BBQ area is next to the terrace, a laundry room with washer & dryer is behind the kitchen, there is free Wi-Fi with strong signal throughout the house and swimming pool area. A secure parking area for 2-3 cars is located on our property.

Beautiful, spacious and fabulous trullo in a very peaceful location. We had everything we needed during our stay, the beds were very comfortable and there were lots of places to socialise or find your own space (indoors and outdoors). Ceglie Messapica was a short drive away and offered lots of restaurants. Anthony was very welcoming and responded to any queries straight away. We would highly recommend this beautiful trullo. Thank you.

Very good welcome, efficient collection of keys and the best information book I’ve ever seen. Very comfortable and clean. Excellent views and sunsets from the roof
The Villa was a wonderful place to spend 10 days in June. Spacious and bright, with a lovely pool to dive into when the sun was shining. A fantastic base to explore the region from

We are very pleased you enjoyed your stay and that you appreciated the location of our trullo, only a short distance from the coast and many famous towns in Puglia. We enjoyed having you as our guests and hope to see you again when you come back to Puglia.
We could not be happier with the house and the pool. The views from the rooftops are staggering.The surrounding area is breathtaking with so many beautiful towns to visit and to have a fabulous farm shop in walking distance is heaven!Tgank you- we would love to come again
Lovely comfortable property, great pool and gardens
This house was comfortable and spacious, well equipped and pool was great! Outside shady area next to pool is good but needs an extra layer of bamboo do that you don’t get sunburnt through the shade. Lovely comfortable seating by the pool. Great location close to beautiful towns to visit - Martina Franca, Ostuni, Alberabello, Monopoli etc. Really good pizzeria in closest village but you need to book - lovely open air village square dining area.We loved the roof terraces with panoramic views.All in all a great holiday and lovely property - only improvement would have been aircon which would have been great when the temperature got to 43 degrees. The fans in each bedroom were good.

Dear Caroline and family, thank you very much for your kind review and we are very pleased you enjoyed your stay at our house and your holiday in Puglia. The summers can indeed become very warm and there will be times when ventilators in the bedrooms are not enough. We therefore decided to install air conditioners in all 3 bedrooms which was done last month! Thank you for your remark which helped us make up our minds. Kind regards, Robert & Ina
Unique stay in a traditional Trullo style house; plenty of room, with style and character. A spacious kitchen and a nice sized pool.
Situated about easy 10min drive from Ceglie Messapica town along a quite narrow but reasonably good road. A good base location to visit some of the towns in Val D’Itra

We are very pleased you liked your stay in our traditional trullo! We tried to stay true to traditional styles when we renovated our trullo without compromising on modern comforts. A spacious, bright kitchen where you enjoy preparing meals is one of many comforts you need for a relaxed holiday. And if you want to take a break from home cooking, Ceglie with its huge choice of restaurants is only a 10 minute drive away! Thank you for staying with us, Robert & Ina.
Mandorleto is a beautiful renovated trullo in a quiet area, surrounded by olive trees. The house is very nicely decorated and very clean. Lovely garden with various terraces and a swimmingpool with a marvellous view! Nice villages in the neighbourhood to visit as well as good Italian restaurants! We love it!

We are glad you had a wonderful time in Puglia and that you enjoyed your stay in our home. The surrounding area is beautiful and there is so much more to explore so maybe you will visit us again if you decide to return. Thank you for staying with us!
From the beginning, months before our stay, the communication was always easy and very usefull. We had been welcome by Anthony, who gave us many tips and suggestions of restaurants, attractions and things to do in the area.The trullo is very well equiped and lovely decorated. Our family enjoyed the garden, the pool and the terrace. During our stay it was very hot but unfortunately no air conditionner in the house, just fans in each bedrooms…It was still very hot and I would say that this is the only negative point.If you want to have the impression of being alone, cut off the world, this is the perfect spot! The city of Ceglie Messapica is lovely and very good restaurants!We would recommend this place to any one but you must have a car!

Dear Stéphanie and family, we are pleased you enjoyed your stay and that you appreciated the good communication we had from the start. Thank you for your review and pointing out what you think we should improve. We thought about installing air conditioners for some years now but couldn't decide if it was really necessary. Your review helped us make up our minds! Last month we installed air conditioners in all 3 bedrooms and think this was the right decision for our future guests. Thank you for helping us with this decision! Maybe you will come back sometime to test if you are happy with the result! Kind regards, Robert & Ina.
We have a truly wonderful stay. The house is exactly what we needed - spacious, clean, peaceful, practical and beautifully placed in the countryside.
It was fantastically helpful to be guided to the location by Hayley and Anthony (who are absolutely amazing).
Our two children (6 and 8) loved every minute, as did we.
Thank you!

When kids have a great time, the parents can relax and enjoy a well earned holiday! We are glad you liked our home & facilities and the beautiful surrounding countryside.
It is important for us that our guests get the best service we can offer, from the moment they book until the day they depart. This would never be possible without hosts like Hayley and Anthony who are truly amazing! Thank you very much for staying with us and hopefully until a next time. Robert & Ina.
We thouroughly recommend the villa. A great location out in the country and 10 mins from the Ceglie Messapica. Plenty of space in the Villa for the 5 of us and the facilities are excellent. The pool area was excellent and there are several eating areas. We used the barbeque a couple of times and for the other 6 nights visited local towns to eat. Very relaxing and great communication from the hosts. a big success....
We had a great vacation at the trullo. Robert provided excellent and detailed information about the house and surrounding area. Staying at the home provided an authentic feel of trullo-living with the benefits of modern amenities and a beautiful pool. My only suggestions are a few more fans and some roadwork on the bumpy local neighborhood road.

We are glad you enjoyed your holiday in Puglia and that you experienced an authentic feel of “trullo living” during your stay. Above all, we really appreciated your improvement suggestions and the time you spent to elaborate further after you returned home. We will definitely include ventilation in our ongoing improvement plans! The 100m stretch of country road from the street gate to our property may be a bit more challenging because we don’t own it, but we will see what we can do. Thank you for staying with us and we hope to welcome you again in future. Robert & Ina
Mandoroleto exceeded our expectations in every way.The house is spacious and attractive with something special in every room. We are a group who cooks and we have never had such a well equipped and well organized kitchen. We enjoyed the ripe persimmons.
Excellent information was provided to help us with the house and in our explorations, on foot and by car, of the area. We enjoyed our peaceful and fascinating stay immensely.

Thank you for your kind review Judith! We are glad you enjoyed your stay at our trullo and that you could make full use of our kitchen facilities to test your cooking skills. We are glad you enjoyed the persimmons and maybe someday you can return earlier in September to enjoy our grapes and figs as well!
We find it important to provide guests useful information before they arrive because there are so many wonderful things to do in our area and places to explore during their brief stay at our trullo. We are glad you found this information useful and that one day you will return to continue your exploration of beautiful Puglia!
Fabulous property, great location for a restful time, the region is stunning, un-spoilt and local towns are beautiful.
Food and wine was off the charts and so nice not to see The Red Lion or others of that ilk, just Italian through and through.
Both coasts are stunning, Matera and Alborobello were amazing as was most of what we saw.
The owners were very easy to deal with and the property hosts could not have been more accommodating if they had tried.
The nearby pizza restaurant in the hills was charming, the food was very good, the location lovely and the staff were amazing!!!
Overall a fantastic holiday, will be back in the future, could not recommend this place and region more highly!!

Peaceful, comfortable and a haven in Puglia
We were given a marvellous welcome pack by the owners of this wonderful Trullo and so we had all the information we needed at our fingertips. It is beautifully furnished and has so many corners to sit outside and enjoy the olive trees or relax poolside. Close to the many stunning Puglian villages and towns like Cisternino and Alberobello and within striking distance of the sea. So there is the opportunity to relax at the Trullo or to marvel at wonderful sights . It made for an unforgettable holiday and we returned totally refreshed to UK.
Thank you to the owners who have created such a haven.

I am glad that our information pack we sent you prior to your arrival was appreciated and useful. It is great to hear that your stay at Trullo Mandorleto was memorable and that you returned to the UK totally refreshed. We hope to welcome you and your family as our guests again should you consider visiting Puglia a third time!
Kind regards,
Robert & Ina
The checking in and information pre holiday was superb and we knew exactly what to expect. The Trulli are split so one end has two bedrooms and a bathroom while the other end has another bedroom and bathroom. That was great for us as for our daughter and son in law could then have some privacy. The pool was wonderful and with temperatures often mid 30's it was lovely to cool down or just have an early morning swim There is a bar b q and one of the Ceglie supermarkets has fresh fish and gave us appropriate fish to cook. It's not a very touristy part which is nice.

Dear Deborah, the pool is indeed the place to be when it gets warm! The cooling breeze and beautiful views makes this the best spot on our property. We are glad you liked the layout of the trullo and that you made use of our BBQ to cook fresh fish from the fish monger in Ceglie. Ceglie is indeed famous for its gastronomy, especially the Seppunisi dairy farm down the road for cheese, fresh mozzarella and burrata, a specialty of the region! We are also glad you appreciated the info pack we sent about the property and region before you arrived. We find it important that our guests are well informed and receive our full support from the moment they book until the day they depart. Thank you for your kind review and we hope to see you again in future. Robert & Ina.

Beautiful well-equipped comfortable retreat
We were enchanted with the beauty and comfort of this property, tastefully remodeled from several trulli into a picturesque vacation home. Complete with lovely garden, fruit trees and swimming pool with a lovely view of the countryside, Mandorleto is tastefully furnished with modern furniture and antiques. The bathrooms are great, and we loved cooking in the big kitchen. The complimentary olive oil from the property was a real treat!
We did a lot of driving all around the area to see Ostuni, the ocean, Matera, Ceglie Messapica and even Lecce. Because the house is located in a warren of narrow country lanes, it would work better as a place to stay and vacation rather than drive around. We tended to eat lunch in whatever town we were visiting for the day, and then cook dinner in the trullo, rather than drive out again to nearby towns.

We are glad you liked our home and that you made good use of our big kitchen for your home cooked meals with a dash of Mandorleto olive oil! Thank you for choosing Trullo Mandorleto to explore the beautiful towns and countryside in our piece of Puglia.
This property was truly amazing, in every sense of the word. The information booklet sent in advance was very useful and told us so much about the area, which places were best to visit and some of the best places to eat.
Hayley and Anthony, who met us and showed us round the wonderful Trullo, were very friendly and helpful. Nothing was too much trouble for them. The pool was enjoyed by everyone, especially the children. Our favourite restaurant was Vino fritti e Cucina in Ceglie, but we also enjoyed Pizzeria in Pescarosa, being fairly close to the Trullo. Our favourite place that we visited was Alberobello, and we loved the beaches on the Adriatic coast. It was a wonderful holiday with many happy memories for my brothers 40th birthday. You have a fantastic home Robert and Ina. Thank you.

Quiet seclusion
We are a family of 5 and have recently (start of August) spent a week in this lovely villa. It is very spacious inside and surprisingly cool considering there is no A/C. At night, we utilised the electric fans in each bedroom which were very welcome. Externally, the good sized pool was a real hit with our boys and, being in a raised position, we were afforded lovely distant views and a cooling breeze. There are no immediate neighbours and the sense of seclusion is very apparent - a real 'get away from it all'. Our boys enjoyed the 2.5km jog through the quiet local lanes as outlined in the information booklet. We ventured into Ceglie at night but we particularly liked Martina Franca and Ostuni; both had a class about them with a very good selection of restaurants. We liked the fact that the whole area is not very touristy so we had to practise our limited Italian more often than not. Beach-wise, we loved Monticelli and it's brilliant waves and cool 'White Beach' club (although a bit pricey). The only minor complaint about our whole stay would be that the drawers in some of the rooms were quite dusty and we had to lay a towel down before placing our clothes inside. We would gladly recommend the property however.

Dear Colin & Jo,
Thank you so much for your kind feedback! We are pleased to hear that you and your family enjoyed your stay at Trullo Mandorleto and the many activities and sights in the surrounding area. We are indeed fortunate our trullo lies on a hill with beautiful views of the countryside and where there is always a breeze during the hot summer months to keep temperatures pleasant during the day and night.
Thank you for bringing to our attention the dust problem in some of our drawers. We are sorry about this and we have informed our cleaners to be more thorough when they clean the house. Your remark will help us make continuous improvements for future guests for which we are grateful.
It was a pleasure having you as our guest and we hope you will visit us again in future.
Kind regards,

As a true Puglia lover, I was on the hunt for a property which could cater to my family as I wanted to share the beauty of the region with them and Trullo Mandoreto exceeded our expectations.
Ceglie Messapica is my preferred location in Puglia and this property is in the perfect location, only a short drive from the town but still amongst the beautiful olive groves and near to the local farmshop Masseria Sepunisi which was amazing for cheese, yoghurts and ham.
The trullo itself was brilliant and allowed my family to have the most wonderful holiday. Robert and Ina have created a beautiful home which allows you to relax whilst enjoying the magnificent pool, views and BBQ. We particularly enjoyed how there were many seating locations which gave everyone enough space. The trullo was beautifully clean and comfortable and was the perfect setup for 6 adults sharing. We spent many nights having wonderful BBQs and watching the sunset.
We highly recommend the local pizzeria which was recommended to us by the lovely Hayley and we also dined at Osteria Pugliese for a very laidback dinner as well as our usual favourite Da Frano and Relax. Special shout out to Il Brillo Parlante on Centro Storico in Ceglie Messapica which is a beautiful bar/restaurant in a historic square.
Thank you so much to Robert and Ina (and Hayley!) who made our experience of staying here perfect. They are the best hosts I have ever experienced and my family are keen to return.
Thank you again!

Ein traumhafter Urlaub in ApulienWir hatten einen wunderschönen Urlaub in Apulien! Das Haus ist ein absoluter Traum – hochwertig eingerichtet, geschmackvoll dekoriert und mit viel Liebe zum Detail gestaltet. Besonders beeindruckt hat uns der herrliche Pool und der fantastische Blick – einfach alles hat gestimmt.Zugegeben, bei der Ankunft waren wir zunächst etwas überrascht von der sehr abgeschiedenen Lage. Doch schon am nächsten Tag hat sich dieses Gefühl vollkommen gewandelt. Die Ruhe, die Natur und die Umgebung haben uns schnell verzaubert, und wir haben uns vom ersten Moment an sehr, sehr wohlgefühlt.Auch der Empfang war äußerst freundlich, was den positiven Gesamteindruck noch unterstrichen hat. Die Umgebung ist wunderschön – wir haben viel entdeckt und erlebt, und dennoch blieb genug Zeit zum Entspannen.Wir würden jederzeit wieder unseren Urlaub hier verbringen.

Wir freuen uns, dass es Ihnen gefallen hat! Wenn man das erste Mal durch die engen, mit Steinmauern gesäumten Landstraßen zu unserem Trullo fährt, hat man tatsächlich das Gefühl, am Ende der Welt zu landen. Das ist das Schöne an unserer Lage - mitten in der Natur und sehr privat, mit wunderschöner Aussicht auf die Landschaft und dennoch sind Sie nicht allein zwischen den benachbarten Olivenhainen mit kleinen Trulli! Der perfekte Ort zum Entspannen mit Freunden und Familie. Es war uns eine Ehre, Sie als unseren Gast begrüßen zu dürfen und wir hoffen, dass Sie in Zukunft wiederkommen, Robert & Ina.
Wunderschönes Feriendomizil. Haben den Aufenthalt sehr genossen. Sehr gute Einführung und Betreuung durch Anthony. Sauber, gut gepflegt, Waschmaschine und Trockner funktionieren und Pool sehr sauber.

Wir freuen uns sehr, dass Sie Ihren Aufenthalt in unserem Trullo genossen haben! Wir haben bisher noch keine Beschwerden über unsere Matratzen erhalten, aber vielleicht wäre es eine gute Idee, einen Topper bereitzuhalten, falls ein Gast einen wünscht. Ja, die Straßen in Süditalien können ziemlich anspruchsvoll sein, aber irgendwie gehören sie zu dieser wunderschönen Region!
Wat een prachtig huis op een magische plek! Zoveel ruimte in- en om het huis. Fantastisch! Het zwembad was ook heerlijk! We hebben ontzettend genoten van het verblijf in dit bijzondere huis. Een tip ter verbetering:
Een airco in de slaapkamers zou het verblijf nóg geweldiger maken.
Mooi huis, alle comfort aanwezig. Ruim voor 4 volwassenen, mooie tuin met zwembad en verscheidene terrassen. Wat afgelegen maar hierdoor heel rustig. Wij genoten ervan!

About the host
Hosted by Robert and Ina
Robert and Ina are proud owners of Trullo Mandorleto since 2010. After traveling around the world for many years we finally found our piece of paradise in Puglia that we want to share with other travellers seeking relaxation amongst olive trees and everything else this beautiful region has to offer.
Why they chose this property
We immediately fell in love with Puglia during our first visit in 2010. The color contrast of green olive trees, dark red soil and azure blue sky was spectacular. Ceglie Messapica, known locally as ‘città della gastronomia’ for its excellent cuisine, is perched on a hill and surrounded by ancient olive groves and medieval towns, an ideal location for a trullo holiday home. There are over 60 excellent restaurants serving local dishes at affordable prices within a 10 minute drive and nearby famous towns like Alberobello, Ostuni and Martina Franca as well as beautiful clean beaches, all less than a 30 minute away.
What makes this property unique
Mandorleto with its 3-cone trullo, ‘lamias’ and Mediterranean garden, perched on a hill 300m above sea level, is the home away from home we fell in love with. The 2 Ha (5 acres) property with century-old olive trees, almond trees and local flora is very private and peaceful. The swimming pool with spectacular views of Valle d’Itria, summer breeze and sound of crickets is the place to be on warm summer days and at night when the stars and milky way seem to be within arm’s reach.
