Karen & Michael - Villa Perego (October 2021)
Experience true tranquillity at one of Relax Puglia’s ‘Home for Holidays’ in the southernmost region of Italy. Puglia has attracted engaged couples and honeymooners for many centuries, due to its stunning landscapes, pristine coastline, sleepy hilltop towns and slow pace of life. The region has the sensation that time has stood still, and that’s all you could wish for during your holiday with close friends and family.
Relax Puglia provides a range of additional services to make your stay more relaxed, comfortable and enjoyable. On your arrival, we can arrange for a food basket to be waiting for you together with a selection of local wines. Why not spoil yourselves with your own, in-house local chef, or a luxurious massage in the comfort of your villa. We have a wide range of tours and activities to choose from and we can provide transfers and taxis to help you get around.
The Dolce Vita is from coast to coast; from the Adriatic to the Ionian, between Otranto and Gallipoli. If you wish to discover the key to local artisan excellence, include a stopover in one or more of the hamlets and villages that trip along the coastline, topple on the summits of hilltops or make a splash in to the small bays and lagoons.
A selection of articles that explore the region of Puglia: its wonderful countryside and coastline, its rich history, its fascinating culture, its delicious food and wine and, of course, its warm and welcoming people...
Trullo Siamese – where modern comforts live in harmony with nature and tradition.
A newly constructed trullo property reflecting the historic purpose and custom of the original “trullo” buildings – located strategically between the four market towns of the Valle d’Itria – Ostuni, Martina Franca, Ceglie Messapica and Cisternino – within 8 hectares of private grounds.
Features
Stone buildings 2 independent and self-contained units 8 hectares of private grounds Security alarm system Wi-fi in both trulli Working fireplace for winter 12 x 6 metre salt based swimming pool (with safety pool cover) Blu-ray TV, DVD and music system Irrigated green lawns Washing machine Dishwasher BBQ
Family & Friends
Trullo Siamese is ideal for six people – two couples with their own independent accommodation or a young family with two children, travelling with friends or grandparents, wishing to holiday together but with the benefit of their own private space.
The trullo Interiors
The property is comprised of two independent units, sleeping 4 and 2 respectively, each self-contained with kitchen and bath/shower room.
1 – The larger of the units, the principal trullo sleeps 4, made up of six cones, one of which has an expressive truncated top with a round hole; many years ago this would have been covered with a movable circular slab, to access grain, hay or straw stored inside. (Today it serves to give additional light and ventilation).
The trullo is comprised as follows: the main entrance leads to an open plan living area with working fireplace, dining for 6 and kitchen plus two bedrooms, a double & a twin, each with built-in wardrobes and drawer units, guests share a bathroom.
2 – The second trullo accommodation, ideal for two (a child’s cot may be added) has conjoined (Siamese) trulli cones with a wooden mezzanine created within the conical roof above the beams. Once upon a time, this would have been used to hide family belongings & possessions or as it has been suggested, even secret admirers!
The trullo accommodation is spacious and comfortable for two adults. The Siamese trulli have been adapted to accommodate a double bed, built-in wardrobe with kitchen corner, shower room and dining/seating area. With a log stove, ideal for cosy winter nights.
The Trullo Exteriors
The adjoining trullo accommodations with their conical roofs are accessible by an outside stairway built into the roof, which you can also see on the façade of the second trullo.
Traditionally, atop of the trullo you would find the stonemason’s signature, a handmade sand stone pinnacle which could be a disk, ball, cone, bowl, polyhedron, or a combination thereof. If you look closely at the photos you will be able to see the pinnacles of Trullo Siamese.
Surrounding the trullo there are 8 hectares of olive orchards, shrubland and a variety of fruit trees. The grounds immediately surrounding the trullo have been laid with grass and Mediterranean plants and shrubs.
**Within the grounds of Trullo Siamese there is also a modernly styled farmhouse which is unoccupied during any period that guests are in residence at the Trullo Siamese.
The infinity swimming pool – salt based – 12 x 6 metres with a maximum depth of 2.4 metres – is detached from the trullo property and behind the farmhouse. For the safety and protection of guests, there is an automated fabric pool cover available.
Comfortable sun loungers for all the guests and umbrellas by the poolside.
For guests convenience, there are two showers available, one solar power driven and external, and a second shower room with toilet facilities.
