Overview
Stunningly situated in the picturesque landscapes of Puglia’s Itria Valley, Trullo Bernardo is an enchanting 5-bedroom villa nestled in an olive grove and promising an unforgettable escape for up to 12 guests.
The moment you step onto the grounds of this charming retreat, guests are greeted by the allure of its traditional Puglian architecture, blending seamlessly with the natural beauty of gardens and olive groves that surround it.
As you enter the villa, an expansive living area unfolds, bathed in the warm glow of natural light streaming through the large windows. The décor effortlessly combines rustic charm with modern elegance, creating a welcoming ambiance. Sink into plush sofas, and let the tranquillity of your surroundings wash over you.
Adjacent to the living space is the fully equipped kitchen, a haven for culinary enthusiasts who revel in the joy of preparing delectable meals.

The five bedrooms are spread across the villa, each uniquely appointed to offer a distinctive charm. While all distinct, each bedroom features a double bed, TV, AC, and ensuite bathroom with walk-in shower and bidet, ensuring every guest enjoys a taste of opulence in their quarters of relaxation. Picture yourself waking up to the gentle rustle of leaves in the olive grove, in a room bathed in the soft glow of the Italian sun.
Speaking of the Italian sun, let’s step outside into the villa's expansive grounds, where a private swimming pool glistens invitingly, urging you to cool off during the warm afternoons. An array of lounging areas are spotted about the garden and ensure Trullo Bernardo’s stunning grounds are never short of somewhere comfortable to sit down, slow down, and down a glass of Puglian wine. Alfresco dining spaces, and set the stage for memorable gatherings, whether it's a casual breakfast or a lively evening soirée.
Trullo Bernardo also boasts a Lamia, an old rural building recently renovated to include a stylish and comfortable bedroom. And a Trullo, an old, conical dry-stone structure that offers a unique experience of traditional Puglian life.
As day turns to night, the villa's charm only deepens. The terrace becomes an enchanting haven for stargazing, while the gentle breeze carries the scent of blooming flowers. It's a retreat that effortlessly blends the comforts of home with the allure of Puglia's natural wonders, promising an authentic and rejuvenating holiday experience for every guest fortunate enough to call it home, even if just for a while.

Location
About the surrounding area of Trullo BernardoTrullo Bernardo is ideally located in the heart of the Puglian countryside, not far to the lovely village of Francavilla Fontana and the stunning Parco Naturale Regionale Terra delle Gravine – known for its dramatic ravines, forests, wetlands, ponds, and wildlife.
Of course, Puglia is renowned for its stunning sea and warm, white-sand beaches. But, in fact, there isn’t just one sea – there’s two – the Adriatic and the Ionian. Trullo Bernardo’s position means both sections of Puglia’s coastline are within reach. Beaches on the Ionian side can be reached by a 30-minute drive from the villa, while the beaches on the Adratic side are a 50-minute drive away.
The coastal city of Taranto (30-minute drive) is a must visit. Walk the city walls, see the Aragonese castle, visit the Archeological Museum, and marvel at the Romanesque cathedral before enjoying some freshly caught sea food by the shore.

Kids
Best Suited For: All AgesTrullo Bernardo boasts its own sumptuous swimming pool and sprawling grounds for curious kids to explore, but the surrounding region also has a lot on offer for the little ones. With stunning Puglian beaches within a short driving distance, a day-trip to long stretches of white sand is always on the cards. Busier beaches closer to major towns offer a range of water sports too, such as paddle-boarding, kayaking, snorkelling etc.
The spectacular caves of Grotte di Castellana date back 90 million years and are one of Puglia’s best known wonders. With a network descending 60 metres underground, kids will marvel at hanging stalactites, ancient fossils and deep canyons.
Jonian Dolphin Conservation is another fantastic adventure that the kids will love. This award-winning marine research team takes groups on their catamaran to observe and protect the dolphins of the Ionian Sea.
The Puglian countryside is brimming with great options for hiking and cycling along nature trails – a great option to tire the little ones out. Another equally active option is a family fun day out at Acquapark Egnazia, with swimming pools and slides for kids of all ages. And lastly, Alberobello, a UNESCO World Heritage Site of Alberobello is known for its unique trulli houses.
