A lovely stay!
We had a lovely stay at the trullo. The house departmentalisation gives good room for private hours when staying in a big group. We loved especially the swimming pool and the village and area is beautiful and the welcoming neighbours. I hope we get a chance to come to Puglia again.

Perfect week
What a perfect week with family friends and extended family. Thank you for the use of this most comfortable and well equipped ‘home from home’!
-
Excellent
Fab stay in the Trullo and Puglia! Food, surroundings and experiences have all been excellent. Pasta making evening with Palma, (arranged by the owner) was a highlight!
-
Wonderful week
Family stay from 16 to 77 years old. A wonderful week with the family in this trullo ideally located to visit Puglia and very peaceful
-
Fabulous Trip!
We were three generations, ten people, celebrating our 50th Anniversary and we had a fabulous stay. The house is charming, rustic as expected of a converted farmhouse but with everything we needed. The jasmine was in full bloom when we arrived and will always be in my memory of Puglia. The central location made it easy to visit many of the lovely towns in the area with a short drive, and having the pool to come home to was great for the kids. The views from the roof deck are amazing, and San Marco is just a five minute walk away, with a well-stocked store and a cafe for morning coffee and pastries and afternoon gelato. Everyone was friendly and helpful. Dinner with Palma was a fun evening, and wine and olive oil tasting at Olimpia with Teresa is not to be missed.

Excellent location and well equipped holiday home
Such an interesting traditional, and yet, well equipped holiday home in a very good location. We were a multigenerational group, and the facilities were inclusive of all our needs - it is obvious the owners have experience of catering for young children, and the poolside kit plus beach towels etc. were really appreciated. San Marco and the local residents, family run shop and coffee bar were so friendly, and the local management team could not have done more to make our stay relaxed and enjoyable. Drivers ferried us around and shared local information, again ever smiling and with good humour. Given age of property condition of furnishing and bathrooms etc was perfectly acceptable, and met our needs.

Faultless
We loved the location, untouristic but everything we needed locally, shop, cafe and restaurant. The roof terrace and pool are excellent as are the villages and towns, within easy reach with bars, shops, restaurants and also the sea! Can't really fault it for a relaxing family holiday ... cool authentic trullo with comfy beds :)
-
Fabulous
As a large family of 11 people from 74 to 8 years old, this beautiful Trullo was the perfect house for us. Plenty of space for everyone, a fabulous pool and it was full of everything you may need. Just a short walk away from the local shops and cafe/bar. There are plenty of places to visit nearby, our favourite was Alberebello and its Trulli Quarter. A great time was had by all just wished we had stayed longer!

Already Planning a Return Visit!
This wonderful sensitively converted Trulli house was just right for our three generation family gathering of 11 people. The owners and local contact were all very helpful and did all they could to make our stay very comfortable.
San Marco is ideally situated for pretty Locorotondo, the beaches north and south of nearby Fasano, the beautiful towns of Martina Franca, Ostuni and Lecce and of course the UNESCO heritage site of Alberobello. We enjoyed walking through the adjoining cherry orchards, meeting the friendly farmers and of course lazing by the pool in peace and tranquility. The village shop is exceptionally well stocked and the owner is friendly and helpful. The outside pizza oven was easy to use and the children loved the results which were followed by watching the stunning sunsets from the roof terrace.
We couldn't recommend it highly enough and are already planning a return visit. -
Relaxing & Enjoyable
We have returned form a week in Trullo le Carrozze and we had a wonderful holiday. The villa was clean, well equipped and spacious. The location is in a quiet country village with lovely views and a short drive to lots of towns and beaches. The notes from the owner were very helpful in finding our way around. The local shop, 5 mins walk is well stocked and owners are friendly and helpful. The pool was available but too cold at this time of year though we did get to sit by it most days. Overall we had a relaxing and enjoyable stay.
Don't miss out! Reserve now and get a full refund if you change your mind within 48hrs.
