Overview
Overlooking olive groves, rolling hills and vineyards, just 8km inland from the historic town of Monopoli and the nearest beaches, Trullo Riparo is a beautiful home in the perfect location. From your base at the villa, you are well-placed for exploring the countryside as well as spending time visiting towns such as Polignano a Mare and Alberobello.
The home sits in a vast, leafy garden which is further surrounded by 60 hectares of private meadows and lavender fields. This setting offers guests a serene oasis where you can immerse yourself in the natural surroundings and enjoy time away from the stresses of day-to-day life. The villa itself is made up of two, centuries-old Trullo buildings; these pretty, whitewashed buildings with cone-shaped roofs are only found in Puglia and blend seamlessly in the surrounding landscape. While the exteriors of the trulli have been preserved and look unchanged, the interiors have been carefully restored and updated by an experienced architect in order to maintain the charm and character of the building.
The welcoming home offers a living space with a large curved sofa, a cosy kitchen and two bedrooms. The master bedroom is light and airy and opens out on to the garden, there is a double bed, an en-suite bathroom and even an outdoor bathroom where you can shower or bathe al-fresco in the balmy evenings. There is also another spacious double bedroom with an en-suite bathroom. If you need to accommodate six guests, two people can sleep on the double sofa bed which is located on a mezzanine level.
In addition to the smaller kitchen within the home, there is a large, fully-equipped kitchen just outside on a covered terrace. The weather here is often wonderful, so you are sure to wish to make the most of your time outdoors! Next to the kitchen there is also a spacious, shaded dining terrace with an atmospheric fireplace for cosy evenings in the garden.
Outdoors you will also find a private swimming pool, seating areas and a vast garden filled with lawns, floral shrubbery and olive trees. The home is enveloped by a patchwork of fields and olive groves which lead out on to country trails where you can walk, hike or cycle. You could also enjoy the great outdoors by visiting a local vineyard or taking a trip to Savelletri’s famous golf courses which are 21km away by car.
The nearest major town to the villa is Monopoli; an ancient, coastal town which is 8km away. The town is a picturesque place which has everything you could need during your holiday. You will find historic attractions, shops, cafes, bars and restaurants lining the busy streets. In addition to the amenities, there are also gorgeous beaches such as Cala Porta Vecchia which is the main beach offering soft sand and clear waters. As well as Monopoli, guests can also visit the exclusive town of Polignano a Mare which is just 10km away and is a must visit location!
What you should know…
- The swimming pool is heated free of charge in July and August but varying costs apply for heating it during the rest of the year.
- There are two bedrooms available at Trullo Riparo, though the home can sleep six guests if you utilise the double sofa bed in the mezzanine area.

Location
About the surrounding area of Trullo RiparoTrullo Riparo is nestled within picture-perfect countryside, yet the beaches and towns of Monopoli and Polignano a Mare are both 10km away or less. From this idyllic setting you are perfectly placed for exploring the rural surroundings during the day, followed by dinner and a few drinks in one of the vibrant seaside towns in the evening. This is a wonderful place to stay for getting to know the authentic Puglia.
The home sits in a landscape of verdant rolling hills, olive groves and vineyards, the ideal location for a relaxed break with your nearest and dearest. Here you can start your day with a run through the surrounding country lanes or maybe just a gentle stroll amidst the vineyards, followed by a picnic in a scenic spot.
If you would like do a little shopping or wish to dine out in the evenings, why not head in to Monopoli which is the nearest large town to the home at 8km away. Monopoli is a fantastic town to have so close, it is not as busy as the neighbouring town of Polignano a Mare, yet it is packed with cultural attractions and amenities and lined by stunning beaches. The town offers a wide range of shops, cafes and restaurants, with everything from traditional trattorias to fine dining available.
As you wander around the pretty streets you will get a sense of the rich history of the town, which was initially an ancient Greek settlement. Pay a visit to the incredible Cattedrale Maria Santissima della Madia which is one of Italy’s oldest churches, inside you can see the ornate carvings and art works. You can also see the staggering 16th century castle known as Castello Carlo V. Built during occupation by the Spanish, this fascinating castle is still in great condition and is open to the public, here you can see the prison cells and towers, plus panoramic views from the top. In addition to the bustling town, you can also visit Monopoli’s beaches; there are an array of sandy coves, plus the brilliant main beach, the Cala Porta Vecchia. If you would like to try out some water sports or take a boat trip, both are available.
Just 10km away from the home, you can also visit Polignano a Mare. This must-visit location can get quite busy, so it is worth setting off early to secure a spot on the beaches, which are amongst the most photographed in the country. Cala Porto beach is the favourite, while Ponte dei Lapilli is equally inviting and less crowded. On top of the amazing beaches, the town has plenty to see and so such as museums, galleries and historic churches for you to discover. If you have an interest in poetry, or just fancy a walk around the old town, why not follow the poetry trail around the picturesque streets.
Another great thing to do when in Polignano a Mare is to see the beaches from the water by setting off on a boat tour. For a memorable day out, you could spend some time exploring Castellana Grotte which is 13km away. This is breath-taking system of caves is one of Puglia’s best-loved tourist attractions and as you enter the 90-million-year-old caves, you will understand why. Your guide will take you through the underground caves which are packed with fossils and cave formations.
While staying at Trullo Riparo, you may wish to see one of the area’s Trulli towns; towns which are filled with the quaint, whitewashed buildings with cone-shaped roofs. Alberobello is one of the best-preserved towns and is a mere 22km away from the home by car.

Idyllic location with a beautiful home
Idyllic location with a beautiful home, lovely grounds surrounded by olives and grapes. The pool was amazing and the outdoor shower and marble tub under the stars were dreamy. Very central to all the towns worth seeing in the area. Kind, supportive recommendations from hosts. The outdoor kitchen was life changing!

Stunning trullo
Stunning trullo within 15 mins of both Polignano a Mare and Monopoli. The most spectacular house I’ve ever stayed in. Pristinely clean, well stocked amenities and towels, and the kitchen and pool outside were so inviting that we never wanted to leave.

We loved our stay
We loved staying at the Trullo… so charming and fairly close to nearby historic villages. We’d tour in the morning and hang out at the lovely pool in the afternoon overlooking the fields. So peaceful and quiet. The attention to service was incredible as well. I’d highly recommend staying here!
-
A little slice of heaven!
A little slice of heaven! We loved our stay at the Trullo, it was unlike anywhere we’ve ever been. The hosts were incredible - so responsive and helpful with every need. They delivered fresh croissants every morning which were delicious. The house had everything we needed and more!

The home and property are truly a dream.
This was my families favorite rent we've stayed in yet! The home and property are truly a dream. So beautiful and peaceful. The interior is designed wonderfully, I loved the neutral pallet and natural materials. Each outdoor space is perfect for relaxing and enjoying the stunning nature views all around. Our family enjoyed lounging by the pool, cooking and eating meals in the outdoor kitchen space and our daughters had so much fun on the ground level trampoline. Upon arriving there was farm fresh eggs, bread, wine and water for us - plus warm croissants were delivered each morning. We would definitely recommend staying here and hope to return one day ourselves!
-
What an amazing vacation!
The trullo, the grounds, and the surrounding area were absolutely beautiful. So peaceful, so charming, so beautifully renovated. We felt immediately as if we had been welcomed into a breathtaking home, with so many thoughtful extras. The trullo was spotlessly clean. The linens and towels were all top quality.
All communications with Allison and Francesco were answered immediately. They were so very helpful. The fresh pastries delivered each morning were so delicious and such a treat! This is a magical place and we would return in a heartbeat!
What an amazing vacation!

What an amazing villa!! We had a brilliant week. It has the best pool of any rentals we have stayed in and the indoor jacuzzi was an added extra. Our daughter loved it!
