A traditional, authentic Trullo and a spacious modern villa for up to 12 guests set within a large garden with ancient olive trees in Puglia's idyllic Itria Valley, available to rent together for exclusive use or individually. Perfect for families, this child-friendly estate features an extra-large, fully fenced pool (10x10m) close to Puglia’s most beautiful historic towns and just 30 minutes from the coast.
Welcome to our peaceful oasis in the heart of Puglia. Trullo & Villa Fumarola is the ideal choice for extended families or groups of friends who want to holiday together while maintaining their independence. The two detached houses are completely self-sufficient and private, yet close enough to enjoy each other’s company.
Indoor Spaces & Layout
1) Villa
The entrance opens up to a wonderfully generous, open-plan space. At the center is an extendable, handmade oak table. To the right, you can access the well-equipped kitchen. In front of the table lies a vast lounge room featuring extra-large, cozy sofas and a smart TV mounted on one of the walls. The outside-facing wall of this room consists of a glazed door, making the space feel almost as if it is part of the lush garden, complete with its ancient olive trees and pool area.
To the left of the central open-plan area is the first bedroom with an ensuite bathroom, which is equipped with a very large walk-in shower with two shower heads (one of which a rain shower), two sinks, and a separate room with a WC and a bidet.
To the right of the open-plan area is a hallway providing access to bedrooms two and three, as well as a second bathroom equipped with a tub, a shower, a sink, a WC, and a bidet.
Villa Bedroom 1: Double bed 160 x 190 cm
Villa Bedroom 2: Double bed 150 x 200 cm
Villa Bedroom 3: Two double beds, each 160 x 200 cm
2) Trullo
The Trullo can be accessed via any of the three glazed entrance doors. Entering through the left door leads straight into a generous open-plan space that is flooded with light and showcases the architectural history of this beautifully restored property. This is quite unlike most traditional Trulli, which often tend to be dark and cramped.
Facing right, you will see a comfortable sofa facing a smart TV on the opposite wall, a dining table, and, towards the rear, a well-equipped contemporary kitchen.
Heading straight ahead, you will see two doors. The one on the left leads to the first bedroom, while the one on the right leads to a bathroom equipped with a large walk-in shower (with both rain and hand shower heads), a sink, a WC, and a bidet.
To the left is the second bedroom, which features two large built-in beds that can also be transformed into cozy sofas. This room has a fireplace and can be closed off by curtains made of heavy, double-lined linen.
Trullo Bedroom 1: Double bed 160 x 190 cm
Trullo Bedroom 2: Two large single beds (each 110 x 195 cm) which can be transformed into comfortable sofas.
Outdoor Living & Child Safety
The heart of the estate is the garden surrounding the swimming pool. Having raised our own children here, we know that parents' peace of mind is invaluable. That is why the entire pool area is protected by a safety fence. For dining, each house features its own private patio and barbecue for intimate meals, while a large communal table by the pool invites the whole group to gather for unforgettable dinners under the stars. The one-hectare grounds are filled with fruit trees, such as figs, walnuts, pears, apples, persimmons, plums and more.
Exploring Puglia
Our location is a perfect base for discovering the region's magic. In a few minutes by car, you can reach the UNESCO World Heritage Trulli of Alberobello, or explore the enchanting historic centers of Locorotondo, Cisternino, and the "White City" of Ostuni, to name just a few of our nearby sights. Matera and the stunning Baroque architecture of Lecce make wonderful day trips, and you are spoilt for choice with beautiful sandy beaches on both the Adriatic and Ionian coasts.
Our Hospitality Philosophy
Upon arrival, you will find a complimentary Welcome Kit packed with our personal insider recommendations—from authentic local restaurants for every budget and hidden beaches to the best vineyards for tasting local wines and olive oils. While we deeply respect your privacy and leave you to enjoy the estate in peace, we are always just a message away and more than happy to help make your Puglian holiday truly special.

We had a fantastic stay at the Casa and Trullo as a large family, the space was as pictured and a perfect base for the week to explore the local towns! The swimming pool is a particular highlight, large and clean! Hosts were very helpful with recommendations and responsive with queries - even helped us order a local takeaway pizza! Would recommend hiring a car to get to supermarket / local towns / restaurants.
