Trullo Sambuco

Pino and Francesca were dreaming of their own country house when they were charmed by the Itria Valley’s most authentic rural soul. They fell in love with its wild, uncontaminated and intact countryside, with over two hundred ancient olive trees protecting a silent ring of trulli and lamie which they then renovated, fully respecting both its original structure and the purity of the location.
An ancient Elder tree watches over the property, like an ancestral guardian. It is a plant which was considered to be sacred by archaic civilizations and was a panacea for a number of illnesses; it was a good omen for the Nordic peoples and the legendary tree of joy which attracted pure and positive energy.

Early in the summer, guests will have the chance to enjoy one of Francesca’s recipes, her famous elderflower sweet fritters, the making of which dates back to time immemorial.

The owners of this charming property are always happy to share their passions with guests: the many wonders nature has to offer, Pino’s bucolic paintings decorating the walls, Francesca’s loving restoration of her grandmother’s 150 year-old handmade bridal trousseau, all of which represent a transmigration of experiences and memories, becoming objects with a special place in one’s mind and heart.

Enjoy a pristine environment, life in the open and the sweetness of hospitality in a location which is also the perfect starting point to discover the richness offered by both the countryside and local gastronomy, ranging from the wholesome wild greens-based local cooking to the more sophisticated dining available in neighboring Ceglie Messapica, Apulia’s food capital.
Trullo Sambuco: an oasis for those wishing to escape from the city and choose a location to relax and inebriate the palate.
