Il complesso abitativo è frutto di una recentissima ristrutturazione di costruzioni dal valore storico (il Trullo Saraceno dalla caratteristica cupola bianca è ancora più antico del trullo a cono), in cui il sapiente recupero dei materiali, delle tecniche e dei canoni tipici dell’architettura e della storia pugliese, hanno consentito un restauro di interni ed esterni che mantenesse una linea fortemente evocativa e rispettosa dei luoghi, anche nell’arredamento dai colori chiari e naturali, studiati con la massima attenzione ai dettagli e costituito da pezzi unici e originali. Il fascino della location non conosce paragoni: la costruzione si affaccia su un giardino terrazzato caratterizzato dai tipici muretti a secco, oltre i quali si apre, a perdita d’occhio, su un’area di circa 6.000 mq di pertinenza esclusiva della casa, una valle di magnifici ulivi secolari su terra rossa. Un agrumeto, un frutteto, ampie aree di macchia mediterranea tra le quali trovano spazio molte piante ed erbe aromatiche, dischiudono immagini, in un tripudio di colori e profumi di natura incontaminata che illuminano gli occhi ed allietano la mente. l frutti e gli ortaggi tipici pugliesi, totalmente biologici, sono a disposizione degli ospiti. NOTA: Trullo Apulia promuove un uso sostenibile dell'energia elettrica e dell'acqua (presenti pannelli fotovoltaici e per riscaldare l'acqua sanitaria) e ci piacerebbe che anche i nostri ospiti facessero lo stesso. Per questo motivo non includiamo i consumi elettrici in maniera forfettaria nelle spese di affitto ma saranno conteggiati secondo il consumo effettivo che verificheremo insieme, confidando in un vostro uso responsabile (per il dettaglio, vedi la sezione "Altre cose da considerare").
