About this property

Luxurious Trullo with Large Pool + Garden. Great Location.

Trullo Fumarola is a wonderful place all year round which offers lots of things to do for the whole family. The pool (10 x 10 meters) is open from mid-April through October. The central garden and pool area are shared with the other house on the plot (a recently built Villa which sleeps 6-8 people). Garden, pool and pool area (with large shaded dining area) are very generously sized, in order to offer enough space to each party, in case both houses are occupied. The Trullo has its own outside dining area, BBQ and own outside space. We are confident we can recommend this property to anyone, including families with small children (our own kids grew up here). The property is a tranquil, safe and child-friendly environment, the pool is protected by a fence. The garden has a great variety of fruit and olive trees, some hundreds of years old.
The Trullo, built around 1820 by our ancestors, has been completely restored to the highest standard whilst keeping the original features, such as the floor made of ancient lime stone and the exposed arches. Unlike many Trulli it is very light and spacious. It has its own outside dining area, limestone-courtyard and private garden area with pine trees.
There are many attractions in the area: Lots of little towns with wonderful historical centers, Unesco heritage sites like Alberobello (just 15 minutes by car) and Matera, Lecce with its amazing baroque, lots of beaches on both coasts, countless typical restaurants for all budgets...Upon arrival you will find your complimentary Welcome Kit with useful information about the area, such as restaurants, places to see, things to do etc.
We have spent so much time exploring this enchanting area and love sharing our findings and insight with our guests. It is our absolute priority to make out guests' vacation here a truly special one. The houses are self-catering and accepting our guests' privacy is paramount. But in case you would like our help with anything at all, we will be more than happy to assist. Whether it's tips for restaurants, horseback riding for all levels, discovering the countryside by bike, picking your favorite beach out of hundreds of miles of coastline, exploring the before mentioned amazing towns and villages, learning all about local wines, olive oil and other local specialties...we could go on and on... Fact is you are spoilt for choice here and one vacation won't be enough to take it all in, so we will be delighted to help you plan your bespoke ideal vacation and make it a truly special one. This is how we intend our role as hosts. Looking forward to welcoming you!

Moderner Trullo
Wir haben einen schönen 10-tägigen Urlaub im Trullo genossen. Leider war das Wetter nicht ganz so gut, so dass wir den Pool nicht nutzen konnten. Aber im Trullo hat die Heizung wunderbar funktioniert. Die Lage des Trullo ist sehr gut - wir konnten viele tolle Dörfer mit dem Mietwagen erkunden. Bei Fragen haben Alessandro und Ina immer super schnell reagiert und geholfen. Vielen Dank!

Perfect location to explore local towns
Ina’s stunning home was the perfect place to explore the local towns that we love and Puglia. Communication with Ina prior to our arrival as well as during our time in her home was punctual and helpful. The home has the larger pool I’ve seen in a rental house. It was great. Ina and her husband Sandro hav created an unbelievable vacation home. Would definitely return!

Gorgeous trullo
The trullo is well kept and well equipped with all the necessities. It is very specious and elegant! I love that it has central heating which kept the trullo comfy and cozy at night. The property is very big with private parking and well maintained. Our host was very helpful and had great suggestions for restaurant and excursions! Would love to stay again especially if we come back during warmer months to enjoy the pool!

Live In A Beautiful Trullo.
We fell in love when we discovered it on Vrbo and more so when we first got there. I find it very much ideal for one couple of a couple with children. Well maintained property in every where. I wouldn’t hesitate staying there again.

A beautiful trullo in an amazing setting
We spent a week in this lovely trullo. A peaceful setting but only 10 minutes from Locorotondo that we visited many times for evenings out. The pool was fantastic - great size and plenty of room to laze around and soak up the sun. Our hosts were lovely and helped by making reservations at the beach and for pizza. Would love to go back and explore this unique area again.

Fantastic Place to Stay
If perfection is what you seek, look no further! Of the many, many places we have visited and stayed over the past number of years the Trullo House is, perhaps, the absolute best. What a delight it was to meet our hosts, Sandro and Ina, who welcomed us personally, made check-in and check-out so hassle-free and provided excellent guidance regarding the best places to visit in and round the local area. The house itself is beautiful, lovingly restored, spotlessly clean and well appointed. The outdoor patio area was quiet and private and we found ourselves wanting to spend as much time as possible simply lounging there in the warm sun! The pool is inviting and very well maintained, with lots of seating and magnificent views. The bed in the main bedroom is exceptionally comfortable (we did not use the beds in the second bedroom although they appeared of equal quality) and the kitchen was well equipped for cooking “in”. There is absolutely nothing that deserves less than a 10/10 (or higher) and we definitely plan to return, sooner rather than later.

A Peaceful Getaway
My wife & I really enjoyed our stay at Trullo Fumarola. The accomodation is spacious for two people, but i think a family of four would struggle being on top of one another. Overall it was clean, but lacking a little in cooking utensils. However the owners Ina & Sandro were only a telephone call away, and were more than accomodating in providing the odd items that we needed. They were also very informative on the area, and the welcome pack had all the information we required. I have to say I was a little daunted driving into Martin Franca, but thanks to the wonder of Google Maps, we navigated ourselves around the town quite comfortably. Overall we thoroughly enjoyed the area of Puglia and would recommend it to our friends. It made a wonderful break particularly in a difficult year with the outbreak of Coronavirus. We are very glad we percevered with the holiday. Martin & Jenny Sutton

Absolutely beautiful!
Just enjoyed the best week here. We are missing it already. The trullo is so beautiful and very spacious with all your needs catered for. It’s perfect for kids with toys provided, a play ground area and gated swimming pool. There’s loads of outside space too for them to run around and cherry trees to pick fresh cherries from - a real treat. We absolutely could not fault it and would love to return again soon!

Magnifique propriété dans une région de caractère, hôtes accueillants, disponibles et discrets
Le trullo correspond en tous points à la description donnée. Intérieur décoré avec beaucoup de goût, serviettes de bain en quantités, cuisine bien équipée, cheminées fonctionnelles, jardin spacieux et bien entretenu, grande et belle piscine (malheureusement un peu froide début octobre), balançoires et toboggan. Les hôtes Ina et Sandro étaient toujours disponibles et se sont démenés pour résoudre dans les meilleurs délais un problème d'accès à Internet indépendant de leur volonté. Ils avaient en outre préparé à notre arrivée tout le nécessaire au bien-être et au divertissement de nos deux enfants (lit bébé, chaise haute, jouets d'intérieur et d'extérieur). Les villages alentours sont enchanteurs et encore assez authentiques (en tout cas en dehors de la haute saison), la campagne est parsemée de trulli. La mer est à une demie heure de voiture. Les hôtes fournissent un document recensant leurs recommandations de lieux à visiter, restaurants, bars, épiceries, marchés etc., qui nous furent souvent bien utiles. En bref: une location à recommander sans réserve, où nous reviendrions volontiers.

Best child-friendly holiday yet!
We have just returned from a 5-night stay at Trullo Fumarola and can safely say we will be back. The trullo is beautiful, inside and out. It was very comfortable and well-equipped. It was great to find a lot of the basics there, such as tea, coffee, sugar, washing liquid etc. Furthermore, there was a bottle of delicious extra-virgin olive oil which I understand the owners produce themselves. I must confess to having used virtually the whole large bottle during our stay. The owners also left us a very nice bottle of red wine and some home-made biscuits, which were extremely welcome on our arrival. The trullo was very clean and well-maintained, exactly as it appeared in the pictures. The owners were very helpful and made themselves available to answer any queries, while not being intrusive. We were with our two-year-old son on this holiday. He had a fantastic time too. There is lots of space for little ones to run around and he really enjoyed using the slide and the swings. Ina had left a great big container of toys and cars for our son to play with, which he was delighted with. The pool was great too, and easily big enough to accommodate you and the guests from the other house. It is fenced off for safety and although the fence looks quite low in the pictures, it's not, and it would be virtually impossible for a small child to open the gates to get in there. This is probably the first holiday we have had where we have hardly eaten out at restaurants at all. The place is so beautiful that we were happy to cook and eat al fresco there, rather than go out. There is plenty of space to eat outside, including nice shaded areas with tables and chairs. A couple of nights, we joined forces with the family in the other house and had very sociable evenings sitting outside enjoying good food and wine. We did have a really excellent meal out at a place called Il Cortiletto in Speziale. It didn't look much from the outside but was definitely worth the drive (it was recommended by several of my brother's Italian friends). I would highly recommend the tagliatelle with courgette flowers. We would definitely recommend Trullo Fumarola to friends and family. In fact, my parents were staying nearby and came over one day for lunch, and were adamant that next time, they would be booking this.... Not if we get there first!

Tolles Feriendomizil. Alte Gebäudesubstanz mit sehr stilvoller, großzügiger und moderner Einrichtung. Vermieter sind extrem hilfsbereit dabei aber nicht aufdringlich. Die Lage ist sensationell. Sehr ruhig gelegen, viele Sehenswürdigkeiten in kurzer Fahrdistanz erreichbar. Im Frühsommer kann es nachts noch frisch werden. Heizung kann dann zu 20€/Tag genutzt werden. Pool ist nicht beheizt.

Beautiful accomodation, great location.
We travelled with 3 young children and even so had a relaxing holiday. The Trulli is situated in a beautiful, central location making it very easy to visit nearby towns and beaches. The accomodation itself is wonderful! Clean, beautiful decor, safe for children ,with lovely gardens for them to roam in. Ina and Sandro were very helpful ang gracious hosts. They helped us with recommendations on local restuarant, places to visit etc, all lovely. We were even greated with a bucket load of beach toys for our children when we mentioned we were off to the beach. We will definitely be back. Ina and Sandro, thank you for a wonderful stay.

A magical place in a magical region
In a region scattered with these beautiful buildings, it is hard to imagine stepping inside a Trullo as comfortable, stylish and lovingly restored as this. We loved every minute - even the autumn showers didn't dampen our spirits. What really made it was that Ina and Sandro were the perfect guides - and gave us some really valuable tips from where to buy the tastiest mozzarella and gelato, to where to feast on the best seafood in Italy. We fell head over heels in love with the region -in no small part thanks to Ina, Sandro & their special Trullo. We'll certainly be back. Book now - you won't regret it!

High-spec Trulli in a beautiful location
The property itself was spacious (in our case, 2 adults and 1 child), clean and well-equipped, in addition to a fabulous pool and well-maintained gardens offering a perfect location in Val D’Itria from which to explore the many pretty towns in the surrounding area, as well as providing easy access to the Adriatic coast and it’s numerous beaches and beach-clubs. For those travelling with younger children, It is also a short drive to the Zoo and the Aqua Park close by Fasano. The key thing for us is always the people we meet, and we felt that the owners were extremely generous, friendly and helpful and thoughtful, thus contributing immensely to an excellent holiday. Already recommended this and the adjacent villa to several friends and we hope to return at some point also!

About the host

Hosted by Sandro Fumarola

Host profile image
My wife, Ina, and I have been living in this wonderful area for several years now. I was born and raised in Martina Franca while Ina is originally from Munich (Germany). The Trullo and land have been in my family for seven generations (it was build by an ancestor). We have restored it very carefully, focusing on keeping its original features, such as the exposed stone arches and the century-old limestone on the floor. At the same time, we have built a new house on the land which we wanted to blend in with the local architecture without trying to look ancient. We have spent a lot of time exploring this enchanting region and love to share our findings and experience with people who come and visit us.

Why they chose this property

Trullo Fumarola offers Trullo Living at its best. Experience high quality finish with traditional features such as the original stone and arches. Enjoy all modern comforts and lots of light flooding in through the large glazed doors.
We truly go that extra mile to make your vacation special. Our guests love the property's location, because it's tranquil yet quite central and within easy reach of beautiful little towns and sights, seaside and lots of activities. And we know how important details are: Toys and equipment for babies and children, bathroom essentials, a well-equipped kitchen, our welcome brochure with lots of local insight into the area are just a few examples. As well as, of course, our continuous availability to assist you while you are on holiday.

What makes this property unique

Great Location. Airy, spacious Trullo with all comforts. Fenced Pool. Hosts' continuous availability to assist you. Bespoke activities.
