About this property

Stunning Trullo with A/C, Large Pool & Wi-Fi .5 bed's, 4 bath's

A beautiful traditional 'trullo' farmhouse, Casa Castagno is located in the picturesque Puglian countryside but the sea & sandy beaches of the Adriatic coast are within 30 minutes drive and the town of Alberobello is a short 10 minute drive away.
The house has been renovated and lovingly restored to a very high standard, preserving the conical roofed trulli unique to Puglia, but incorporating modern design which creates a stylish, spacious interior.
Casa Castagno has a spacious, stunning, fitted kitchen, lounge, five beds (3 en suite), all with air conditioning & five bathrooms - 4 in the main building and 1 in the pool house. Unlike so many renovated trulli which are cramped and dark Casa Castagno's rooms are light and spacious.
The limestone floors that run throughout the house extend to the shaded terrace which is perfect for outside dining or simply lying back in a recliner chair with a good book.
Set in an acre of grounds is the 12 x 6m salt water pool with a large pool terrace for sunbathing and surrounded by fields. There is a large sail shade on the pool terrace when the sun becomes too much or alternatively take the path leading to the shaded area under the chestnut tree; ideal for relaxing with a book or an after lunch snooze.


Special Celebrations: Casa Castagno is an ideal location for that special celebration. A highly experienced local team can provide you with a night to remember. They will set up and clear up. They provide the tables, linen, glasses, chairs, chef, waiters, wine, in fact everything you can think of is on offer leaving you to simply enjoy your special evening.
The terrace area can accommodate 30 guests and the kitchen size, layout and location make catering for this number of people hassle free.
Local minibus taxis can be arranged to deliver and return guests not staying at Casa Castagno from any of the nearby hotels in Alberobello.
See photo for table lay out and appearance.

Local Activities : Beaches
The nearest beaches to Casa Castagno (30 minute drive) are lidos along the Adriatic coast at Capitolo/Torre Carne - long, beautiful sandy beaches, safe for children.
Activities
Sports
Golf, horse riding, sailing, cycling, and fishing all within 40 mins. Tennis is available in Alberobello.
Health Spa
A health and beauty spa is situated only 5 minutes from the house at the Vicktor Country Hotel.
Local markets
Explore the delights of local markets and stroll around the stalls to savour the freshest fruit, herbs, vegetables and other local produce. Bargains of every kind can be found. Alberobello - Thursday morning; Martina Franca Wednesday morning; Locorotondo -Friday morning; Ostuni -Saturday morning
Other Sights include the caves at Castellana delle Grotte & the Zoo Safari Park

The nearby town of Alberobello: Alberobello (8km - 10 mins drive)
Alberobello is a UNESCO world heritage site because its collection of some 1,500 trulli in an urban environment is unique. The trullo is an architectural feature of Puglia, a dry stone building with a conical roof.
Alberobello is an enchanting, 'fairytale' town with many excellent restaurants featuring local dishes, bars and a 'passegiata' for summer strolling. There are also 'agriturismi' (delicious home grown produce) restaurants outside Alberobello and you can sample local produce in its wonderful market.
Many festivals take place in the summer: folk, classical and modern music; dance and theatre, as well as religious festivals with music performances and fireworks. Alberobello is the centre of an annual pilgrimage to the Basilica dedicated to the martyr saints Cosma and Damiano.

Fantastic Experience
A fantastic and seamless holiday experience for our family group of 11 - adults and young kids. Met en route by our hosts and followed them by car to the villa. Too easy. Nice welcome pack and excellent guest book with knowledgeable and spot on local tips - from restaurants and wine co-ops to sights and attractions. Spent our time day tripping then relaxing back at the villa in the afternoon / evening . Great pool kitchen barbecue. It’s hot in Puglia in summer but the trullo keeps the temperature down. We barely used the Ac. All up, great family holiday destination

Prachtig huis
Een prachtig huis met alle voorzieningen. Mooi groot zwembad. Het huis ligt 15 min rijden van alberobello midden in het land en een zee van rust om daar te verblijven. Je wordt netjes opgehaald en de eerste keer naar je verblijf gebracht en netjes ontvangen.werkelijk alles is aanwezig en het huis was heel schoon. WiFi is aanwezig maar alleen in het huis heb je verbinding en bij het zwembad niet, ook heb je geen vaste internet verbinding alleen met de WiFi, toch 1 klein minpuntje wij waren met 5 koppels en hadden ook het verblijf uitgekozenen voor 5 slaapkamers met 5 badkamers maar er zijn maar 4 badkamers. Maar toch een heerlijk verblijf gehad en volop genoten

Our extended family, ranging in age between 7 and 66, had a wonderful stay in this lovely property. From the swimming pool to the bedrooms, from the outside seating ( and shaded areas) to the extremely well equipped kitchen we cannot fault it in any way. Couple this with the rural quietness and the ease at driving to the nearest towns for food shopping, dining and culture it has proved to be a perfect property.

Idyllic
We have had the most glorious stay at Casa Castagno and it served our needs amazingly - never have we had such an amazing rental kitchen but car hire is essential due to the location which is a peaceful haven. We have become addicted to Primitivo and the Puglian life style …. But not the Italian driving !

Une maison magnifique dans la campagne italienne
Superbe séjour dans cette magnifique villa rénovée typique avec ses trullis ! La maison et l’extérieur sont largement suffisants pour 12 personnes, et la maison est tres bien équipée ! Il y a quelques petites choses à rénover encore mais c’est un détail. La partie piscine est très bien aussi ! Il faut par contre savoir que la maison est isolée et que vous aurez besoin de votre voiture pour tout, sauf pour une belle ballade en campagne ! Je recommande le site !

Great place for a family & friends get together.
Lovely rural setting amidst rolling hills & farms. Fantastic cheese farm 1km walk down the road. Kitchen set up enabled all in our group of 9 who wanted to cook up fabulous feasts using local produce found on our daily excursions. Outside terrace, dining area & pool were well used, especially our 1st week while the daylight lasted longer & temperatures were warmer. Screens on the windows (& doors), and maybe even some fly strips would have helped keep the flies outside rather than in; we created a new game of 'fly swatting Olympics' to try to keep the flies under control. Thank you for having a few fly swatters and food screen covers available to use to protect some of the food prepared. Puglia Perfect management group was extremely responsive when the oven was found to need repair on our arrival and when the electricity went out. Also for arranging our olive oil tour and cooking class with Lucrezia; we all found these informative and delicious. A little more instruction in the house information manual on how to use the thermostat to control the radiator heating would have been helpful (after the all day power outage it seemed the radiators were heating up during the day when not needed but not coming on at night which we wanted the 2nd week as the temperatures got cooler at night; also the pool lights were on in the day and not at night; this may have had something to do with the power outage affecting a timer?). This was one time Puglia Perfect was unable to help us figure this out. All in all we found Casa Castagno a great place for our group of 9 family & friends to enjoy each others' company, create great meals, take the cooking class arranged through Perfect Puglia and see the areas sights. A once in a lifetime dream come true for us.

Beautiful house
We had a wonderful time here, the house and pool are really lovely . What isn’t obvious from the photos is how peaceful it is, there are only a few properties nearby and no noise. The night sky is beautiful as there is no light pollution, total relaxation! The children loved the pool, we couldn’t get them out! The surrounding area is very interesting, some lovely towns close by, we particularly liked Alberobello and Locorotondo, beaches are great too. Perfect Puglia who look after the house are great, any little problem and they attend immediately. Our grandchildren are already asking when we can go back! Highly recommended

Perfect for extended family holiday with young children
An excellent place for a memorable extended family holiday. The generous sized pool is perfect for families. The gate between the main terrace and the pool area makes it a very safe location for families with young children. The wide steps and shallow end are ideal for young nervous children to just touch to bottom when necessary, the 12m length being good for adult exercise as well. The salt-water, rather than chlorine was kind on the children’s eyes. The buildings were cool during the unseasonably hot days and there was shade outside where we needed it. The countryside location is very peaceful and pretty. Alberobello, Martina Franca and Locorotundo are within easy reach to explore. A trip to the beach was also a very enjoyable day out. The UK owner is very attentive to email for any queries and the local management company is on hand and helpful in resolving any practical issues that may arise.

Fantastic villa with great amenities
We were 2 families staying in this wonderful property. Pre-visit service from the property was great - we booked pasta lessons and onsite massages, to enhance our holidays. Plenty of room for all of us. Kitchen well-equipped, pool was lovely, great outdoor space for relaxing and eating. The villa was about 15 mins from Alberobello. Would love to come back and explore more of this area.

Beautiful location in the countryside but within a few minutes drive of Alberobello and Martina Franca. Add 15 or 20 minutes and you reach most other towns and attractions.

Vackert öppet landskap. Rogivande och en bra bit utanför stan
Det fina är husets mysiga form, sköna sängar och gott om gemsam yta. Vi lagade middag hemma och åt lunch ute varje dag. Vi var 11personer, tre genationer på familjesemester första veckan i oktober. Det öppna landskapet och frisk luft var också härligt. Lite bök och stök med det praktiska, mycket myror och småkryp i det ena huset, vilket gjorde att vi behövde städa där varje dag. då bara slutstädning ingår så borde det finnas mer städutrustning, en hungrig katt som hängde utanför dörren, kallt i poolen, dåligt tryck på vattnet mm

Dream holiday home!
We stayed in June with another couple. The weather was sunny, hot and thunderstormy! The house is a very well equipped holiday home. If you want to self cater the kitchen has everything you will need. Do go up the road to the farm to buy local cheese and vegetables. Also, a must is to go to the Cooperative to buy local wine in plastic 5 litre oil bottles. You can even have fun trying the wines first. They are very good and dirt cheap. We found two supermarkets but Conad was the best. We slept extremely well in comfy beds and it was so quiet in the middle of the countryside waking up to the smell of jasmine outside our bedroom door. The pool was welcoming when we returned from a hot day of sight seeing and shopping in the local markets. Plenty big enough and with lots of shade if you find the sun too over powering. WiFi is brilliant throughout the whole of the house. So you can keep in touch with your friends and family and post your holiday photos!.

Beautiful house in a lovely rural location but close enough to all the sights. Perfect for families
We had a really wonderful time here. The house is big and beautiful with huge grounds and a large gated pool (which we tried out several times, despite it not being the weather for it!). Our group was made up of two families, withsix children aged between 11 and 2, and the space worked incredibly well for us (the barn and the main house are attached but operate as separate buildings). The house is very well equipped, Jeremy (the owner) is very responsive, and the team there is incredibly helpful if you have any issues. The rural location makes you feel like you’re in a very special spot, away from it all - but then you can get everything you need within 10 minutes’ drive. Plus there’s an incredibly friendly dairy farm just 600m away, where you can buy the most delicious cheeses and they might even give you a tour. All in all, a beautiful house in a beautiful spot, and I can’t recommend it highly enough.
