Located in the Itria Valley near LOCOROTONDO (NOT NOCI!) , Trullo San Marco is a delightful, recently restored traditional trulli farmhouse with a private pool, sleeping up to 12 people in 4/7 bedrooms. A magical property with the most amazing views over open countryside to the sea, it is on the edge of the little village of San Marco and also near fascinating old towns with good restaurants and only 20 minutes from the sea. Providing a perfect solution for two families or a larger family or group, this is an unusual villa as although it is a seven coned trullo, its main living room is a large converted coach-house with a high barrel ceiling so it is spacious without having modern additions. All the original features have been preserved, but it is also well equipped with mod cons. This lovely villa is situated just a few minutes' walk from a small village in the countryside where you can buy everything you need including delicious local produce and fresh bread from a wood oven. Next door to the shop, opposite a mediaeval chapel, is an authentic little bar/cafe with snacks and ice creams at ridiculously cheap prices. Trullo San Marco is also near the small town of Locorotondo (officially listed as 'one of the most beautiful in Italy' and Alex 'Secret Italy' Polizzi's favourite place in Puglia) and within short driving distance of many of Puglia's prettiest little hill towns like Cisternino, Ostuni, Martina Franca and the Trullo town of Alberobello. BTW it is near Locorotondo not Noci and is in a very rural area NOT a metropolitan area at all!
What a Great Place!
By David C. on 10-Sep-2016
We had a fantastic family holiday in this beautiful house in a great region new to us. There were four couples aged 29 to 63 and all relaxing for a week. The pool was fantastic and the views sublime. It got stormy later in the week (the lightening was rather exciting) but that gave us a chance to visit the spectacular towns in the region and take advantage of all the culinary specialities. Everything was just great and the advice on what to see and do from the owner was really useful.
Just Lovely
By Kate H on 12-Jun-2016
We (a family of 5 - kids 12, 9 and 7) treated ourselves to this very special holiday over the May half term 2016. Right from the start the owner was attentive and helpful providing lots of information on the villa and on the local area, responding very quickly to emails we sent asking for their advice. On arrival we were met by the local agent who was also friendly and helpful. The villa itself I couldn't fault, very well equipped, clean and tidy with lovely, homely decor. The pool also is great - just the right size for us - the kids were in it most of the time having such fun. We concluded that the end of May is a good time to go for us - the weather was great but not too hot, the local area is rich in flora and fauna - there's so much to see - and the most magical smell of jasmine and honeysuckle filled the air in the garden, accompanied by the sound of bees. Locorotondo and the surrounding area offers loads to do. We were not short of places to visit with mornings spent mooching around a local town or city ( Ostuni, Monopoli, or the caves at Castellana Grotte) and then in the afternoon exploring the coast - great for snorkelling with the kids in the shallow clear,calm waters of the Adriatic - particularly lovely at Polignano a Mare. The locals, too, were all very friendly and helpful and welcomed our attempts at Italian, filling in when we were out of our depth. We spent most of our money in the local shop with its lovely cheeses, meats and local products. This is a place we'd love to come back to and to bring more of the family to enjoy.
A Trulli Sumptuous Taste of Italy
By M.C. on 18-Aug-2015
We spent two weeks at this beautiful trulli and would love to return. Two families went and in total there were nine of us. This part of Italy is stunning with fantastic weather and numerous whitewashed towns. The trulli itself is in a village called San Marco which is a small and quiet agricultural, working village in the region of Puglia. The trulli is full of character with many original features. When we arrived, the English property manager showed us around and was very friendly and helpful offering advice about local places we could visit etc. There was plenty of space in the trulli for all of us and was very well equipped, inside (board games, wi-fi, TVs, books etc) and outside (sun loungers, umbrellas, inflatables, outside shower etc) The trulli has a roof terrace which has gorgeous views and the outside dining area is sheltered with a bbq and outside sink. There is a local shop with very friendly and helpful owners. It is less than a five minute walk from the trulli. You can get everything you need there from local cheeses and meats to washing powder and alcohol! There are many local towns which are definitely worth a visit; Alberobello which has many trullis and is a UNESCO world heritage site, Locorotondo, a beautiful historic town with a labyrinth of white alleys, Martina Franca, another beautiful old town surrounded by stone walls with lots of piazzas and narrow, winding streets and Ostuni, built on top of a hill and commonly referred to as "the White Town" ("La Città Bianca") for its white walls and its typically white-painted architecture. Another place worth visiting are the Castellana caves where you can go on a guided tour of the caves. We also visited a local water park called Acqua Splash which was close to Alberobello and was perfect for the age range of children we had (5-10 years). All of these places are close to the trulli and can be reached by car in under half an hour or so. If you can bear to tear yourself away from the peaceful poolside, there are many beautiful beaches too. The food was amazing and we ate out at many fine restaurants. The owners have helpfully left notes in the trulli detailing local restaurants and places to visit. This trulli is to be highly recommended and is home from home. It was our first visit to Italy and has definitely given us a taste and we wouldn't hesitate to return!
Italian Paradise
By Chris B on 27-May-2014
My wife and I and our two girls spent a glorious week at this beautiful trullo. The secluded peaceful location was just what we needed to unwind before the arrival of our third child. The girls would have spent the whole week in the swimming pool if they could but we managed to convince them to try one of the amazing beach locations for the day which we all enjoyed, padding in the sea and collecting shells. Even though we don't speak Italian we always found somewhere to eat or drink with a waiter or waitress happy to use their English skills. We would love to return one day to explore the coast line some more and indulge in the fresh sea food and lovely fine wine which we sampled only a small amount! Another outing we would recommend is the Zoo Park, a fun packed day which is fabulous for anyone with or without children. We found ourselves shopping at the local shop just a walk away for our supplies (wine, beer, ice cream etc.) and enjoyed some fantastic sunset dinners in the pergola area. Anyone who visits this part of the world and stays in this home from home will book again I am sure.

Fantastic Trullo
By Peter H on 21-May-2014
Fantastic trullo
This was an ideal holiday for us - the trullo easily fitted our two families with separate bathrooms and kitchens and it was all impeccable when we arrived. The kids spent most of the time in the pool which was very clean and well maintained. The pool looks out over the countryside at the edge of the village and you get even better views from the roof terrrace, which also has a separate ensuite double room. The trullo - actually eight trulli combined into one - is very beautiful and tastefully decorated, but it has a real family feel. The village has its own shop and bar, and everyone we met was very friendly. There are some lovely towns nearby with some outstanding restaurants and the beaches are a short drive away. Altogether a fantastic holiday home. We can't wait to go back!

We had a big family holiday at the Trullo San Marco with my wife’s family – grandmother, parents, sister+fiancé and our three boys. There was plenty of room for all of us in this beautifully restored old house which is hidden away in a very peaceful setting. We loved the views – from the roof terrace (safely fenced and gated) you can even see ships passing down the Adriatic sea. Our children lived in the pool by day and loved the fact that we could all walk into the nearby village and buy ice creams from the little bar in the evening. The shop which is only a few minutes’ walk away was a godsend with everything we needed and run by a really friendly family. The local restaurant served fantastic food at silly prices – with big pizzas from the wood oven for 5 or 6 Euros. We can recommend the beaches at the local Lidos which have beach bars, loungers and showers and our kids loved the big Aquapark on the coast nearby. Grown-ups enjoyed evening trips to very pretty nearby towns like Locorotondo and Cisternino. We would highly recommend Trullo San Marco for a large family or two families holidaying together and we will definitely be returning there!!

I stayed in Trullo San Marco with my husband and two children aged 8 and 11 together with my sister, her husband and two children aged 7 and 10. The trullo was more than big enough to accommodate both families and the layout meant that each family had privacy when needed. The kitchen was very well equipped and because we chose to eat in most evenings the dish washer was a god send! We spent most days by the pool but when we did venture to the beaches ,which were a 20 min drive away, they were never over crowded. Our evenings were either spent walking around locorotondo and eating lots of ice cream from the gelaterias or chatting with the locals at the bar in san marco which was a few mins walk away. The local shop has everything from fish fingers to locally produced wine and there is also a little pharmacy. The neighbours were lovely and presented us with home grown figs and pears. The manager of the Trullo was also very accommodating and when one of our children developed a high temperature she arranged an appointment with the local pediatrician and accompanied us to the appointment - thank you! We had a wonderful time and you will too if you choose Trullo San Marco.Recommended for: Families with Young Children, Pet-friendly, Age 55+, Romantic Getaway, Families with Teenagers.

"Trulli, Trulli, Trulli lovely. Loved the location, the slow pace of life and perfect house for a group of friends and family. Thank you." Steve, Sandy and Families.
"We had a wonderful holiday in the Trullo, it is a charming home and felt so authentically Italian - looking at the pictures on the walls of how it once was - you have done a fantastic job of renovating it. The local people were so friendly to us, we spent many a morning with cornetti and coffee in the local bar but ventured out to local towns and the beach during our stay also. Everything we could have needed was in the house and it was so lovely and cool inside despite the scorching sun outside." Penny and Family
