Trulli Angelo – Holiday Home with Saltwater Pool near Ostuni and Ceglie Messapica

Live the authenticity of Apulia in a trullo with private pool and modern comforts.
Nestled in the Itria Valley countryside, within an extensive 40,000 m² fenced private estate dotted with centuries-old olive trees, Trulli Angelo is an exclusive retreat that blends the charm of traditional trulli with contemporary design interiors. Here you’ll find silence and nature, yet shops, restaurants and services are only a short drive away.

Located in the quiet of a typical rural “Contrada”, surrounded by olive groves and dry-stone walls, just 10 minutes (4 km) from the center of Ceglie Messapica – a town renowned for its gastronomy – and 20 minutes from Ostuni, the famous “White City.” An ideal choice for families or groups of up to 9 guests seeking privacy, authenticity, and relaxation in the heart of Puglia.

Lovingly restored, the villa preserves the soul of the ancient stone while offering modern comforts such as air conditioning, underfloor heating and a 15-metre saltwater pool. The large terrace with its monumental olive tree at the centre is the true stage for outdoor living – a scenic setting for shared lunches and dinners in an unmistakably Apulian atmosphere.
