Sunset Poolside Trullo in Martina Franca

The agriturismo is located in the countryside of Martina Franca. The city is the economic and cultural centre of the Valle d'Itria, also famous for its Baroque-style palaces and ancient churches, a historic centre of authentic beauty, the exquisite IGP (Protected Geographical Indication) salami called 'Capocollo di Martina Franca' and for its international song and theatre festival. The Trullo del Ciliegeto has its entrance on the west side of the building overlooking the swimming pool. Outside is the in-ground pool, which is surrounded by green cherry trees and olive trees. In the cliff corner of the pool, fragrant flowers and plants and a large palm tree colour the area. Enchanting is the sunset that can be enjoyed from here on fine summer evenings. The area is well lit at night and is ideal for a dip in the moonlight or for a few minutes listening to the wind rustling through the cherry trees. The pool also has a convenient access via fixed stairs where it is also possible to sit between the water and the sun; the outdoor shower is housed in a special stone structure. The dimensions are: surface area approximately 13x7 metres and depth from 0.9 to 2.3 metres excluding stairs. The trullo's garden and vegetable garden are an essential part of our country home, always full of flowers, plants and shrubs including olive, cherry, pear and prickly pear trees. In addition, the vegetable garden will not fail to offer you typical and seasonal delicacies. The ancient stone threshing floor is the element that was the centre of life in a group of small trulli and country houses. Here the wheat was separated from the ears of grain after hard work under the scorching sun, but also, in the shade of the evening, the neighbourhood gathered for dances and parties. Today, observing the 'chianche' of the farmyard greyed by time, it is nice to think that so many joys and so many sorrows have passed through this little corner of Apulia. The common shaded areas: the gazebo of the farmyard characterised by the imposing dry-stone wall with the two mangers and the beautiful stone column; the gazebo of the swimming pool with its beautiful view of the Itria Valley is a few steps away from the tavern and the pool. Barbecues with wood provided and everything you need to rediscover the pleasure of barbecuing. The laundry room is available to our guests: your clothes will smell of Puglia! The play area for young and old with a pin-pong table, slides, climbing wall for children, and a swing. The area for separate waste collection. The house is suitable for two people or a family with a child as it has the possibility of a sofa bed in the living room. The living room also has a beautiful typical stone floor. The trullo also has: a large bathroom, furnished in arte povera style, with shower; the kitchen equipped with four burners, electric oven, set of plates, glasses and cups, crockery, pots, pans, coffee moke, tea kettle, refrigerator with freezer, and much more; the double bedroom with wardrobe with the largest trullo cone in the building; satellite TV; international collection of books to exchange; private outdoor shaded area with wooden table and chairs.
