This beautifully presented former coach house, sleeping up to twelve guests, is a perfect solution for extended families or families travelling together. Enjoying an enviable location tucked away in the corner of the little village of San Marco in Puglia, this coned stone-house Trullo is a real find.
Trullo Le Carrozze has all the benefits of village life with a local bar, ice-cream parlour, shop, chemist and restaurant/pizzeria within five to ten minutes’ walk. Both Brindisi and Bari airports are reached in less than an hour whilst Locorotondo, officially listed as “one of the most beautiful small towns of Italy”, is an easy five minute ride away. The area’s coast and renowned beaches along with breath taking Itrian valley views can be admired from the house.
This is a deceptively spacious high quality furnished property bursting with character. It is full of nooks and crannies and guaranteed to genuinely feel like home for your stay. The communal areas are both warm and welcoming, largely benefiting from a large well equipped kitchen which extends out onto a sociable open plan dining area and lounge. There are five completely private bedrooms and two vestibule bedrooms. Another bedroom is cleverly concealed in a niche.
The outside areas offer different options; there’s a covered terrace with a barbecue for outdoor dining whilst another separate patio area offers a chance to hideaway and unwind with a book. The poolside has plenty of sun loungers for all, so get comfortable and enjoy the views of the countryside and Adriatic Sea.
Younger guests will be kept entertained with the variety of English board games, toys, books, games console and DVD's. In fact, if you’re travelling with younger guests, there is only a handful of similar properties that are as well suited to receive them.
Take just a five minute walk from Trullo Le Carrozze to reach the local village shop, with almost everything you might need including fresh fruit and vegetables, bread and wine. Next door to the shop you will find a little cafe, perfect for the morning coffee, lunch and ice creams throughout the day. Also in the local area is a medieval chapel, a pharmacy and a couple of bars and restaurants. The small town of Locorotondo can be found a short drive away. It is part of the Borghi più belli d'Italia, an initiative created by the Italian Tourism Council to help preserve the tradition and heritage of historical destinations. This region is noted for its stunning countryside, where many of the famous whitewashed pointed roof Trulli villas can be spotted.
Locorotondo has a reputation for producing delightful red & white wines, from the renowned Verdeca and Bianco d'Alessano grapes. The Old Town itself is fine example of baroque architectural, where tight archways and closely built houses are on display. There are also several museums and churches, for those in search of a cultural high!
Locorotondo Railway Station offers visitors to enjoy day trips to the beautiful cities of Bari and Leccce, as well as visiting the Aquaparc Egnazia, Fasanolandia & Zoosafari. Other nearby towns worth visiting are Cisternino, Martina Franca, Ostuni, Monopoli and Alberobello.
