Charming trullo in Cisternino in Valle d’Itria, AC, free WIFI & parking

The cultural landscape you meet with in the triangle of the provinces of Bari, Brindisi and Táranto is unique in the world: nature and culture of the picturesque landscape of Valle d’Itria are fascinating. Lovely to behold cone-shaped trulli roofs peek out from in between well-tended almond and olive groves encircled by white stone walls. The trulli, well into the 1930s still home of the poor rural population, are a Monumento Nazionale today and part of the UNESCO World Heritage. For quite some years now, they have been experiencing a renaissance as original and unique living and holiday accommodations. The room climate in the houses is near perfect. Traditionally constructed of massive natural stone, these round-shaped houses keep out the heat in summer and the warmth inside in winter. Like a phoenix from the ashes Elaborately renovated, Villa Natalino stands to be admired in new splendor today (2017) and offers a refined ambience. The white-washed trullo for 5 persons lies picturesquely on a small rise somewhat outside the town of Cisternino, where you might stroll through the well preserved and lively Old Town in the evening. Your holiday accommodation is surrounded by well-tended premises, which include a paved courtyard, palm trees, an outdoor shower, a large furnished terrace with 'sun protection', grill and pizza oven and an outdoor kitchen in a separate trullo. It is a perfect location to enjoy holidays out in the open, under the warm Apulian sun. Children have got enough space for playing and romping around on the fenced premises. Comfort and modern design Stylish and modern furnishing characterizes the rooms of Villa Natalino. The trullo with its spacious annex includes three bedrooms, three bathrooms, a cozy living room with picture windows, a fully equipped kitchen, underfloor heating, air conditioning and WiFi. The light-flooded living room of Villa Natalino includes an elegant dining area and a comfortable sofa corner with two leather sofas and fireside, the latter, however, only a decorative element. From the dining area, a staircase runs down to the garage. There is another, small dining area in the open kitchen with its modern and fully equipped kitchenette. The light-colored, concrete-style worktop and the dark wood veneer form a perfect contrast. The cooking area under the cone-shaped trulli roofs offers what you need: induction cooktop, oven, refrigerator with freezer compartment, dish washer and coffee machine are a matter of course at Natalino’s trullo. Two of the three bedrooms of the holiday home are furnished with double beds. One of the doubles has an en suite bathroom. The third bedroom is furnished with a super single bed (width 1.20 m). There is a TV (Sat-TV) in each bedroom. Furthermore, there are two more bathrooms within the house and one in the outdoor area below the terrace. The bathrooms are modern in design and include WC, bidet and shower. A washing machine, fly screens, a safe and several parking spaces as well as a garage on the fenced premises are part of the villa’s high standard concerning comfort.
