It was perfect for us!
We were traveling with two young children and four adults and it was perfect for us! The private pool was wonderful. The town is very quiet but had very friendly people and the house was located easily to get to Alberobello and Matera by car. Also, check out Indiana Park if you have small kids!

We will return there very soon
We spent a week in July in the beautiful Trullo in Castellana Grotte and we had a great time. The trullo was very well equipped and spacious. The swimming pool area was so lovely and we did love the comfy beds around the pool. There were bikes available and a beautiful covered patio for our breakfast in the morning. We did have a small problem with water (it did stop coming for few hours) but it was fixed the same day. I would definitely recommend this place and hopefully we will return there our self very soon.
Don't miss out! Reserve now and get a full refund if you change your mind within 48hrs.
