Luxury olive mill with heated pool, sea views within walking distance of Ostuni

Masseria Il Trappeto is a stunningly restored olive mill just 1 mile from the historic town of Ostuni, which is set in an an ancient olive grove. It has a heated pool. The Evening Standard described it as 'the perfect place to come for a week with a gang of friends.'

It has 7 bedrooms and 7 bathrooms. It has a large outside terrace with a stone table by the pool that seats 14. WIFI AVAILABLE.

There is also limonetto, a private party area just 50m from the front door, which has its own outside kitchen, dance floor, table for 18, open fireplace and lemon trees.....

There is also another chill-out area in the walled garden which is a pergola with sofas and table football by the large heated swimming pool. This now has a beautiful Rajasthani canopy which we had specially made for us in Jodhpur. We also have a ping pong table.

The property is surrounded by terraces on the first floor with magnificent views of Ostuni and the sea. For cooler times we have underfloor heating and two open fireplaces. There is a flat screen TV and internet connection and a music system (CDs and ipods) for music throughout the ground floor. There is a 60sqm sitting room which has the original olive presses, and a large kitchen, with 3 sinks, a large stone table in front of a working fireplace and an island.

The property is set in a peaceful 10,000 acre olive grove, with trees over 1,000 years old. It is a UNESCO World Heritage sit. Yet, it is a 5-minute drive or 20-minute walk to Ostuni. There are no other occupied buildings within sight.

I am always available to answer any questions you have about the villa, flights and facilities. You can call, text or email me anytime. And we also have an Italian house manager, who speaks fluent English and lives 5 minutes away. He can organise a cook and outings.

Perfect Puglia Villa
A trulty wonderful villa - superb facilities for relaxing by the huge pool, games on the terrace, barbecue dinner in the Lemon grove, ping pong in the shade, luxury in the bedrooms and bathrooms, cooking in the well-stocked kitchen and snooze in the peaceful olive grove setting about 30 mins walk from the amazing White City of Ostuni. If you are a large group I cannot recommend Il Trappetto enough. Perfect! Book it now.

Wonderful base for exploring Puglia!
We really enjoyed our 2 week stay at Il Trappetto, a unique restoration of an ancient olive mill. The villa is ideally located for day trips to Bari, Polignano a Mare, Monopoli, Lecce and Santa Maria di Leuca, and of course is very close to Ostuni with its restaurants and shopping. Il Trappetto accommodated us very comfortably - more than enough space to gather together, as well as lots of private space, with a well-equipped kitchen. Ottavio, the property manager, was extremely responsive and provided great recommendations (Mimma the chef is fantastic!) to help us make the most of our time there. Definitely a place we'd return to!

Not a luxury villa. Rather tired and needs refurbishing. Local manager was a big help, fixing the many problems we encountered … green pool, broken air conditioner, blocked drains, flood in laundry room, repaired broken toilet seat with gaffer tape etc. Ostuni is lovely with many good restaurants. Great night life too.

Fantastic Stay at a Breathtaking Property
We had the pleasure of staying at Il Trappeto the week prior to my sister's wedding in Ostuni and had an amazing experience. The property is incredibly charming and beautiful set in the middle of the ancient olive groves. The home was perfect for our large group and accommodated a pasta making class and wine tasting class, along with various other casual get togethers for friends and family arriving into the area before the wedding festivities. I would highly recommend it for anyone visiting the Ostuni area with a larger group.

Wonderful converted Olive Mill and great hosts
The house, pool and gardens are wonderful. A real experience. Ottavio the property manager is always available and helped us when needed throughout the week. The views up to Ostuni from the house are just great, and its not far at all into the town by car or on foot. We had a really lovely week there. Ostuni is also a great place for a dinner out and a wonder around. A lovely old town. Only minor negatives would be the weak wifi coverage which could be fixed easily with a few well positioned boosters, and also the lack of a microwave which was a bit inconvenient with a baby in the party. Recommended!

Beautiful Holiday!
Masseria Il Trappeto was even more beautiful than the photos on the website. Our extended family of 13 spent a wonderful week here in mid June. The spaces worked so well and were large enough for everyone to find somewhere to relax. A wonderful base to explore stunning Puglia. The owner Josephine was extremely helpful with local information which we used to plan our week in the area. The manager of the property Ottavio spoke fluent English and could not have been more helpful with any requests we had. He helped organise transport for our group, also a photographer for the family birthday and we had a great cooking class and dinner one night. The pool was just fantastic with the very warm weather. Although the property is a few kilometres from Ostuni several of our group made the 30 min walk there each morning coming back with wonderful pasteries.We would really love to return to this property one day - the restoration of this Olive Mill has been done perfectly..

VILLA BELLISSIMA. Andrebbe migliorata la comunicazione ed alcuni servizi
La villa è molto bella, ben curata e pulita. Il salone è molto grande: ha una zona conversazione con divani e poltrone, una zona tv con molti divani lunghi, una zona camino ed una zona pranzo; la cucina è molto grande e ben attrezzata; ha un'isola centrale (con lavabo) molto comoda ed altri due grandi piani di lavoro. Frigorifero grande, forno grande, lavastoviglie. Le camere sono molto belle, alcune grandi ed altre più piccole, ma comunque ben curate. La posizione della casa è molto comoda, a 5 minuti di auto dal centro di Ostuni e a circa 30-40 minuti di auto da altre località (Alberobello, Locorotondo, Polignano etc...). Al nostro arrivo però abbiamo trovato il piano terra molto freddo (circa 16 gradi); solo il primo piano (quello con le camere) era caldo. Abbiamo allora cercato di contattare la persona che ci era stata indicata come riferimento (sig. Ottavio), che però era fuori. Abbiamo cercato di risolvere la cosa telefonicamente, ma senza risultato. Inoltre un telecomando di un condizionatore di una camera al piano terra non era funzionante. Abbiamo allora acceso entrambi i caminetti per scaldarci e la legna è finita in sole 5-6 ore. Avevo chiesto espressamente al Sig. Ottavio di farci trovare almeno 3-4 quintali di legna, ma la quantità che era in casa non credo superasse 1,5 quintali. Allora, visto che la legna era quasi finita e visto che la casa non si scaldava, ho chiamato nuovamente il Sig. Ottavio, il quale mi ha messo in contatto con il figlio (Sig. Osvaldo), che è venuto in casa solo nel tardo pomeriggio insieme ad un termo-tecnico per effettuare dei controlli. il problema era che la caldaia del piano di sotto era partita solo al nostro ingresso (non era stata accesa il giorno prima) pertanto era necessario del tempo prima che essa potesse scaldare la casa. Il Sig. Osvaldo, dopo nostre ripetute richieste, ci ha poi fornito la sera stessa dell'altra legna ed il giorno seguente ci ha portato un nuovo telecomando per il condizionatore della camera al piano terra. Considerata la bellezza ella villa (ed anche il prezzo pagato), sarebbe opportuno avere più attenzione a queste cose in modo da consentire una migliore fruibilità ai clienti. Inoltre nell'annuncio andrebbe specificato che 2 camere hanno solo un accesso esterno e soprattutto andrebbe specificato che il riscaldamento (che si paga a parte) è a GPL (molto più costoso del gas metano). A parte questi problemi, il nostro soggiorno nella villa è stato molto bello

Traumurlaub in Apulien
Wir waren als Großfamilie (7 Erwachsene, 4 Kinder) das erste Mal in Apulien und hatten traumhaft schönes Wetter. Ein wesentlicher Faktor für unseren Traumurlaub war jedoch die wunderbar restaurierte Ölmühle, die noch schöner war als aufgrund der Prospekte erwartet. Die Großzügigkeit, ruhige Lage , Einrichtung und Ausstattung, Betreuung, Anbindung an die Stadt Ostuni, zentrale Lage für Ausflüge in die Umgebung von Lecce bis Bari, all das war Garant für einen wunderschönen Familienurlaub, von dem wir spontan gesagt haben, dass wir das noch einmal wiederholen wollen, und zwar wegen dieser Location! Bitte geben Sie unsere Komplimente unbedingt weiter an die Eigentümer, Familie Pembroke in London! Familie Georg Kämpfer
