Stone path winds down to the pool 12m x 4m with stairs for easy access. Fence around the pool area makes it safe for families with children. Covered gazebo where you can eat by the pool.

The walls and floors are constructed from local stone and there is underfloor heating for rentals in the winter time. Fans are available for summer but trulli are cool in the summer even when it is very hot outside.
About Sharon Bierer
Family from Denmark, UK and America who love this part of Italy so much that they have made it their second home. We run a small charity sending dental volunteers to Burma to treat orphans and Henrik is an NHS dentist.
Sharon Bierer purchased this villa in 2006
Why Sharon Bierer chose Brindisi area
Because we know the Contrada and the neighbouring two families who are locals that have lived in the area for generations. We have become friends and they hoped that when this property went up for sale we could keep it within our small group of owners.
What makes this villa unique
Quiet, peaceful, extremely beautiful, yet close to the shops and buzzy, lively Cisternino, the centre of the 'in' crowd in the Summer months.
The views are wonderful.

Beautiful Puglia, wonderful Trullo house - a home from home
The house is lovely, beautiful setting in the rolling hills, with extensive views of Trullo dotted rural landscape and with Locorotondo in the distance - even prettier at night. The house, pool and gardens are pretty, and give a very authentic Puglian emotion - everything outside and inside the house is elegantly framed. The rooms are large and airy under the stunning Trullo domed roofs and the house feels nice and cool even on 36 degree days. We panicked when there was no AC but there are fans and we felt very comfortable day and night. The furniture/beds good quality, comfortable and the level of equipment for kitchen, TV/movies/games, bikes, towels, umbrellas/torches was exceptional - one of the best equipped Villas we have stayed in. Great to have Mosquito nets on all doors and easy to use alarm system. The owners and the housekeeper were there to welcome us and close by, and proactive at being in touch if you need something.
Loved it. The location is also a highlight as Cisternino old town is a hidden gem in Puglia - lovely square, cafes, restaurants, boutique shops - but most of all great people, ambience - bustling at night but not too busy, not too loud, just gorgeous Italian vibe. And Locorotondo, Alberbello, Ostuni etc all close. Lovely walks nearby also good for running/bikes - there is 22km trail that runs through Itria Valley next to the house!
We stayed in our 2nd week in a larger more expensive (+50%), stylised Trullo - but honestly missed this house and it's home from home quality and great location.
Fantastic Home/Trulli/Fantastic Hosts
We spent 6 days here recently, and loved it. The Trulli has been renovated to such a high standard and is truly luxury. The pool was fantastic at any time. The location was great, with a reasonable drive to the beach and a short drive to some lovely villages in the Valle d'itria. We couldn't recommend it highly enough.
Fabulous holiday in a beautiful Trulli!!
We had 7 nights at this beautiful Trulli and we loved our stay here so much! The nearest town, Cisternino, was delightful. We were in a great position to visit all the places we wanted to.. Polignano a Mare, Ostuni, Martina Franca, Gallipoli, Alberobella. Sharon and her family and friends were wonderful and added to our amazing holiday. I highly recommend this Trulli for an authentic Puglian holiday! ❤️❤️☀️☀️🇮🇹🇮🇹
Beautiful place. Perfect for us. Very relaxing and peaceful.
Beautiful part of the world. Kids entertained along with adults. Easy to be active or tranquil. Lovely views. Trulli had everything you needed and we had lots of fun and laughter.
A wonderful property
What an amazing holiday rental property! It successfully blends wonderful architecture and fabulous interior design with a house jam packed with everything you could possibly need for a great family holiday. I struggle with finding child friendly holiday homes that I still feel are decorated to a high standard - this property manages to do both.
The owners have thought of absolutely everything and they plus their wonderful housekeeper, could not have been more helpful before and throughout our stay.
The trulli has been designed to maximise the beautiful Puglian light with lots of windows, glass french doors and glass at the top of a number of the trulli conicals. and Waking up in the master bedroom with the morning light streaming through the conical roof was so relaxing and a fabulous way to wake up each morning.
The trulli has a number of french doors opening onto a secure courtyard area with table/chairs/sofas and a beautifully fragrant fig tree which provides a great location for pre-dinner drinks or breakfasts.
The trulli is very well stocked with everything you need for a holiday both in the kitchen and also including things like a DVD collection, books, local information, and lovely touches such as Italian cookbooks and a wonderful welcome basket. Also for those travelling with children the owners have thought and supplied everything from travel cots, buggies, bed guards, potties etc all the way to safety guards on sockets and table corners!
The pool is a lovely size with good seating and well equipped with toys for the pool to keep the children happy. It is fenced off with a padlocked gate so safe for children.
The trulli is set in beautifully landscaped gardens with a number of fruit and fig trees and great views over to both Cisternino and Martina Franca. It is well located to explore the region and near a number of great restaurants. The site is accessed up a driveway with a lockable gate and the house has an alarm so security is great.
Overall the trulli far exceeded our expectations and played a large part in our concluding that this was our best family holiday to date. We will definitely be returning both to Puglia but also to this fabulous trulli.
Little piece of paradise in Puglia
Spent 8 days at the end of May, with another couple, in this beautiful trulli in what is a unique part of Italy. We did many day trips out to neighbouring towns and it was always so nice coming " home" to our beautiful house. It is perfectly placed to visit many towns including Matera to the west and Lecce to the south. We spent a few evenings at home , eating out on the terrace watching the sunset and listening to the birds. So peaceful and relaxing especially after a day driving seeing the sights.
Beds are very comfortable, and night time is very quiet With no traffic noise or street lights disturbing light sleepers as we are.
Oven, dishwasher and washing machine all easy to use and detergent supplied.
Was a little too cold for us to swim but the pool and surrounds are beautiful.
Imma the caretaker is delightful and although speaks very little English, she somehow could work out any of our concerns/ needs.
A welcome pack of wine and fruit and basic supplies was a lovely touch This was a first for us after nearly 8 years experience of renting through VRBO.
We caught a taxi only once in and out to Cisternino. If you don't mind paying 30 euro for round trip then this is a good option. The only restaurant within walking distance, Masseria Cantone , seemed deserted the whole time we were there ( possibly because of bad trip advisor reviews ?) There is another little bar/ pizza place on cycle track about 1.3 kms away which we didn't get to.
Supermarket we eventually found ( sorry Sharon but instructions way too complicated in your instruction book😝maybe just a simple map would help ) is quite easy to get to and has everything you need including a great butcher and great Puglian wine .
Will take our memories of Puglia and this beautiful property back to Australia and recommend it to anyone thinking of coming to this part of the world.

Location
Contrada Fantese is an old masseria (old farm), consisting of only three properties/homes. Our neighbours are locals who farm the land and mend the surrounding trulli. It lies in the middle of the valley d'Itria, surrounded by fields and there are superb views of Locorontondo and Cisternino from the garden. The area is close to all the famous towns of the area, Martina Franca, Alberobello, Ostuni and Ceglie Messapica (renown for its restaurants). The sea is about 25 minutes drive away with beautiful sandy beaches. The area is full of wild flowers, olive, fig, walnut and almond trees and local vineyards.
Cycle on the famous Italian cycling routes (2 minutes from the villa), visit the Bhole Baba buddhist centre for yoga and meditation, run through the countryside, visit the vineyards, cheese shops.
