Il Trullo di Laura

The pretty town of San Michele Salentino is located in sunny Salento in Apulia. A half hour from the coast and within easy access of the famous towns of Ostuni, Ceglie Messapica, San Vito Normanni, Carovigno, Brindisi, and Lecce, it is a great base from which to explore the wider region. The town itself also has a lovely historic centre with pretty piazze and churches and a bunch of trulli, the traditional conical stone buildings that are typical of this part of the world. Among these sweet little historic stone houses, is our rental, Trullo Della Quercia, a pretty and romantic little gem that is perfectly built for two, with one bedroom and one bathroom
