Fatuaria

About

Fatuaria is a trulli farm in the countryside of Ostuni, in the middle of Valle d'Itria.Built in the first half of the nineteenth century, it was originally intended as a peasant house with attached stores for grain and straw, a millstone, stalls for animals and jazzi and courtyards for the shelter of horses. The terraces surrounding the farm were used, from the beginning, for the cultivation of the vine, the olive and the almond, with vegetable gardens, arable crops and fruit trees typical of the area. Here was also produced a very fragrant honey, thanks to very rare flowering mint plants, still present. Today, after a careful restoration by the new owners, the farm has become a refined boutique hotel with six rooms between suites and junior suites created in what were the old animal shelters. Furnished with originality and care, the rooms are different from one another through the inclusion of pieces of design, contemporary art, but also furniture and objects of rural life.
