Puglia has many charms – medieval palazzi, rocky coves, snowy-white stone – but none as recognisable as its trulli houses. These conical-topped, white-washed, circular stone cottages – thought to originally have been built as peasants’ dwellings – are found around Alberobello. Those in Alberobello itself are UNESCO-protected. Others have been imaginatively converted to provide a unique hotel stay with thick stone walls, quirky-shaped rooms, and beds tucked into alcoves. They’re both romantic and great fun. We’ve picked out some of Puglia’s best trulli hotels, so you can start planning...
