Surrounded by over 8 hectares (20 acres) of sunbaked olive groves, fruit orchards dotted with plum, almond, medlar, pear, quince, cherry, apple and fig trees and mediterranean maquis, Amore is a traditional trullo complex that has recently been fully restored using ancient stone masonry techniques. It provides luxurious accommodation while retaining the charm and character of the original building. It oozes comfort and style and gives the feeling of stepping back in time. It consists of charming and tastefully furnished 6 cone trulli with 2 attached villette, 2 lamie with barrel-vaulted ceilings and a separate villetta. Unique 18 x 7 metre infinity pool!

Immersed in nature, the trulli are surrounded by hundreds of olive trees and fruit trees and a gorgeous 18 x 7 metre (60 x 23ft) infinity edge “blu celeste” swimming pool which incorporates a 4 metre (13ft) children’s dipping pool with gently shelving steps to one end. Lovely shaded drystone walled pietre di Trani terraces and patios with padded stone seats, sun loungers and umbrellas transform the garden and pool area into splendid open-air lounges, creating an enchanting place to relax.
