A stay at Silvana is a chance to stay in a piece of local architectural heritage – a conical-roofed trullo house – while still enjoying the best of contemporary luxury. This quaint home in the depths of the Puglian countryside, built some 400 years ago but it's been impeccably restored Upon arrival, the first thing you’ll notice is a welcome hamper from your host, packed with delicious local treats. Perhaps you’ll take these on a day trip over to UNESCO World Heritage Site Alberobello, where you’ll find plenty more trulli, or instead simply savour them while sunbathing by your private pool.
