Welcome to Lamia Spali

Your bohemian retreat among century-old olive trees

The Story of Lamia Spali

Our dream became reality when we discovered this land with its century-old olive trees, fig trees, and fruit trees.

An old forgotten trullo stood proudly, giving character to the place and no doubt dreaming of reliving happy days in memories of the ancients.

Lamia Spali is immersed in century-old olive groves, just steps from the Torre Guaceto Nature Reserve and the village of Carovigno.

We wanted the house to embody minimalism and simplicity with natural colors and large windows to frame the surrounding nature like paintings. Eco-sustainability and Puglian tradition were also key ingredients in our vision.

Its Bohemian decor with artistic touches gives it a particular charm and makes it a haven of peace and tranquility.

The Authentic Trullo Experience

The trullo is a traditional Apulian dry stone hut with a conical roof, unique to the Itria Valley. At Lamia Spali, our trullo has been meticulously restored to preserve its original charm while providing modern comfort. These structures were originally built by farmers as temporary shelters or storehouses, using the limestone found in the fields. The thick stone walls provide natural insulation, keeping the interior cool during the hot Italian summers and warm during the cooler months.

Inside, you'll find a peaceful bedroom that feels like a sanctuary, where history and minimalism meet. The circular space creates a cozy and protective atmosphere, allowing you to disconnect from the modern world and connect with the ancient traditions of Puglia. It's more than just a room; it's a journey back in time, offering a unique sleeping experience that you won't find anywhere else in the world.

The Century-Old Olive Grove & Dry Garden

Lamia Spali is nestled within an expansive estate of century-old olive trees, some of which have stood for generations, their twisted trunks telling stories of the Puglian sun. Our "dry garden" philosophy embraces the natural Mediterranean landscape, using drought-resistant plants that thrive in this climate without the need for excessive watering. This sustainable approach preserves the local ecosystem while creating a stunning visual tapestry of silvery greens, deep earthy reds, and local stone.

Wander through the grove to find your perfect spot for meditation, or simply enjoy the rustle of olive leaves in the soft breeze. The garden is designed to be a living extension of the house, where the boundary between indoor minimalist elegance and outdoor raw nature becomes beautifully blurred. It is a place of peace, where the timeless beauty of the olive trees provides a sense of grounding and tranquility.
