Ottolire Resort: where the white of an ancient and elegant trulli is lost among the green of the olive trees
If you want an exclusive and little known location that has only recently opened to weddings, an oasis of peace and elegance, you have found your perfect place: Ottolire Resort!
In the middle of sunny Puglia, right on the edge of the Murge plateau, between the city of Bari and the provinces of Brindisi and Taranto, is the alluring Valle d’Itria, known by locals as the Valle dei Trulli, where many white conical houses are lost in the landscape of bright red soil, and olive trees are scattered as far as the eye can see. At a closer glance, you can see the charming Ottolire resort complex, a tribute to a family that loves their land and its traditions.
Ottolire was in fact the nickname of the owner’s grandfather, who was a master manufacturer of dry-stone walls typical of the Valle dei Trulli. He was known throughout Fasano, a lush land in the province of Brindisi. In memory of an ancient art and driven by a strong vocation for the recovery and conservation of stone buildings, Michele – nicknamed Ottolire – and his wife, Vita, decided to give new life to a group of ruined trulli, a task that lasted years and which they shared with their children, Erasmo and Antonella, who continue to take care of the estate to this day. The estate is open to all couples who admire the exclusivity and sheer beauty of the Ottolire Resort Complex.
Immersed in a large and verdant space, protected by a luxuriant oak and pine forest interspersed with Mediterranean plants, Ottolire resort is the ideal location if you are looking to escape to a place of peace and total tranquillity. You will be fascinated by the coordination of the estate’s structures, expertly created through the combination of ancient and contemporary geometric design. You will appreciate the timeless charm of trulli and its dry-stone walls, as well as the comforts offered by the splendid swimming pool and spa. Ottolire resort makes all its spaces available to couples for their wedding, including its thirteen suites, to guarantee privacy for three days to you and your loved ones, and to give you the opportunity to appreciate this breath-taking location in total peace.
