David and Francesco moved to Puglia in 2012 to get away from the hustle and bustle of London and start a new chapter in their lives. 

​

David has many years of experience in hospitality and retail. Most recently as part owner of the award-winning boutique ‘Black Truffle‘. Francesco has been a stylist, designer and fashion consultant in both London and Rome for many years.

 

When David finally managed to coax Francesco to return to his native Italy, the two brought with them a unique flair for design, which is reflected in the decor at both Casa and Trullo della Scrittrice beautifully complimenting their existing charm.

Having  worked with people from all over the world you can definitely be assured of a warm welcome from them and their very friendly dogs and cats.
