Taste real Italian olive oil produced exclusively on site at Coreggia
Around our fabulous trulli properties in Coreggia, close to the UNESCO World Heritage Site, we are lucky enough to have the ideal climate for olive groves, lemon trees, walnuts and carob trees. It’s a stunning area to explore, with the mature trees providing a wonderful backdrop for the traditional conical trulli properties.
This peaceful setting is characterised by drystone walls, rolling countryside and medieval hilltop towns. For a traditional slice of Italian life, Coreggia is the place. With all the charming olive groves surrounding the properties, we decided to do something with the olives they were producing. Due to the size of the crop that was harvested we were able to produce olive oil, and the first batch was ready to be sold back in 2011. Since then, we have only improved in efficiency! The olives are grown, picked, turned into oil and bottled, to be sold on site to holiday guests staying with us.
It is usually during the winter months that the fruits are harvested around the site and if you happen to be staying, you may even be able to get involved yourself. The oil gets bottled in little 250ml containers, and you’ll find these on site at Coreggia. The freshly produced oil is certainly worth trying.
We’re really proud of our little production scheme. Why not taste our home-grown olive oil for yourself at Coreggia when you're here?
