“Writer's Paradise”
Quiet location, nice pool to cool off, and peaceful surroundings. Mom, Dad and kids are farmers during the day, hoteliers when not farming. Dad's the chef, surprisingly good, organic food at low prices, everything either home or locally made, including the wine. Cool music and books to browse.
Very good hi-speed internet, a must for my research & writing.
Italian spoken with a little English, so brush-up on a few basics.
Nice countryside to walk or run, but all farming. Rooms very simple but elegant, clean, nice bed and linen. All was so nice I extended my stay for a full week.
A real bargain!
