We visited in November when the weather was quite cool. Ppl seem to love it in summer. It's a nice little place, but it's really built for a lifestyle where you're mostly outside and just come in to wash and sleep! So, at cooler times of the year, it's less comfortable and actually the bedroom is hard to keep warm. The central heating wasn't on and the overhead warm air heater, while working well, didn't reach the bedroom. The extra blanket smelled mouldy and needed a wash (which we gave it) before we could use it and there were quite a few long black hairs (not ours) about. I think they weren't prepared for the time of year, and perhaps should just have closed, rather than taking our booking. Other reviews, we've noticed, stop in September. So it may be a good idea to 'winterise' this place by making it cosy. China was cracked - Maurizio has said he will replace. We felt the price was high for what it was at the time of year - w a big cleaning fee that only turns up as you're booking
