It's hard to imagine from the pictures how magical Francesco's home is. We slept in the round room, waking every morning to the sunrise across the ocean. At night we sat on the terrace and watched the moon rise. We listened to the waves boom against the cliffs infront of us, watched lizards bathe in the sunshine and enjoyed cooking and eating in the outdoor kitchen daily. Small pleasures such as making a coffee with the cut out view out to sea are moments we will hold for a very long time. Even washing up with that view was a moment to notice.
Francesco is kind, friendly and provides complete privacy although he is just next door. He is always on hand to help should you need anything. We spent an evening with Francesco eating in the kitchen and learning about the dream that he has built, we'll remember our stay here for a long time.
The coastal path at the bottom of the property reaches caves and a bay in one direction and Il Ciolo in the other. Easy access to swimming within 10 minutes walk in one direction and 20 minutes walk in the other. Swimming in the bay of Novaglie was heaven and a great way to cool off after a warm walk along the coastal path.
Charming, simple, natural living. The ultimate place to stay for some serious time out and reconnection to our surroundings. We hope to visit again.
