Nigel and I stayed at Loris's lovely home for seven nights. Perched on a cliff with breathtaking views over the sea and Mount Etna, the house was immaculate, with marble floors and cool, spotless rooms. Loris was the perfect host: friendly, generous and knowledgeable, who recommended some outstanding restaurants and places to visit, both near and far from Taormina, which was great for us because it was our first time in Sicily. Breakfast on the terrace was delicious, especially Loris's amazing espresso!
