Valentina's house was a perfect place for me to stay when I visited Malfa. Close enough to everything yet away from the town centre with a lovely terrace and view over the sea. I was met by the housekeeper who showed me everything, including the short cut into town. Easy if you speak Italian! The only downfall was I kept windows open at night in an attempt to cool the apartment and got bitten alive by mosquitoes. The next evening I used a rickety old fan next to the bed to cool me down which worked ok.
