We had a lovely stay at Melania's place. It is a need and beautiful apartment on the country side with great views. It belongs to Melania's family. Her father, mother and other family members were really friendly and even though we didn't speak any Italian or they English, we connected really nice. The place is well equipped in everything, from electrical heater till wine opener. Please note that the shower has some special instructions, at least in our case. Getting warm water was a challenge, and turning off the shower even more. As mentioned by others, to see something from the area or to go to restaurants you really need a car. A great place to have lunch is
