Michele's place feels like it's in the Valley of the Temples - certainly it is, in spirit - even if a short drive away from the archaeological park. It's peaceful, surrounded by olive and fig trees, the occasional sculpture, and it has a stunning view of the sea from high up. Sunset and the hours after sunset on the porch are amazing, later the stars and planets... The house is very clean and comfortable, exactly as described, a family home - and Michele gave us wonderful advice about how and when to visit the archaeological sites and Scala dei Turchi... The surroundings are great for hilly morning walks. Instead of going out to a restaurant as planned on our last night, we brought food and local wine back, to enjoy this treasure.
