A truly authentic Sicilian experience in a rural, rustic, quaint setting. Giambattista was an extremely gracious host and shared his enthusiasm for country life. He provided an a la cart breakfast every morning (hard boiled eggs & peaches/plums from the farm, homemade toast & marmalade, & tea). He also included us in a aperitivo potluck dinner he hosted for a handful of friends; they were wonderfully warm and welcoming. The guest accommodation was in an old wine cellar which remained remarkably cool despite having no A/C over successive 40C/100F days. For the guest quarters there was a mini fridge (no full kitchen but just ask if you need to borrow a bottle opener/glasses, etc.) & a small private garden which was delightful for enjoying a glass of wine in the evening. Linens & bathroom were clean, no frills; we had everything we needed after driving the countryside, and Giambattista made us very welcome when we returned home.
