As we did not have a car or scooter in the first days of our stay, Kheli picked us up from the station and even took us to a supermarket so we could shop without having to carry everything up on foot, which was a huge help.
The studio was very nice, cozy and super tidy and Kheli and Harvey had provided us with some bread, fruit, coffee and homemade tangerine marmalade to ensure we had breakfast the first morning and made us feel very welcome right away.
The piece of land around is incredibly beautiful and from the front patio you have a with a magnificent view of the valley. We took a lot of walks over the estate and the surroundings as well as down to the beach or into the village of Lascari. It is also very easy and to get to Cefalú by train. Here we rented a scooter for a couple of days to explore the nature park Parco delle Madonie and the beautiful mountain villages Castelbuono, Isnello and Gratteri.
The weather in October was still very warm, we could swim in the sea quite a bit and were lucky to enjoy a lot of sun. However if you plan to go hiking I would recommend some long clothes for the higher regions, as it can get a little bit cool there.
We had a very relaxed and recreational stay. Kheli and Harvey were very open and mindful hosts, provided us with a lot of helpful tips and made sure we had nothing to worry about. Thanks again!
