You won't want to leave the house after you see the view, which is more astounding than the photos. We very much enjoyed being up on the hill where it was peaceful and quiet, venturing into town when we wanted to. We opted to spend our days sightseeing, grabbing a nice restaurant lunch while we were out, then stayed in during the evenings to watch the sunset with a glass of wine on the deck and enjoyed a light, home-cooked meal. We never did make it to the nearby restaurant but we noticed it had good reviews if you want an easy evening meal out. Massimo was always available and was very helpful when we had last-minute flight problems that changed our check-in plans. We hope to return some day!
