I arrived by bus from Palermo in Polizzi and Pietro picked me up, spent one week there writing on my PhD thesis. It was nice to sit beneath the old mulberry tree in front of the house. I asked pietro and his mother for lunch and got what they ate. Having dinner with various groups from Europe and the U.S. was nice and interesting, but sometimes I just had a small plate of vegetables and cheese I Took in my room. Definitely a place to stay, very authentic experience. Walking to Polizzi takes around 45 minutes, nice walk. Great sunsets at the place.
