I can't recommend staying in Francesco's place enough. We had a wonderful time. His mother Dina and sister Caterina gave us a very warm welcome on our first night, including giving us a lovely freshly baked cake. We met Francesco's dad Nino the next morning when we got to bake bread, make pasta with Grandma and prepare a wonderful vegetarian lunch with the whole family finished off with freshly prepared canolli. This was one of a series of meal deals that the family offer you
The Villa itself is very clean and tidy with a lovely outside area to sit down and watch the stars at night.
The Villa is a lovely base if you are a keen walker, there's a nature reserve nearby. Nicosia is only five minutes away so stocking up on the essentials is easy. We'd definitely stay there again.
