We spent a fantastic week in the peace and quiet at Villa Giuseppina. Our hosts were friendly and helpful, and managed to get balance just right between being present when we needed help or advice about sights, beaches or restaurants, while being withdrawn enough that we always had our privacy. The location is ideal - in the hills, down a country road and therefore very peaceful, yet very close to Noto, the beaches at Vendicari and other sights and towns in the area. The house is lovely - simple, and comfortable, with plenty of space. We had the whole ground floor while our hosts were upstairs. We ate all our meals relaxing on the terrace, under the gazebo or the stars, with a few over the olive grove. A lovely home in a beautiful and fascinating area, I can't recommend it highly enough.
