Pierluigi has been a great host. He welcomed us personally and gave us lots of information about places to visit, and tourist traps to avoid! The house is basic, but clean and tidy. It is a 5 minute drive from Lido di Noto, but also a 5 minute walk from a long, sandy beach not frequented by tourists and hordes of sun worshippers! The house is in an ideal location to explore the local areas and must see places (Calamosche, Noto, Cava Grande, Fontane Bianche, Siracusa, Mt Etna etc etc.) Thank you Pierluigi - we'll be back!
