Magical is the word to describe Barbara's house and location. Stunningly beautiful in every sense. The house is simple, clean and perfect with everything you need and the most breathtaking views, both sunrise and sunset over the tyrrhenian sea. Pollina is a tiny ancient village with steep cobbled streets, a few bars where the locals play cards, flowers everywhere, so beautifully kept but far from anything touristy. I think my cousin and I were the only visitors. Unless you like to cycle far, a car is preferable.. steep climbs to reach the village from the coast. Truly wonderful! *
