We had a really magical time at Andrea’s cottage. It’s just as cosy and idyllic as described, if even more charming in the Sicilian sunlight. The wisteria vines over the terrace created the perfect shady haven from the beating August sun. Andrea was a textbook host: thoughtful, communicative and helpful whenever needed. It goes without saying that you need a car to make the most of this place as it’s very rural, but it was a real pleasure to explore the local sights and visit the old bakery at nearby village Santa Rita (we had pizza there on Saturday night under the stars but the bakery itself was only currently open on Sundays) following Andrea‘s recommendations. Can’t wait to go back and explore more of Sicily, the whole experience totally seduced us.
