We visited over the new year period so didn’t get to use the outside spaces that much. The bbq area looks like a great space for the summer though.
Mauro got the heating working for us when we arrived and the house was warm enough for shorts and t-shirts which was our main concern going out of season.
The house has everything we needed. We ate in a couple of days, cooking local food from the amazing local market in Syracusa. The rest of the time we ate out in Ortigia which is really nice and only about 15 minutes drive away.
The house is a bit out of the way so you will need a car as there isn’t much locally apart from a small shop which you can walk to for bread etc.
Manuela was very responsive on WhatsApp. We had a problem with the air conditioning after a big storm and it was fixed within 10 minutes.
Would love to visit again when it’s a bit warmer but we had a very relaxing New Years break.
