Nicola's home was a lovely place to stay. Although I didn't get to meet Nicola, her friend Michele showed us around the house and made us feel welcome, even providing food for breakfast. The house is stunning and surpassed my expectations- it is full of artwork, interesting spaces and has a beautiful garden. It was very clean and tidy. It is in a pleasant area and easy to access by train or bus. I would definitely recommend this as a place to stay.
