The house is in a very quiet location, ideal for getting away from it all. It has good access to services within a few hundred meters, although for bigger and more diverse shops you need to drive into Noto (few km away). The exterior is a large garden with a great swimming pool and barbecue area, ideal for relaxing. The house itself is spacious and functional with the essential equipment, including very good internet. The weather was cool at the start of our stay, and the house takes some time to heat up, which should make it perfect for hot summers. Giovanni was incredible as a host, always available for questions and information on the local area. We would definitely return to explore more of this beautiful part of Sicily.
