An Italian idyll
No one in my family wanted to leave this house when our vacation was over. This fascinating, beautifully appointed old home was filled with charm, comfort & interest. From the lovely outdoor patio to the clawfoot bathtub, we completely enjoyed every aspect. The entrance from the narrow cobblestone alleyway added to its charm. Parking was a convenient short distance and a small grocer with essentials was around the corner. I wish I could stay there all summer.
