'Thank you for allowing us to share your wonderful holiday apartments. Everything about Villa Torri was superb, a wonderfully run and immaculate site. It is obvious that you and your family take great pride in you home. It has been excellently restored and converted, and it was a pleasure to stay, and to taste "mamas" buffett! We would like to return one day to Villa Torri' John Tietjen and party, UK, 05 September 2005.
