Owner profile


About the owner
I've suddenly realized that I've lived far longer here than in England.....time flies! For a few years I lived in Rome, which still has a special place in my heart. Calabria over the years has become my home, here I have my family and wonderful friends. To me, Calabria is one of Italy's most beautiful regions, and thanks to the local branch of the Alpine Club (CAI) I've had the opportunity to see some of its most wild and magnificent places. Anyone who is interested in trekking, cross-country skiing, kite surfing could have a great time here. We're not very organized, then who wants to be always organized? Here's the chance to unwind and relax taking in the sun, sand and scenery not forgetting the food and the "grape juice". Ci vediamo presto!

Why the owner chose a home in this location
The house belonged to my husband's family and had been abandoned for several years, that's why it has been a pleasure to restore it.

Unique benefits of the property
Going back to something that's disappearing.
