During World War II many people driven by fear and hunger or simply to escape from the German soldiers found shelter on the hill. Thanks to the extensive restoration, consolidation and conservation work carried out, the rural houses have been restored to their original styles. The almond trees surrounding them, the nearby cypress wood, the hewn-stone walls and the ceilings and beams carefully restored and waxed, all go to evoke an atmosphere of bygone years. The ancient style of the houses and the modern furniture and colors which are simple yet refined, blend perfectly.
The six large rooms are an example of how modern and rural styles can be mixed to the best of their advantage. The ancient red pine and durmast beams and the hewn-stone walls merge in an embrace with the deep colors of the walls and the heated resin floors. The cozy warm atmosphere and the tranquility of the natural environment will make your stay unique and exciting. In the morning bird song will wake you up and, if you are early risers, you can enjoy the beautiful dawns which will make your stay unforgettable.
