Living in History!
My husband has always wanted to stay in a castle. Having a villa just under the castle accomplished the task. The owners were so very accommodating as they were available in a separate apartment. She speaks Italian, and he speaks English. Although we arrived a little early, we were greeted with open arms.
The home is on two levels; the kitchen, dining, and a full bath are on the ground level. There is a second bath on a 1/2 level up, and then three bedrooms and another full bath on the top floor. The charm of the building is wonderful and we found ourselves in awe of the history.
The villa does allow for separate rentals - but we had the home and courtyard to ourselves. The family allowed us to use their courtyard to hang the clothing to dry.
As for the town, it is an old family charm that has all the shops you will need including a pastry shop that makes the most wonderful croissants and takeaway cappuccino along with a pizzeria that has takeaway pizza!
Should we find ourselves in this area again, we would absolutely stay here. Although at the top of a mountain/hill, it is a great location to visit many of Italy's areas - Pompeii, Amalfi, Benevento, Salerno.
