The villa itself was interesting to say the least with some quirky furniture (the chairs of which were not particulary comfortable to sit on) The artwork added to the atmosphere! We would have liked to use the pool more but were somewhat deterred by the onslaught of biting bush-flies each time we swam. Don't know if this is a seasonal thing or due to the proximity of the surrounding trees and heavy shrubbery but whatever the reason it made swimming uncomfortable at times.
Kitchen setup is great and although we did not take any cooking lessons from Ricardo we DID get the wood fired Pizza oven cranked up one evening after buying some pizza dough and toppings from the supermarket in Pontesieve. After one failure we were able to produce some very edible wood-fired pizzas. Local restaurants are good for pizzas but only fair to middling for other Italian food. Would not recommend the one close to the station at S. Ellero. Our only advice to Ricardo would be to install some ceiling fans. Generally speaking we had a great ten day holiday as the pluses far outweighed the minuses
