村莊

We stayed for a weekend at Il Paesino - Licodia Eubea. The moment we arrived we were given a warm welcome by Carmelo, the owner, and later his lovely wife. The place is spotless, the bedroom and shower spacious, the beds comfortable and the mountain view spectacular. He accommodated all our requests, showed us around the village, introduced us to the community of Licodia, gave us tips about places to visit and restaurants to eat at, helped us with buying bus tickets, and gave us lifts to places nearby. The village is quiet yet full of people who immediately made us feel at home. Fresh bread, warm sheep milk ricotta, mouthwatering arancini, and almond biscuits are amongst the many things we savoured and will definitely go back for. The location is excellent if you are a nature lover. The highlight of our stay was a walk to Lago Dirillo and back - it was a lovely day spent soaking in the sun, feasting our eyes with breath-taking views, replenishing ourselves with the fresh air, talking to locals, taking pictures with horses and much more. We felt safe throughout our stay. It's a place I will give 11/10 for. Keep it up Carmelo! Thank you very much. Ci vediamo presto :-)
