Ok first off, this is a beautiful property. The proprietors were welcoming and friendly. It is clean and safe. I did feel like their website and marketing photos were a little misleading, once I arrived because it is a very small operation with only a couple of rooms. Dinner wasn't offered because there were not enough guests, which I understand, but this place is pretty remote and driving 20 minutes to dinner and back was not something I had planned on having to do. The Apple Maps GPS also sent me to the wrong location, so if you are using GPS to find this destination, use the map coordinates on their website or use Google maps, which will lead you to the gate. I was in the Biancolilla Room- marketed as a Superior Double room. It is a cavernous, tiny room at ground level adjacent to reception. The only natural light is from the door and small sidelight, which if opened afford zero privacy, without the curtain. The air conditioning didn't work properly and the room quickly was uncomfortably hot. To get fresh air to circulate you need to leave the door swinging open or you can open the small sidelight. Either way I found it claustrophobic, with little to no storage room. The shower looks nice but water splashes all over the bathroom floor due to the design. In short, it is a nice property but it was not worth the price paid, as I've now compared to other places. There was no "experience" of being on a farm, it was a claustrophobic bedroom with a nice breakfast.
