This 17th century Genoese mansion is the home of Claire and Vangelis Tsitsopoulos, who run the estate of over a thousand fruit trees while also receiving guests. Vangelis is an artist and a passionate collector of old objects, and you’ll find his iron & wood sculptures and all sorts of bits and pieces – old radios, a jukebox, Mexican marionettes, and so on – in every corner. Bedrooms, each one with its own feel and personality, are charming and spacious (a few are on the first floor of the mansion, others are in the smaller houses scattered on the estate). Gardens are wonderful with terraces partially shaded by enormous pine trees, an elevated pond covered in water lilies and an old wells and watermills. A generous breakfast (eggs, cheeses, yoghurt, cake, biscuits and a variation of fresh juices and homemade jams) is served on the terrace.
