Comano villa

The larger village of Comano is just a short walk away, with the exact time being dependant on the speed at which you can tackle a hill, because at 650m above sea-level, the trek is steep! The reward for a little exertion... no one's to know if you opt to drive... are two cafe's and hotels, a pizzeria, grocery, bakers and newsagent. There is also a garage.

It could be due to the mountain air or exercise, but some claim that the best food you will ever eat can be found at Crespiano's, just 5 minutes drive away.
