Thank you for a wonderful stay in beautiful surrounding countryside. My family and I have had a fantastic week exploring the area. We enjoyed visiting the Egadi Islands and taking the cable car up to Erice. The ancient site at Segesta (that was a location for the new Indiana Jones film during our stay) was really interesting as was a tour of the salt flats outside Marsala. Your hospitality was so appreciated with the food and wine on our arrival as well as all your helpful suggestions for our visit. Arrivederci! Best wishes!
