Welcome to this modest page of Italy Information and recommendations.
These links should take you to the Apple App store with the appropriate App. In time I will try to add the adroid option.

This is the house shown on the cover of my Chautauqua book. If you are interested in renting this you can look at the property on Vrbo.
The Main House - four bedrooms
The Attic - one bedroom
You could reserve the property on Vrbo if you like, but I suggest you just contact the owner, Renato Morbidelli, directly at renatomorbidelli@outlook.it or on WhatsApp at +39 333 2606013. If you do, tell him I sent you. I've alerted him to the fact that he may hear from some of you.
