Description
Beach house 3 minutes away from the sea in the south of Italy! This is where you are going to stay.
We are an Italian family, Barbara & Simone and 2 children, Alice 10 and Alessandro 12. We normally host in our holiday house during summer for the kids to improve their English. The place is safe but quiet , so if you are a party lover, well this is not your match.
If you are interested in family activities, local food, sea and history, this is definitely cool (ancient Greeks and Romans lived here, so there are many things to see).

Accommodation
The place is a 3 floor house and garden, 3 min away from the beach (walking distance). You will be hosted in a single room + single bathroom, not directly connected to the room. More rooms, living room, kitchen, plenty of balconies. Family house: relatives live on the first floor. We normally cook but if you wish to do it sometimes, most welcome. Our diet is healthy and varied, the south of Italy is typical Mediterranean area where veg and fruits grow quite naturally due to the climate.
What else ...
A typical weekday in our family. Mornings: routines of the day, beach time. Sometimes you might be requested to take the kids to the beach alone, some other time we could join too. Alternatively, we could do sightseeing or we go out for buying stuff. Afternoons: relax, homeworks, we often go out visiting something or possibly back to the beach in the late afternoon. Evenings: dinner in or out, if there is something like beach club events or else at the time of your staying, we can join. Weekends is family outings and we are glad to take you around, such as visiting museums or archaeological site, picturesque little town, etc. Local public transport is limited, car is a must. Train is available, old and slow trains but they do their job. No specific house rules, except for common sense to be used.
