Attractive sites that are core of the place and with the amazing history of the place we enjoyed the tour around some of the best places at the village. We visited the castle as well as the churches and the tour was fantastic and we were delighted to see the amazing places and things.

The rural setup and the homely atmosphere was welcoming. I enjoyed the cool climate and interacted with the friendly locals. I relaxed in the evening watching the beautiful sunset while enjoying a glass of local wine.
