Expert tips & advice:
Villagers are very friendly, try to speak a few words in Italian and you will be greeted with a smile and as much help as they can.
A great experience for anyone wanting to get away from the usual tourist locations - but close enough to get to them when you want to!

September 1, 2007 - We really enjoyed our stay at Villa Trotta, everyone we came into contact with both at the villa and in Perdifumo were friendly and helpful.
It was our first experience as a family staying in a villa in Italy and I hope it won't be the last!
June 23, 2007 - The Villa Trotta was in a gorgeous location with an amazing view.
It was very spacious and comfortable. We loved all the tables and ate meals at each one.
We really enjoyed our stay and would like to visit again sometime.
May 26, 2007 - Beautiful house, beautiful location. We spent most of our time on the terrace. Our kids, 6 and 7, loved exploring the house and garden.
September 30, 2006 - Enjoy? That doesn't begin to describe how wonderful our vacation was at Villa Trotta. I was so comfortable there that my own home felt strange when I came back.
Anyone looking for the opportunity to get a real taste of what it would be like to live in Italy, should treat themselves to a stay at Villa Trotta.

May 5, 2007 - We traveled to Villa Trotta on April 28th for one week. This was our second trip to Villa Trotta. We love the area, the house, the village of Perdifumo, and the people.
The weather did not cooperate this time. The weather was unseasonably cool and rained just about every day, but we did not let that stop us. We had breakfast daily at the Ruota Pastry Shop. Cornetto and cappuccino, what a way to start the day! Molto Buono!!!
The Malone Alimentari, owned by Graziella, a lovely lady, was the place to buy a bottle of local wine, fresh vegetables, fruits, pasta and cheese. We were eating fresh cherry tomatoes from Sicily in April!!! They tasted wonderful.
We made day trips to San Mauro, Acciaroli, Agropoli and Santa Maria. We enjoyed staying in Perdifumo in the evenings. We would ride or walk over to Ruota Pizzeria and feast on some of the best pizza available today.
We found we enjoyed Italy even more the second time around.
