Italians love children, whether in the street or restaurant, even the cultural aspects such as food – pasta, pizza & gelato – are so child friendly.

Our children have loved Casa a Corte since we bought the house in 2000. They have played in the streams, looked for praying mantis, planted trees on the estate, not to mention loving the Italian people and food.
