This handsome converted baglio (manor house) has rooms that are somewhat old and tired, but the garden and the location with views over the Valley of the Temples are magnificent. The Accademia del Buon Gusto, the hotel restaurant, is a romantic spot for a sunset drink or dinner. It is a little tricky to find; check the website for exact directions.
