Nicholas
This property dates from the 14th Century and was fully renovated by May 2013. The restoration was conducted by architect Franco Madella which scrupulously kept all of the antique features the house held. It is now run by Art Historian Linda O'brien and her two sons Nicholas and Ryan. Linda loves to give good tips on how and what to visit to make your stay as great as possible. On the other hand the two sons know all the best little places in town and always like to share the secret spots that are always more and more difficult to find.
