Colletta di Castelbianco .....


is where we have come for our holidays...Colletta is a medieval hill-top village restored as an internet e-village. I have never seen anything like it before..it is amazing.. Lots of little houses/apartments all built in together, with lots and lots of passages, steps and terraces..

Apart from the people who look after the place and a man I met who lives here, we are the only people staying here..and we are being looked after so well. Last night we had a meal in the restaurant , which incidently is down the steps and next door!!! Our meal was delicious, but I have never eaten so much in my life...and it was all meat. For starter I had venison..I thought it came with a salad, not..it was a plate of thinly sliced venison in olive oil..then Primo was spagetti with a Rabbit sauce...but this turned out to be Hare..and secondo was Fillet steak in a berry sauce...yes you quess right...a fillet steak and that was it...but I can say, it was delicious..with wine, and then chocolates and coffee!!!

  2. I remember reading about this village a few years ago. Sounds a lot like my village now that we have reliable Internet access...of course we have slightly more (although not a lot more) people ;)

    Enjoy!
