Freshly baked, still-fragrant bread, homemade jam, fruit from the trees in the garden, and many other regional delicacies are served every morning on the terrace, which offers a view of the sea. In winter, breakfast is served in a historic, rustic wine press—not a bad way to start your day on vacation.
