The villa

Cut into the rock, then whitewashed

Nothing here was clad to look old. The dark surfaces in the bathroom are the volcanic rock the house was carved out of, sealed and polished by hand.

A rain shower under a round skylight in a bathroom carved from volcanic rock
Arched alcove windows above a built-in bed
A polished dark stone washbasin under a round mirror
Two built-in beds facing each other beneath the vault
Coffee cups and dried flowers on a shuttered windowsill

The village

Emporio, not the postcard side

Emporio is the old walled village in the south of the island, a knot of white lanes too narrow for cars. Everything below is a walk, not a drive.
