Relais Il Borgo 20-8

After a beautiful drive from Menton to Albergo Ca'Vittoria in Tigliole, we were met by a firmly shut, cast-iron gate. It turned out, we had been given the wrong address and name of our hotel. Fortunately the owner let us in and helped us sort things out. After phoning our contacts we were given new directions and ended up at the impressive 'Relais Il Borgo' where we were met by our friendly host, who helped us settle in. We were pleased to hear that we were expected for dinner and were poured a cool aperitivo in the courtyard.
The food and wine were excellent (organic ingrediƫnts, homemade pasta etc.) Eric said he'd had the best salad ever!

A cool dip in the pool before dinner.
