| Suitability |
|
|

The many steps in the building and relatively steep access from the village pose difficulties for those with mobility restrictions. Santi Terzi - and the town of San Gemini - provide a wonderful setting for a wedding or special event, and the owner of the palazzo would be happy to help in the planning.
