Senetosa’s curls

The Senetosa area is rich in built heritage: the lighthouse, the Genoese Tower, which we love to come back to because we all have that feeling that it’s always been there. Sheepfolds, Orii, wheat fields, terraces and low dry-stone walls follow one another along the way, on these paths through wild, unspoilt landscapes.
