...cons - but each cottage has a small garden and access to a quiet beach with mesmerizing views of the medieval walled town of Portoferraio. It's also here that John Le Carré set part of his best-selling novel, The Constant Gardener, and in his author's note he urges readers to visit: "There is even an oil room [once used for crushing olives, now for wine tastings] where those in search of life's answers to life's great riddles may seek temporary seclusion."

The shallow “Sing Now” is a fun few hours, but it can be difficult to watch when it tries to strike a serious note.
