The Location
About the location
Set between the mountains and the sparkling turquoise sea along Sicily’s south coast, you will be ideally placed to discover a range of spectacular landscapes and towns. Porto Empedocle and Agrigento are just a short bike ride or car journey away, as are the incredible UNESCO listed Scala dei Turchi (Turkish steps) which showcase a spectacular series of natural white sloping steps that greet the crystal clear sea. This stunning rocky cliff that’s world-famous for its spectacular colours is just 1.5 km from the property.
You can also discover the exceptional UNESCO heritage archaeological site, Valley of the Temples, which is easily accessed just a short drive away or explore the nearby coast with Majata beach just 7 minutes by car.
More than just a beautiful destination, the region is home to famous Italian writer, Andrea Camilleri, whose short stories follow the adventures of detective Salvo Montalbano. Foodies can also follow the footsteps of Andrew Graham Dixon and Giorgio Locatelli, exploring some of the best culinary locations from their BBC series, ‘Sicily Unpacked’.
You’ll be able to enjoy pure relaxation during your stay. Wake naturally to the sounds of a nearby rooster or spend your evenings stargazing from the comfort of your backyard. Thanks to the location of the villa, at nighttime you can see the stars very clearly as they light up the sky.
If you don’t feel like cooking after a long day of adventures, there are a number of Mediterranean restaurants close by (around a seven-minute drive) or opt for takeaway for a quick and easy meal at home. This holiday home is perfect if you’re looking to escape it all and unwind. Book now to see for yourself.
