Beautiful and charming house, lots of space inside and outside the house. Great garden and pool. We really enjoyed Corrado's hospitality and his great restaurant tips. Thank you so much! Kisses and a hug to Spillo and the cats. We miss them all!
We had a great stay for two beautiful weeks. The big pool with the view to the sea was amazing , so we had a lots of fun. Our childs loved the big garden with many fruit trees and also the pets. Going back home we've many discussions why we don't could have a dog too. Many thanks to Corrado for the sight-seeing tips and the warm welcome! May we see you again.
If you are looking for peace and quiet with lovely views and a pool, look no further. We enjoyed our week and saw some lovely sights, good food and beaches nearby
A taste of rural life in Sicily within easy reach of beautiful towns and cities. Lovely lemon trees surround the property. Spilo, the resident dog, is a bonus!
Our stay was perfect! The house is lovely, set amongst a sea of lemon trees. There was plenty of room for the seven people in our group and plenty of outdoor space. We loved using the pizza oven, which was amazing, and would have been content to spend most of our time on the property with the cutest dog in the world, Spillo, and the cats. However, we were given so many excellent suggestions of places to visit from Corrado that we managed to see quite a bit of Sicily’s south eastern region. We would happily return as we feel as though we just scratched the surface of amazing places to visit in Sicily. Thanks Corrado for everything! You were a wonderful host!
This is an excellent place to discover the area : you are close to many beautiful spots : Siracusa, Cava Grande, Vendicari, Noto... The house and garden are really charming , a great place to relax , and the swimming pool is a great plus ! Also Corrado was an incredible host , with a lot of attentions for us to help us visiting the best spots , eating the best food, drinking the best wine... We'll remember him for a long time. And, last but not least, the dog Spillo and all the cats were beloved by all the family , Spillo being acclaimed as the nicest dog of Sicily :-) Valerie Capron
Sicilian Paradise This villa is just heaven and in a perfect location for travelling to the nearby towns of Avola and Noto as well as the spectacular Cava Grande. The villa is so idyllic that you may not even want to venture out! Corrado made us feel so, so special and went over and above his duty to advise us about the area. He exudes Sicilian charm!! Take all of his advice as it will be invaluable. The local beaches are spectacular and you are only a short drive from the local shops which sell everything that you will need. The fruit and olive trees surround you and you have a herb garden directly outside your door. The sweet smell of jasmine and lavender radiates and intoxicates you. Spilo the dog and the cats brought so much entertainment for the children. They loved the fact that there were also 4 kittens which were usually sheltered under the rosemary bush. I would definitely recommend making up a pasta dish using the herbs outside whilst dancing around the kitchen, listening to Corrado's selection of CDs with a vino! I believe this is the best holiday of my life- only made so by the location, the people (especially Corrado) and the food. Very tearful leaving and will most definitely return. I cannot recommend this piece of heaven enough!!!
We were there with our 4 children. Already when getting out of the car the joy and reaction of the children was a dream. We had a very nice 2 weeks. The landlord is very friendly and helpful. The house corresponds to the pictures and we felt very comfortable. The highlight was the pool and the many animals.
We had an amazing time. Our children loved the pool and Spillo and the cats. The villa was lovely and the owner Corrado was very friendly and helpful. We would definetely recomend this villa.
Traveled in late April 2018 as a family of 4, staying for 7 days. The experience of staying in an authentic Sicilian agricultural setting (the local farm co-op harvested the potatoes from the adjacent property during our stay) in a converted farmhouse, provided a truly unique appreciation of what makes Sicily so attractive and special. The outdoor spaces around the farmhouse were outstanding with lots of variety and room for everyone to have their own space within the lemon orchard, the pool area or the various sheltered patios. My favourite feature was the secluded outdoor shower with great views of the mountains. It makes you want to never shower indoors again! The farmhouse looks to be a faithful conversion of a rustic farmhouse with out buildings. It was full of character, very clean and highly functional with lots of room for 4 people. The outdoor grill and pizza oven (using the available pruned lemon branches for fuel) were fun accessories. The location is close to Avola making it convenient to shop, dine out and readily access the wide variety of local historical (Noto etc.) and recreational sites (beaches etc.). The owner Corrado was readily available and provided lots of valuable info regarding local sites, restaurants etc. The rest of Corrado's team consisting of Spillo the dog and the various cats were fun to have around the property adding to the farm like ambiance. All in all, this rental complimented and enhanced a great holiday in Sicily.
