The house has a great garden an equipment especially when you travel with kids. Massimo and his wife (the owners) make you feel very comfortable and are very helfpful. The house is in the outskirts of Avola. You defininetly need a car to get around. But the location is great to explore Avola, Noto, Siracusa, Ragusa and Marzamemi. The closest beach would also be a short drive of a few minutes. We can highly recommend this place and felt really comfortable.
