Although it is an half an hour drive to Palermo, there are some great advantages to this location:
Because it's in the hills the air is cool in the evening.
Besides, because it's the lower floor and the house in built on the side of a hill, inside it's not hot, even without airco.
The house has a terrace with a great view and a (albeit small) swimming pool.
Note: the house is difficult to find. Google maps leads to the wrong address. Take the owners offer to pick you up.
We met at Piazza San Martino, which is before pizzeria Di Chiara.
