The house is nicely located if you rent a car in Trapani area. In 10 minutes you can go to Segusta and see the old ruins, 15 minutes to either Castlemarre or Alcamo Marina (both with great beaches) and 25-30 to the special Scopello town. Basically, if you want to travel around Sicily, this is a perfect homebase -- especially with children. They have chickens, cats, and goose. A nice open play area in front of the house and everything is gated. A really nice family vacation!
