Casa Petra is itself a work of art, carved into the stone slopes of Modica and finished with a fine eye to detail. I arrived into town by bus and was kindly picked up by Giancarlo, who helps to manage the property, and is a wealth of information on the town. The house is bigger than I anticipated, with each room creating a unique ambiance that can only be described through experience. The views are stunning, with the terrace looking out over Modica to the Church of San Giorgio and the Castello dei Conti. The location could not be more convenient, located just up a set of stairs near the Church of San Pietro and all of the restaurants of Corso Umberto. I would highly recommend to all in search of a true Modican experience.
