We have just got home from staying two weeks in this lovely located home. So peaceful with a beautiful pool and a fantastic view down to Noto. Tonino and his parents Paulo and Rosanna are fabulous hosts, very kind and attentive bringing us lovely edible treats. We saw so much of Sicily, Noto is only 15 minutes away, Syracuse is half an hour and the most amazing beaches in the Vendicari Nature Reserve are nearby. Avola is a lovely holiday town with wonderful beaches and easy beach parking. The restaurants serve delicious food and the dolci are to die for. We went to Etna and Taormina and the most amazing Roman Villa Casale. However it was very hot so take a hat and lots of water, suntan lotion and slow down to enjoy the sites, eating plenty of granita and ice cream is a must.
