Vincenzo and his family were exceptionally friendly, welcoming and hospitable. We were warmly welcomed upon arrival and given a tour of their very well equipped accommodation. The house is beautifully decorated, very clean and comfortable. They made us feel at home and assisted with all our queries regarding the area, recommending nearby towns and beaches to visit, restaurants, mini golf for the children and other notable places of interest nearby. The accommodation is well situated and perfect for visiting the breath-taking medieval town of Erice on the mountain overlooking Valderice, and also close to Tripani, Scopello, San Vito Lo Capo, and a short drive to Castellamare del Golfo. The beaches were wonderful and the scenery truly spectacular, particularly the drive up the mountain from Valderice to Erice overlooking the most amazing coastline. Their estate (with an astounding array of fruit trees and other plantations) is beautiful, with spectacular views across the countryside. It is a peaceful and lovely place which we would recommend highly to anyone wishing to visit some of the most beautiful parts of Sicily. Our children especially loved being given a tour of their grounds in their tractor - where we were able to taste and sample their delicious home grown produce. They also kindly gave us samples of their home made marmalade, fruit, nuts, and delicious home cooked traditional Sicilian food. Their hospitality is unmatched and we had a truly enjoyable and memorable stay in their accommodation. Our children were sad to leave when it was time to depart at the end of our vacation. We would very much like to return for another visit in the future. The place and the people made a very special and lasting impression on us. We would very much like to thank Vincenzo and the Bica family for their immense kindness and remarkable hospitality. Our stay surpassed all expectations, thank you!
