We had a wonderful stay at Gelso Fardella (Baglio '800). the house is truly in the countryside with spectacular sunset views over the fields as far as the lights of Erice and the Egadi Islands. We visited Scopello, Trapani (with boat tours), Marsala, the salt plains, Segesta and several beaches. All were within 30mins-1hour drive so it is a good base for visiting the area.
We were made very welcome by the host Daniele (in Giorgio's absence) and caretakers Vito and Donatella. They welcomed us with drinks and nibbles, and as we were arriving on a Sunday they even left us some provisions for breakfast which was very thoughtful. Throughout the week Vito was very helpful and gave us local tips (via Google translate!).
The villa itself is as beautiful as shown in the pictures. The eating area with BBQ and pizza oven was brilliant and shaded through most meal times. There are several areas to sit so there is always somewhere shady and in the evening you can sit with and aperitif watching the sunset.
The pool is deep enough to dive and is next to the eating area so you can be chatting while still supervising teenagers. Speaking of which the table football, ping pong and pool table were a real hit.
The only thing I would point out is that the directions get came via Airbnb and maps showed the wrong turning. Tha ctual turning is just before the one shown (in the Salemi-Trapani direction).
All in all we would highley recommend the villa .
