We absolutely loved staying here! Paolo's girlfriend Lucie, who spoke excellent English, let us into the villa and after we parked the car on the driveway she immediately gave us glasses of locally-made wine to make us feel welcome. As we drank our wine she showed us around the beautiful house and told us of all the idyllic sights we could see in the area the next few days, while the stars slowly started appearing in the night sky. The house is located fairly remotely amid the gently sloping Sicilian hills, which means there is very little light and noise pollution at night. Haven't slept this well in ages! We also loved meeting the other guests staying at the house and talking to them at the dinner table over a bottle of limoncello. The house and the rooms are very spacious and clean and it was great that we could cook there ourselves, it really felt like a home away from home. We visited the Valle dei Templi and the Scala dei Turchi from here, both very easily reachable by car from this location in about 30 minutes. And if you need supplies Grotte is close by for supermarkets. Very, very highly recommended for those who want to get a more calm, rural view of Sicily!
