A lovely stay in a beautiful apartment! The highlight of our trip to Sicily! The host welcomed us when we arrived, showed us the essentials, gave us some tips and then left us to enjoy - although we were welcome to contact her had there been any problems during our stay. The apartment felt new, clean and well equipped. Unfortunately, the lack of daylight and warmth in November prevented us from enjoying the balcony or outside area but instead we curled up by the fire (wood provided!). This didn't prevent us from enjoying the stunning view of the Castellamare bay from the living room. The bedroom was spacious and the bed really comfortable. There were more than enough cooking utensils and it was really nice that leftover essentials like oil, salt and coffee (that's an essential in Italy!) have been kept for new guests. The apartment is outside of the town in a quiet, private location - but brilliantly placed for trips out to Trapani, Palermo or the Zingaro nature reserve with a car (highly recommended!). We hope to return soon in summer time - it would be the perfect place at which to survive the Sicilian heat!
