This small „Cava House“ is one of the most beautiful places we’ve ever been to!
We had the pleasure to stay there for 11 days – and we forgot the world for that amount of time. There is no cellphone coverage and the street down the valley is a little rocky, but you’ll get used to it. The house stands basically in the middle of nowhere, but nowhere in that case is a gorgeous place: the nature surrounding you, the birds singing, fresh air and this peaceful quietness really calm you down. The house is placed directly in „Cava d’Ispica“, an archaeological area, which can be explored by walking and climbing and is really exciting, especially for those interested in history.
The next beaches are probably 20 to 30 minutes by car. Also not that far is the „Riserva naturale di Vendicari“, where some of the most stunning sicilian beaches are located.
Mark has been a very nice, reliable and helpful host, who gave us all the information we needed and more! The house is clean and has everything you need – from kitchen equipment to deck chairs on the terrace.
All in all we’re just so thankful for our time there and really hope to come back some time…
Big big big recommendation for everyone looking for a traditional, solitary, nature-surrounded time in Sicily.
