Villa Rassabbia was the first of 5 places we visited across Sicily and Italy this summer and it remains my favourite.
The property has been exquisitely renovated and the grounds - with a pool that's much bigger than the photos suggest - are amazing.
The Villa is tucked away and totally private but offers easy access to the local town of Frigintini and the beautiful towns of Modica and Ragusa (go to the 2 star Michelin restaurant Duomo for a great value fixed price lunch).
Scicli and Punta Secce are also very attractive and will be instantly recognisable to any fans of Sicilian TV detective, Montalbano.
Finally, I would like to thank Liliana for being an exceptional host. Especially, for responding so quickly when we managed to lock ourselves out but mainly for her grace, friendliness and helpfulness.
We will definitely be back.
