Set amongst idyllic Sicilian countryside, this beautiful stone villa is an ideal base for those looking to combine the best of rural romance with the excitement of a coastal break. The home’s headlining feature is undeniably its wonderful outdoor space. Boasting a patio with wide-sweeping views of the rolling hills and the Mediterranean Sea, you’ll find yourself whiling away sunny hours in the private pool, catching some rays on the loungers and dining alfresco beneath the scenic pergola. At sunset, take a seat on the poolside chairs – a glass of wine in hand – and watch the sunset kiss the water’s edge. Inside, the home is all natural materials and whitewashed wood, with beamed ceilings and contemporary-meets-classic decor adding to its bright and cheerful welcome. Factor in the bathroom’s luxurious rainfall showers and the added privacy of having an external entrance to one of the bedrooms, and you’re all set for a blissful stay. When it comes to exploring the area, ask your host to arrange a food or wine excursion and venture out on one of the many tours on offer. Alternatively, hop in your car for a trip to the coast, with seaside beauty spots like Mazzaforno, Sant'Ambrogio... and Cefalù all vying for your attention.
