Nestled in the middle of the Modica countryside in Sicily, this beautiful villa wraps you in stunning views of the surrounding countryside and the coast, granting complete privacy and peace from the rest of the world. Go for a dip in the infinity pool and dine alfresco on the veranda, surrounded by the beautiful Mediterranean greenery and olive trees in the lush garden. The open-plan living and dining area is upstairs at this home, and most of the bedrooms are downstairs, meaning you can slide open the glass doors to the panoramic terrace while you're cooking or relaxing on the sofa, and let the sunlight in. It also means access straight to the pool from four of the five bedrooms, so you can roll out of bed and onto one of the sun loungers to work on your tan if it suits you. Though secluded, you'll be just a short drive away (3 kilometres) from the golden sands of the beautiful Pozzallo beach, as well as the town of Pozzallo where you can find an array of great local restaurants, or explore ancient ruins like the Torre Cabrera. In the evening return to your gorgeous home and have a drink on... the terrace, overlooking the illuminated pool under a blanket of stars.
