Situated near the charming town of Salemi in the Trapani area of Sicily, this country villa epitomises Mediterranean charm. From the vine-covered pergola setting – perfect for alfresco meals and Italian aperitifs shaded from the sun to the private swimming pool and sun terrace – it's easy to unplug and unwind from the outdoor areas here. The inside also gives off quintessential Italy, and while the classic designs might not be to everyone's tastes, they certainly add to the authentic Sicilian aesthetic. Beyond the villa, the surrounding Trapani region offers attractions such as the beaches of Marsala, Scopello town, and Zingaro nature reserve.
