Surrounded by spectacular scenery, this villa in Sicily is a picturesque place to relax and unwind. It’s in a tranquil spot a short drive from the coast, so beach days are definitely on the agenda. Castellammare del Golfo is nearby too, where you can wander the historic streets and sample the town’s excellent eateries. Staying at home is just as enjoyable here, with a sunny swimming pool and a shaded patio for barbecues. It’s a great base for adventures around this captivating corner of the island – or for simply taking it easy.
