Sunshine and sea views are always a winning combination, and adding in this attractive Sicilian home to the mix takes it to the next level. This home can be found just outside of Cefalù, perched above a small bay of turquoise sea. The villa is modern and stylish with a cool and calm colour palette that lets the views outside do the talking. You can expect clean white tones and splashes of blue to focus on the coastal location. Everything you might need has been considered by experienced and thoughtful hosts, so your only job is to sit back, relax, and enjoy. The outside space is spectacular. A vast well-tended garden means there’s no shortage of sunbathing spots, and little ones can run around freely. The terrace is a lovely spot for alfresco dining, whether you’re tucking into a family breakfast of fresh fruit and pastries, or settling down for a feast of pasta and seafood in the evening. The villa has direct access to the rocky beach of the bay, so you can start each day with a swim in the clear blue sea. It takes nine minutes to walk to Spiaggia di Settefrati, where you can set up camp on the sand for a day of splashing in the shallows. Cefalù is a twelve-minute drive from the villa, and well worth the trip. Meander along the narrow streets eating gelato, and be sure to check out the Norman cathedral before popping into a trattoria for lunch.

About Cefalù

Thanks to its enviable location in the middle of the Mediterranean Sea, the town of Cefalù on the Tyrrhenian coastline of Sicily has had an eventful history, finding itself under the sway of the Byzantine Empire, Normans and Arabs at various moments in time – and even briefly playing host to a commune established by infamous British occultist Aleister Crowley in 1920.
