Less than half a kilometre from the forest-lined beach of Santa Maria del Focallo, this white-painted villa sits on Sicily's southern tip. With free bicycles at hand, perhaps you'd like to see the scenery by cycling around the coastline here. For a memorable day trip, we highly recommend making the eight-kilometre drive into Ispica – a beautiful Baroque city where many Italians flock for its grand Holy Week processions. Roll out of bed from a restful night's sleep, then wander into this open-plan living space to prepare a breakfast feast. Maybe you'll start each morning sunbathing by the private pool and discussing your daily itinerary on the patio. After a fun excursion, we can imagine you'll be itching to slide into your outdoor kitchen. What lovelier way is there to spend your evening than gathering everyone for a barbecue supper at sunset? Even better, this cosy fireplace is the perfect spot to huddle up for movie nights during the winter months.
