Boasting enchanting views across the countryside to Mount Erice and beyond, this comfortable villa in western Sicily is a place for taking it slow and steady. Inside, exposed stone, timber beams and dark wood create a warm and inviting atmosphere. There are plenty of nooks for curling up with a good book as well as a convivial recreation room complete with billiards table and kitchenette for when you fancy entertaining.
Spend warm days outside, floating about in the sun-soaked pool before devouring fresh bread with pecorino on the terrace, waiting eagerly as the grillardin of your group tends to the sizzling barbecue. After a good feasting, take the ten-minute drive into Trapani for its bustling Via Garibaldi and tranquil Villa Margherita Park. If a beach day is on the cards, Spiaggia di San Giuliano is around fifteen minutes away by car.
Ash-topped Mount Etna rises from the heart of Sicily, lending a fiery flair to this sun-kissed island to the south of Italy. The volcanic terroir is perfect for grape, tomato and olive growing and family-run restaurants make the most of juicy beefsteak tomatoes drenched in olive oil, washed down with a glass of sweet Malvasia or fruity Novello.
There are plenty of dining spots to choose from in the buzzing cities of Palermo, Catania and Syracuse. Palermo itself is the capital where you’ll find ancient Byzantine churches, ruined palaces and a 12th-century Cathedral. The ancient port city of Catania sits in the shadow of Etna and trails lead from here to the summit.
Piazzas are filled with restaurants and bars, and the weekly fish market sells the freshest catch of the day. While Syracuse on the Ionian Sea is steeped in Greek myth and legend. Away from the cities, Sicily’s coastline is dotted with villas that have stood for centuries and beaches with turquoise shallows.
