Home description
The B & B is located in a restored 1800's Sicilian farmhouse situated in the Park of the Madonie Mountains. The accommodation is situated perfectly amongst olive and citrus groves, vineyards and natural woodlands. A wonderful place to relax amongst the natural beauty of the countryside, at the same time enjoying the sensational seaviews and the breathtaking sunsets over the Rock of Cefalù and out along the coast of Sicily.
The farmhouse has been tastefully restored maintaining its wonderful historic stone exterior walls. Touches of the handmade Sicilian tiles and ceramics have been added to create an enchanting atmosphere.
For the ideal autumn holiday go mushroom picking in the Madonie Mountains or join the locals with the olive picking.
