The Sicily region
Sicily is the largest island in the Mediterranean and it’s a popular travel destination with a volcano, beaches, mountains, and centuries of history and tradition. The island is a year round destination. The long summer season will be ideal for beach lovers while Spring and Autumn season are the perfect time for mountain excursions, walks or cycling trips. Those who love skiing will enjoy from December to February the slopes of Vulcan Etna and Piano Battaglia in the Madonie Park.
Trapani / Castellammare del Golfo area
Castellammare del Golfo (pop. 15,000) is wonderfully positioned in a bay in the north-west of Sicily, just 15 minutes drive from the Greek temple of Segesta, from the famous Scopello cliffs, and from the specialist marine nature reserve of "Lo Zingaro". Years ago Castellammare del Golfo was an important centre for tuna fishing but today it is known for its spectacular location. The town is perfectly suited for those wanting to stay somewhere with atmosphere close to beaches, like those at Scopello, Lo Zingaro and San Vito Lo Capo. It is also the ideal starting point for several of the most interesting cultural and gastronomic tours through the provinces of Trapani, Palermo and Agrigento in Western Sicily, given the easy access by car and other means of local transport
How to get there
Fly direct to Palermo Airport with Ryanair from London Stansted or to Trapani from London Luton Easyjet from London Gatwick to Palermo Airport Car hire available at the airport.

Guestbook for Villa Franca
The holiday was wonderful! The accommodation was fabulous with everything we needed and of course the view was the most breath-taking one could wish for. Moreover, Franca and Lorenzo were excellent hosts; friendly, helpful and welcoming. We thoroughly enjoyed Sicily and plan to visit it again next year. Daniel Emerson
Myself and my husband stayed in Villa Franca in May. Franca and Lorenso were the sweetest couple you could meet. Very friendly and extremely generous. During our stay they gave us lovely fresh fruit and wine on two days. We were totally taken aback by their hospitality. It is a lovely place to stay and the weather is just georgeous. Will definitely return some day. Margaret and Brendan C from Dublin, Ireland,
We were very happy with the property and Francesa and her husband were lovely. They even gave us some of their own lemons and fruit and a bottle of wine! We had a lovely time and the views were spectacular. We would love to come back some day. Meredith J
