We thoroughly enjoyed our week in Sicily. For check in, we were led to the villa (following in our hire car). We were grateful of this as on Apple Maps etc the location is not too accurate, the nearest location/road on maps will not take you directly to the villa. But, after following on that first trip, we had landmarks to remember the correct turns etc. The route to the villa is up steep winding roads, but, you cannot get that beautiful view or total peace without a drive out of the town - so we were pleased with our choice. This does mean that a car is essential though really.
We found ‘market scopello’ to be very helpful, a 10 minute drive away for a little supermarket and there is also a nice restaurant next door where you can get pizza/pasta to takeaway or eat in. All the food was lovely!
We were grateful of air con in each of the bedrooms, this made for a comfortable sleep - but there is no air con for the kitchen/dining area. The pool was lovely and also large family table.
