The Casa degli Avi in Modica in the historic center: Casa Donna Giovanna
The house renovated with the use of natural and typical materials of the local tradition such as terracotta, lime, cement, exposed stone of Modica, wood and wrought iron, has sober and essential furnishings, made up of objects typical of the local tradition. The Donna Giovanna house can accommodate up to 4 people being equipped with a double bed on the mezzanine and a sofa bed on the ground floor inserted in the living area. It is equipped with all services and comforts (kitchenette, minibar, air conditioning or ventilated, TV, WI-FI, etc.) ideal for those who want to live their holiday independently and freely.
It is characterized by having a unique masonry kitchenette, in terms of workmanship and aesthetics, made with materials of the best local artisan tradition, and able to satisfy the guest, the temptation of the throat, the need to savor on the spot the taste of typical recipes of the Shire such as to prepare yourself a cup of hot chocolate or a herbal tea with thyme or sage of the Hybleans.
Common services include linen change, scheduled cleaning and identity breakfast on request.
To make known the myths, the history, the archaeological sites, the shores, the natural areas and the most enchanting places of this wonderful part of Sicily is our commitment. Love for this land is the guiding thread of our action.
We organize for our guests tours and guided visits, from the magnificent cities of art such as Modica, Ragusa Ibla, Scicli, Noto, Syracuse, Caltagirone, Palazzolo Acreide, to the uncontaminated natural reserves such as Cava d'Ispica, the canyon of Cava Grande, the Vendicari beaches as well as the places of Montalbano. We also provide the best food and wine and artisan excellence of the area and a vintage car for night tours in the historic center.
Entering the Casa Donna Giovanna, one of Le Case degli Avi, allows you to experience and smell the scent of the past that rises from the subsoil to the surface, where entrenched villages existed, the first examples of stable settlements, where the techniques of collecting water were developed. In this house, stone and rock, together with man, have found an imaginative architect in the water, surprisingly drawing a world under trace, no less extraordinary than the baroque one, made of underground cavities that cross, branch, explode in drugs lithic architectures, constituting a context of singular beauty, which with its cavities, large and small, natural or artificial, testifies the history of the Consolo district and its inhabitants.
