It was lovely to stay outside the town surrounded by olive trees. The dinner provided in the restaurant was excellent and beautifully cooked and served.
The family do a great job looking after the property and their guests
First of all I need to say we didn't actually stay at the B and B! There had been a double booking and we stayed elsewhere in the end. But we were treated very kindly by the owners of Giucalem and we also ate there breakfast once and dinner twice and the food was great. The family actually ran us around quite a bit if we went there to eat they came to pick us up and took us back. They were really lovely. I think this B and B would be best if you have a car, we didn't and being out of the town would have been tricky as there is no bus going that way.
A well run farm house in a lush garden away from noise but easy to reach the town and the location of beautiful mosaics. Family run, clean and with charm. Breakfast, homemade was excellent. We felt at home and were welcome as family guests, not customers, the great hospitality of the people of Sicily! Highly recommended
The ensuite room was a good size, clean and well furnished with air conditioning; The bed comfortable; The staff friendly & helpful -- despite me not speaking a word of Italian; The breakfasts generous beyond the point of excess; The gardens, vegetable plot, olive groves and fruit orchards a delight to be in.
However the constant noise of many local dogs barking at all times of day and night, Neighbouring kids on motor bikes riding up and down the lane for hours;. The nearby truly awful karaoke singer at a volume to raise the dead. All mean I won't recommend the place to anyone who likes a bit of peace and quiet.
Clean, spacious room, quiet rural setting, helpful staff, decent breakfast. Staff speaks little English, but that was OK.

Pleasant but needs some attention
A warm welcome and very good breakfast. Access to the rooms, many a long way from the car parking area, is down slopes, mostly on gravel paths. Some of the room fittings need minor maintenance.

Hard to communicate with hosts unless your Italian is good. Setting is in a big garden on the edge of town. Wifi code dos. It work and no one could help. Breakfast was great at the big table. Nice homemade jams, ETA.
Malgré la chaleur l'endroit est un agréable oasis de fraîcheur. Rien à critiquer sur les chambres. Excellent petit-déjeuner dans la belle salle de repas. Nous conseillons de prendre le repas du soir sur place. C'est très très bon,.
Excellent séjour. Les hôtes sont d’une gentillesse! Et le repas du soir est succulent, de délicieux produits et préparations authentiques. Bref une maison d’hôte qu’on vous recommende chaudement. Et en plus à 5 min de la villa romana del Casale.

Grazie per avere condiviso con noi la vostra esperienza nella nostra struttura. E' stato un vero piacere avervi ospiti e spero di rivedervi presto.
La posizione è suggestiva, in una casa immersa nel verde con orto, anche se non propriamente centrale ma comunque comoda. Stanza regolare e buona colazione.
Les chambres sont réparties sur la propriété et dans le bâtiment principal. L'accueil est excellent par le fils de Giusepe qui est aux petits soins. Le petit déjeuner est copieux avec des fruits frais, des produits maisons et d'autres. Nous avons bien dormi.
Un accueil très chaleureux dans une famille typiquement sicilienne. Le cadre est agréable, les chambres simples mais propres et spacieuses.
Le petit déjeuner est EXCEPTIONNEL!!! Au tant en salé qu'en sucré avec une bonne partie de produits faits maison,de loin le meilleur de notre séjour en Sicile. Je recommande vivement ce B&B!
Trotz des leichten Regens (Ausnahme auf Sizilien) hatten wir einen warmen Empfang, sogar mit etwas Wein von eigenem Rebberg. Auch der Frühstück war köstlich mit selbergemachten ( von der 'nonna') Konfitüren und vieles mehr. Uns hat der Aufenthalt im Häuschen mit dem Blick auf Garten sehr gut gefallen!
