Set among palms and olive trees, this traditional Sicilian villa is situated in Castroreale – voted one of the most beautiful villages in Italy. Though the interior is somewhat dated and a couple of the bedrooms are on the small side, the home has everything you need for a comfortable stay. The large garden features a terrace and barbecue, as well as a private pool, boasting stunning views of the Aeolian Islands. The closest shop is a five-minute walk away if you want to cook up a storm or head to Castroreale to indulge in some local delicacies.

Home truths:
*While one of the bathrooms isn’t photographed, we expect the style and quality to be consistent with the rest of the home. For those with reduced mobility, there's a ground floor bedroom and bathroom here.
*The swimming pool isn't fenced. If you're bringing little ones, they'll need to be supervised at all times. The pool is only open on request between 1st November and 31st March.
*Due to this home's location, we recommend hiring a car to get the most out of your stay. There’s free parking for up to three cars at the property. 
*Well-behaved pets are welcome to accompany you during your stay. Dogs have previously been at this home, so this means it may not be suitable for people with severe allergies.
