Castles & Olive Groves

Holiday Rental Description

Step into history at this 17th-century Sicilian “baglio” which boasts plenty of character. This home has been wonderfully renovated, though you can still expect lots of traditional features. There’s plenty of space here for a family or group to unwind, with a studio-esque bedroom that offers a kitchenette. There are plenty of highlights here, with a pool surrounded by olive groves, an outdoor dining area, a library and a tennis court – just keep in mind this is shared with the co-owners of the property. The location puts you just a short drive away from Mazara, a local seaside town full of Baroque churches and eateries, while Tonnarella beach is around five miles away.

Home truths:
*This home is the ground-floor section of a 17th-century villa.
*The third bedroom also includes a kitchenette and operates like a studio apartment.
*Your host provides racquets and tennis balls for the tennis court. It is shared with the co-owners, who live on the villa's top floor (separated from the ground floor).
*This is a historic villa, so it may feel a little dated in parts.
