A Hillside Jewel

Holiday Rental Description

Immerse yourself in the heart of the Modica countryside at this oh-so-chic villa with a hefty dose of culture on the side. With some of the region's most beautiful historic sites (we're talking Unesco heritage standards, folks) just a short drive away, it won't take long to get up close and personal with Sicilian life. Get off to a flying start in the Baroque hillside jewel of Ragusa Ibla (a short drive away) with its stone streets and postcard-perfect views. And even closer you'll find Modica, the authentically Sicilian town with hilly avenues of Baroque palaces and churches leading up to its castle.

Back home, after days of exploring, that hydromassage pool has rest and reset written all over it – as does that expansive veranda for sundowner cocktails and balmy night barbecues. On cooler evenings, take things inside beneath the vaulted ceilings of the stylish living space. That crackling fire is beckoning you to hunker down with a full-bodied glass of Nero D'avola and after-dinner treats you picked up from Modica's master chocolatiers. And when it's finally time to lay your head, each bedroom with its own shower room is as elegant as the next, with lofty ceilings and exposed stone walls bringing all the wow factor.
