About this property

Converted farmhouse nestled in nature with private pool

An old farmhouse transformed into a Mediterranean villa with delicate and welcoming furnishings, with a private swimming pool and large green areas reserved for pure relaxation.

Villa Madera is a bright six bedrooms villa with natural and restful tones gathered all around the 15m private pool. Five of the six bedrooms have an independent entrance from the garden and a private bathroom with shower. The sixth bedroom is on a mezzanine.
Immersed as it is in its 3 hectares of garden bordering a wood, the villa is the ideal place to recharge your batteries by breathing deeply the scents of Sicilian nature.

The very particular city of Caltagirone, with its baroque buildings, its famous tradition of ceramics, but also its restaurants and shops, is only 7 km away. At 40 km you will find the famous beaches of Ragusa. Archaeological sites of immense value, such as the Greek temples of Agrigento and the Roman Villa del Casale, the Baroque masterpieces in the Val di Noto, and natural wonders such as the Scala dei Turchi can all be reached between 30 and 90 minutes by car.

Renovated with eco-sustainable materials and technologies, Villa Madera is an oasis where you can meet up with your family by the pool, where you can reconcile with nature in an immense garden and where you can start to enjoy the art of a rich and extraordinary Sicilian past.

N.B. The owner lives in a cottage nearby the villa and it has 3 sweets dogs who do not bother their guests unless you would like to cuddle them. If you are afraid of animals please let us know and they will be kept inside during your stay.

N.B. On request, it is possible to add a single bed in two double bedrooms or a third single bed in the mezzanine.

- Beekeeping courses ( 2 people groups - about 90 minutes )
- Dinner in villa / Cooking classes

The private pool measures 15x5 m. It goes from 1.25 to 1.50 m deep and it is open all year round.

Review for stay from 09 September 2023 to 23 September 2023
Carmelo und Antonio waren wirklich sehr gastfreundliche, serviceorientierte Gastgeber. Sie haben darauf geachtet, dass es uns an nichts fehlt. Und sie waren gleich zur Stelle, wenn wir etwas brauchten. Die Unterkunft ist wie beschrieben. Natürlich ist das Mobiliar nicht mehr neuwertig aber es ist in Ordnung. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Lilly - die Haushündin war immer bei uns und hat aufgepasst. Will - der große Wolfshund war auch ein guter Wachhund. Wer gegen Hunde allergisch ist, sollte darauf achten, dass Lilly gerne ins Haupthaus rein geht. Alles in allem war es ein sehr schöner Urlaub und der Pool ist einfach der Hammer! Wir kommen gerne wieder und möchten uns herzlich bei den Gastgebern für diesen tollen Service bedanken.

We really enjoyed ourselves, in this beautiful villa! The kitchen has everything you need and more. The rooms are comfortable, clean and decorated. The pool is big and fun. The landscaping and pots add a lot of color and interest. Lily the dog is charming and Romeo the cat is the real king! Highly recommended !

Review for stay from 17 September 2022 to 24 September 2022
Deze villa is een ideale plek om met een grote groep tot rust te komen. Een afgelegen plek met veel sfeer en charme. Alles wat je nodig hebt is aanwezig, zowel in de keuken als in de slaapkamers en badkamers. Het verblijf werd erg mooi opgeleverd en wij voelden ons gelijk welkom door bij aankomst een heerlijke risottobal en biertjes te krijgen. Ook kregen we alvast ontbijt voor de eerste dag, erg handig! De host is goed bereikbaar en vindt het leuk om mee te denken. Zo heeft Ninni voor ons pizza gehaald, omdat het ons niet lukte om in het Italiaans te bestellen. Kortom, een geslaagde week met een mega zwembad en een villa die ik iedereen kan aanbevelen! P.s. We gaan de lieve honden missen ;)
