Spring break visit

The "issue" with such a welcoming home is that you have to chose between staying in the hamoc, or lying in a comfy chair and visiting the external beauties of Sicilia! Lucia's home is a perfect stay for people visiting the area: 25min from the Villa, 45min from the Valle dei templi, many beautiful views of the surrounding nature... The house is well equipped and furnished, and so lovely to stay in. Thank you again for the warm welcome and all the details, Lucia!

About the host

Hosted by LUCIA

Hi I am Lucia, I take care of my property and love to meet my guests with whom a beautiful friendship is often born. I will be happy to provide all the information and advice to enjoy the house and the surrounding area. With my staff we try to make the spaces of the house, the verandas, the garden and the park with walnut trees pleasant and comfortable.

Why they chose this property

This property has the advantage of being on one level, with three low steps. It is surrounded by beautiful flower beds, a small lawn, a citrus grove, and a walnut orchard. It is about 3 km from the village so you can reach it in five minutes when you feel like drinking a good espresso or having an aperitif at the bar. The narrow road is only traveled by the few homeowners in the area so you will not be disturbed by traffic noise. The entire property is surrounded by fencing, and the large parking lot and gate will be used only by guests. Privacy is absolute.

What makes this property unique

Guests during their stay will have the entire property at their disposal both internally and externally (10,000 square meters ). They will enjoy the silence and scents of the countryside. The location in the center of the island is really strategic because you have the opportunity to reach the highway in 15 minutes in the directions of Catania and Palermo. The distance to the beaches is about 40 minutes. In 5 minutes you can reach the towns of Pietraperzia and Barrafranca. In 20 to 30 minutes the towns of Piazza Armerina, Enna and Caltanissetta.
Verandas with wooden roofs, the large gazebo, the surrounding paved space equipped with swing, children's bikes, rocking chair, the driveway, the automatic gate, the large parking lot enrich the house and make it usable in any season.
The outdoor space offers various nooks and crannies for sunbathing, reading, playing cards, lying in the sun or simply relaxing while enjoying the silence.
The terrace above the house allows you to admire the town of Pietraperzia and its medieval castle, the Sanctuary of the Madonna della Cava and the neighboring villages. At night a wonderful starry sky!
