Masseria Pernice
An old country masseria that has been restored; marvellous natural environment; swimming      pool; close to Palermo
12 Sleeps

The Masseria Pernice is the property of a family of Sicilian aristocrats and lies on a 135 hectare estate of vineyards, olive groves and pastureland.
The farmhouse, or baglio, was built at the beginning of the 20th century and has a classic Sicilian-style internal courtyard. The four apartments facing the main farmhouse were used by workers during the grape and olive harvests and have been restored according to the principals of bio-architecture, and decorated with family heirlooms, Sicilian ceramics and antique prints.
The baglio retains its traditional cobbles, and its pale pink walls are covered with bougainvillea, jasmine, roses and geraniums, creating an atmosphere which is at the same time simple, welcoming and peaceful. There is a salone – open to all guests — created within what was once the granary. From here, you pass into a splendid garden set against hills covered with pines and eucalypti, where you will find a large swimming pool (14m x 7m) where you can keep cool in the heat of the summer, as well as a shady patio and an area for barbeques.

Il Piccolo Casale
Ancient olive press with panoramic views of the Aeolian Islands; swimming pool

Sleeps 4/6

The nucleus of the ancient farmhouse is a 17th century watchtower that was later converted into an olive press.
It remains a typical Sicilian casale, part of it designed to meet the needs of the farm, the other part a refined living space for its landed gentry owners , with little formal garden and antique majolica tiles on its floors.
The current owners have retained the original structure, restored the ancient stone-vaulting, and used natural pigments on the walls, yet have transformed the house into one that has all modern comforts. The spacious living room has a fireplace and a large window with lovely views over the lawn and swimming pool to the Tyrhenian seaand the Aeolian Islands. There is also an extremely well-equipped kitchen , and each elegant bedroom has an ensuite bathroom. Piccolo Casale has a lovely location, secluded and verdant, yet it is just 500 metres from the sea – perfect for anyone who likes to swim, yet wants peace and quiet at home.

La Zagara
Staff-equipped villa in the Catania area, pool, tennis court

Zagara lies in one of the most beautiful corners of Sicily, among the luxuriant citrus groves of the plain of Catania between Mount Etna and the sea, on an estate of around 120 hectares. Most of the land is devoted to the production of highly prized varieties of organic oranges, mandarins and clementines, but on its fringes woods extend to the slopes of Monte San Basilio.
The main house has been recently restored. Great pains have been taken to retain architectural features typical of the area, while at the same time incorporating every modern comfort. A magnificent swimming pool, a sauna and a tennis court(where you can also play at night) add the final touch to a stay in this splendid and luxurious villa.
The villa is located on the plain of Catania in the triangle between the towns of Scordia, Lentini and Palagonia.

Villa Oasi – Vendicari
Sleeps 8
Features: Spartan elegance within the magnificent Vendicari nature reserve

For those who love nature, the Vendicari reserve is a true paradise.
However,    you could visit the reserve for years, without ever noticing this enchanting villa, so perfectly in harmony is it with the landscape that surrounds it.
More than anything, this is because the villa has been there for centuries, part of an ancient farm overlooking Vendicari’s salt lakes and their numerous migratory birds. It is an authentic country house, surrounded by vast fields, rebuilt with flawless sensitivity and respect for the unique landscape in which it is set. This is a delicate and minimalist restoration, yet one that is functional and perfectly adapted for anyone wanting a calm and tranquil holiday amid one of Europe’s most enchanting natural oases. For example, an ancient drinking trough has been transformed into a swimming pool (2m x 10m).
Whitewashed walls and simple rustic furniture of distressed wood suffuse the house with the atmosphere of a Sicilian country house of many years ago. Add to this the space and light of this landscape, and you have everything you need for a unforgettable holiday.
