Inside

accommodation at Casa Romito is on two floors.

On the ground floor, the entrance hall leads on one side to the lovely country kitchen, with terracotta floors, a fireplace, a breakfast table and access to a dining terrace. To the other side of the entrance hall is a large living area, whose white-painted beamed ceilings, comfy sofas, great fireplace and light-giving French windows make for an extremely relaxing and comfortable atmosphere. An arch leads from the living area to the dining room, though you will probably take most of your meals al fresco on the surrounding terraces. A shower room completes the accommodation on the ground floor.

A flight of stairs leads from the entrance hall to the first floor, where there is a large central hallway-cum-sitting area and five bedrooms: two doubles, two double-twins, and a small single room, which is available on request for a younger child. There are also three shower rooms, two of which are en-suite. Decoration throughout is very stylish, with a mixture of pastel colours, contemporary restorations and antique furniture.

Outside

Casa Romito is sits in extensive grounds that fan out for several hectares. Fruit orchards, centuries-old oaks and chestnuts, and a wide variety of other luxuriant flora cocoon the property in an atmosphere of rural tranquillity. Wooded hills rise above and panoramic sea views stretch out before you.

Much of the grounds are laid to grass, so there's plenty of space for fun and games. In the middle, just below an original well-head, is the lovely pool, whose decked surroundings, umbrellas and sun loungers provide an attractive spot in which to relax and unwind.

Furnished terraces run in front of and around the sides of the house, incorporating a fabulously convivial al fresco dining area outside the kitchen. It is here, looking out to sea, and in an atmosphere of undisturbed tranquillity, where you can enjoy lazy lunches, sunset aperitivi, and long dinners under Sicily's starry skies.

Parts of the route to this property are unpaved and a little rough. We therefore recommend guests hire a car with high ground clearance.

The discreet and helpful owners may stay within the grounds and will not disturb in any way, unless of course you need local advice.

This property is surrounded by countryside, some of which is unfenced and may include drops or steep slopes. We therefore recommend that younger children are supervised by an adult when exploring the grounds.

There is very limited or no mobile phone reception at this property.
