Designer chic immersed in the peace and quiet of Noto’s countryside... Stylish, essential and perfectly proportioned... I Lentischi’s owners, both successful designers, have created the kind of soothing, modern space we know that many of our clients yearn for. Uninterrupted tranquillity and undisturbed views make this a wonderful rural getaway, though Noto and the unspoilt beaches of Vendicari Nature Reserve are just a short drive away.

The Area
I Lentischi is set in rolling hills between the fascinating Baroque town of Noto and the beautiful natural reserve of Vendicari.
Noto is the most easterly of a chain of baroque towns now protected as a UNESCO World Heritage site. It is also perhaps the most perfect of the baroque towns, which were all rebuilt in flamboyant style following a major earthquake in 1693.
Vendicari nature reserve boasts some of the finest sandy beaches in Sicily, which are pleasingly under-populated even in the height of summer. Vendicari is also home to thousands of migrating flamingos, and sea turtles nest on its beaches.
If hiking in the hills is your thing, then there is some spectacular scenery in the rushing streams and waterfalls of Cassibile and at the Paleolithic burial sites in the dramatic valley of Pantalica.
Syracuse is just half an hour's drive away, and a day there is highly recommended to anybody spending a week or two at I Lentischi. A little further afield, the other baroque towns of Modica, Ragusa and Scicli are easily reachable in a day.
