Masseria Gargallo has been conceived by its owner, a well-known jewellery designer, as a colourful and ingeniously inventive homage to Sicilian artistry and craftsmanship. The original features and floors of the property have been retained wherever possible, and furnishings, fabrics and fittings are a fascinating mix of the contemporary and the traditional. Outside, beautifully tended gardens wrap around the property, culminating in the pièce de résistance, an utterly irresistible pool.

The Area
Masseria Gargallo sits just outside the fascinating, historic and beautiful town of Syracuse, whose beating heart, the island of Ortygia, boasts one of Italy's loveliest piazzas and a maze of charming streets lined with independent shops, restaurants and bars. Neapolis, just outside the centre, is home to a fabulous archaeological site and museum, both of which we heartily recommend. Also within easy driving distance of Masseria Gargallo are the white sandy beaches of Fontane Bianche, and a cluster of must-see towns, including Noto, Modica and Ragusa. A little further afield but well worth the trip are Catania and Mount Etna.
