Out of Africa
Petite Afrique emerges gracefully from its terraced grounds, a gentle addition to its surroundings. The beautifully designed interiors are a joy to inhabit, while the outside areas offer numerous options for al fresco living, together in conviviality, or alone in tranquil privacy.

Petite Afrique sits in a panoramic position overlooking the undulating hills surrounding Noto, not far from the beautiful beaches of Vendicari Nature Reserve.
Noto is the most easterly of a chain of baroque towns that were built from scratch after the terrible earthquake of 1693. Along with its neighbours, Modica, Ragusa and Scicli, it forms the UNESCO World Heritage Site of the Val di Noto.
The coastline around Italy's southernmost point is flanked by mile upon mile of sandy beaches, many of which, including those of Vendicari, are just an easy drive from Petite Afrique.
Slightly further afield, but highly recommended, is Syracuse, once the mightiest city in Magna Graecia. Its archaeological site and island centre, Ortigia, are fascinating.
Last but not least, If hiking in the hills is your thing, then there is some spectacular scenery to explore in the rushing streams and waterfalls of the Cassibile gorge and the Paleolithic burial sites in the dramatic valley of Pantalica.

Petite Afrique was just perfect for us: great outside areas and those fabulous views exceeded our expectations. It's modern, open-plan, light and airy, and well-equipped. We would return.

The villa met and exceeded our expectations. The location was very peaceful and with a garden, provided plenty of space, greenery and shade from the sun. Lots of seating outside meant we could spend time in the villa and enjoy many wonderful evenings, having supper and wine and gazing at the view.
