Overview
Tre Cantoni is the vacation for you if you are seeking privacy and seclusion. This original stone house is set in the heart of the countryside, surrounded by ancient olive groves and vineyards near the historic town of Scicli on the south coast of the Italian island of Sicily. Recently restored, this one-storey, detached villa has three spacious ensuite double bedrooms. It can comfortably accommodate up to six guests, ideal for a family holiday or a group of friends sharing.
The house is set on its grounds, surrounded by traditional dry stone walls, with a tropical shrub garden, a private swimming pool, and Mediterranean sea views. The eco-friendly villa has all the mod cons, including air conditioning in the bedrooms, Wi-Fi throughout, satellite television, and private parking. The interiors are delightfully rural, furnished in a classic, comfy style, and decorated in calm, neutral colours.
Enter the villa, where you will be welcomed by a light and airy living space with doors that give access to the sea view terrace. The timbered ceiling seating area has two sofas, coffee and side tables, and a flat-screen television for your entertainment. The flagstone kitchen is fitted with all the appliances you will need to cater for your stay, including an American-style family-size fridge freezer and that must-have morning coffee maker. An informal dining set is ideal for meeting for breakfast and discussing the day. There are three well-appointed bedrooms with double beds and ensuite bathrooms with showers, hand basins, and WCs. Two of the bedrooms have walk-in wardrobes.
A shaded veranda is home to an inviting sea view soft seating spot, where you can meet for sundowner cocktails and a six-seater dining set perfect for alfresco feasting, with dishes freshly grilled on the barbeque. Take the stone steps down to the lower terrace, where you will find an impressive, centrepiece Roman step-entry swimming pool surrounded by deep cushioned sun loungers with shady parasols.

Location
About the surrounding area of Tre CantoniTre Catoni is snuggled in the countryside, near to the town of Scicli, on the south coast of the Italian island of Sicily. The nearest international airport is in Comiso, just forty kilometres away, or Catania, a one hundred and forty-kilometre drive through scenic olive groves and vineyards to your holiday home.
The UNESCO World Heritage site of the old town of Scicli is known for its beautiful Baroque architecture, historical churches, and a nature reserve with canyons, lakes, and archaeological ruins. Here you will also find shops and stores with provisions for your stay and lots of welcoming cafes, bars, and restaurants serving traditional Sicilian dishes.
Sampieri is the nearest beach, a five-minute drive from the villa, renowned for its golden sand and crystal clear waters that are perfect for swimming and snorkelling. Further down the coast is Donnalucata, with a mix of sandy and rocky stretches, where you can practice your water sports skills.
Hike or bike the local trails to discover the flora and fauna, or improve your service at the nearby tennis club.
Visit the nearby towns of Modica and Ragusa, where you can sample the culinary delights of Sicilian cooking, local wines, and its famous chocolate.
Go further afield to see the archaeological wonders of the Valley of the Temples at Agrigento, the Greek theatre and limestone caves of Syracuse, and the Doric temples at Selinunte.
In the evening, feast off local seafood by the shores of the must-see town of Marina di Ragusa.
The villa is set in natural reserve, a park with free-roaming wildlife and other free-living animals such as donkeys (which are not dangerous) and cats. Safely fenced-in at a certain distance are the owners' horses, and at the boundary of the property, there is also an aviary. It is recommended, out of respect for nature and the reserve itself, that the various gates be closed at all times.

Highly recommend
Booked a lovely villa outside Scicli with all amenities you could need. The owner was on hand nearby should any problems arise. Pool area was lovely. Scenery and views from the property was gorgeous. Close to the beach and most of the baroque towns. Loved our sympathy in Sicily and highly recommend this property.
