The house stands in the most charming area of Cefalù. Located just beyond the town, this is one of the most fascinating spots in Sicily. A wonderful view will magically appear in front of you as soon as you walk down the steps that lead to the sea. The beach located just below the house, whose entrance is reserved only to the owners of neighbouring villas, remains uncrowded even in the height of summer.

This charming and romantic small house is built in stone on a granite rock and is surrounded by a luxuriant Mediterranean garden. The house has thick stone walls and is fully immersed in vegetation which makes it cool even during the hottest summer days. The area is private and peaceful. Inside there is a living room with a fireplace and a dining table, a small kitchen and a small shower room with a toilet; on the attic floor there is a double bed (the area is open-plan without walls or doors to separate it from the living room) and, via a small door, access is gained to a bathroom with hand basin, toilet and bidet. The two sofas in the living room can easily be converted into additional beds suitable for two children or young adults.

Cefalù is an ideal starting point from which to tour the mid-west area of Sicily. After a forty minute drive on the highway you will reach Palermo where you can visit one of the most beautiful historic centres in the whole of Italy. In the opposite direction, along the highway towards Messina, within thirty minutes you will arrive at Santo Stefano di Camastra, a village renowned for its beautiful ceramics.
Cefalù stands at the foot of the Madonie National Park and within a few minutes you can reach its green mountain slopes and visit the many medieval towns that are located within the Park. We recommend a visit to the towns of Castelbuono, Polizzi Generosa, Petralia Soprana and Sottana and Collesano where there is a recently-established golf course "Le Madonie" surrounded by olive and lemon trees.
