About this property

Independent villa surrounded by greenery, wonderful view of the Gulf;

Villa located in one of the most panoramic areas of Scopello, within 4000 square meters of property, ideal for those who love tranquility and relaxation; who love to dine outdoors in direct contact with nature, lying down in the large porch, admiring, on full moon evenings, the suggestive spectacle of the lamparas reflecting on the sea below, intoxicated by the persistent smell of jasmine that pervades the air. A place where you can find sensations, scents, colors in every season. A place to find yourself. The house has two furnished verandas, one of which is covered and a patio with an equipped kitchen, with barbecue and wood oven. Inside there is a dining-living room furnished with ethnic and antique furniture with a fireplace corner and various sofas, an equipped built-in kitchen, another sitting room with sofa and armchairs, a double bedroom with built-in wardrobe, bedroom with two beds, double bathroom with shower. The owner will welcome you with a welcome lunch.


Borgo di Scopello: To visit the splendid seventeenth-century village, with shops, restaurants, bars, where you can buy typical products. It stands on a hill overlooking the sea, with its suggestive stacks that lap the large tonnara, active until a few years ago. To visit 'the reserve of the gypsy', near the tonnara, 8km of naturalistic paradise passable on foot or on horseback, along paths dug into the mountain among pines, holm oaks, gorse and dwarf palms, and stop in the many coves to dive into the clear waters and crystal clear. Scopello favorite destination for many excursions: to the 'Archaeological park of segesta', with its Greek temple and theater where to attend Greek shows and tragedies; the medieval town of Erice, the archaeological park of selinunte, the egadi islands, mozia, san vito lo capo with its beautiful beach, the spas of sulphurous waters, the many restaurants in the area with typical regional cuisine, the beautiful port of castellammare with his castle.

Absolutes Traumhaus
Wir waren mit zwei kleinen Kindern im Oktober in Guiseppes Haus. Die Terassen und die Aussenküche waren ein absoluter Traum. Der Blick auf das Meer unbeschreiblich. Lieber Guiseppe vielen Dank das wir in deinem Haus Urlaub machen durften, wir kommen gerne wieder.

Stunning views and fantastically equipped holiday home
This is a beautiful place to stay. The views across the Bay from the terraces and many seating areas around the villa are simply stunning. The villa is extremely comfortable and incredibly well equipped with more sofas, saucepans, crockery and gadgets than you could possibly hope for! It feels like a much loved family home. And Giuseppe is the perfect host. He gave us such a friendly welcome, couldn't have been more helpful with anything we needed to know, and left us the most delicious and huge lunch of local specialities. The villa is the perfect spot from which to explore western Sicily - trips over the fortnight include the classical sites of Segesta, Selinunte and Agrigento, the hilltop town of Erice, Palermo, Monreale, and the Zingaro walk. We had a fabulous time.

da sogno, una favola....
" abbiamo trascorso una bellissimo soggiorno in questa struttura, ottima location per coloro che cercano tranquillità e relax, non ci sono case a ridosso quindi la privacy è rispettata, la casa è inserita in un bel contesto naturalistico e ne rispetta il paesaggio circostante e la natura, ma sopratutto la vista su tutto il Golfo che si gode dalla casa è assolutamente unica; la casa è arredata con gusto ed è dotata di tutto quello che occorre per un soggiorno confortevole, gli spazi esterni sono incantevoli, si può pranzare all'aperto a diretto contatto con la natura in una delle 3 verande, una delle quali attrezzata con forno a legna ,barbecue frigo; Giuseppe ,il proprietario , è persona estremamente gentile, ci ha accolti con grande affabilità e con alcune prelibatezze siciliane che abbiamo molto gradito. Un ottimo soggiorno che ci sentiamo di consigliamo caldamente. Spero in futuro di ripetere questa positiva esperienza"

Wonderful villa and a great base for exploring
We liked the villa very much because it felt Sicilian. Lots of character, cosy, clean, comfortable and generally well equipped although fans in the bedrooms, some wine glasses and a full length mirror would have given it five stars. Giuseppe was a real pleasure to deal with. Friendly, welcoming, informative and very prompt with communication. He met us a short distance from the villa as it is quite hard to find, and showed us a quieter place to swim and where to shop on the way. He then gave us a very detailed induction to the property and had prepared a super lunch of traditional Sicilian food which was very welcome. The outside areas and garden are amazing. Very private. Different seating areas, tables, loungers and a hammock so that you can always find a quiet spot for some time to yourself. The table football provided a lot of fun. The attention to detail and care that have gone into the property are obvious. The views are incredible across the Gulf. Very beautiful by day and night - so many stars. We walked to Scopello early one morning - about 45 mins. A rough, fairly steep track for a short distance so good footwear required. Wouldn't recommend walking back after a night out in Scopello though. Scopello is charming. A great cafe and several good restaurants, some with wonderful views. Pleasant atmosphere. We swam down by the old tuna fishery. Very picturesque but it was quite crowded. We enjoyed trips to Segesta and Selinunte which are pretty close by and must sees. Eurice is also definitely worth a visit with great views from the castle, lovely cobbled streets, interesting history. We went to Castellamare del Golfo for a couple of nights out. A great atmosphere, picturesque, interesting and pleasant to just spend a bit of time exploring. We would recommend the Saten Bar for pre dinner drinks and canapes and the Tonnara restaurant, both on the waterfront. We loved Sicily and definitely want to come back as there is so much more to see and do and the food is fabulous. We would certainly recommend this villa.

Living with the gods
Giuseppe's house is located in one of the nicest areas of Sicily - if not the nicest. Scopello is a lovely little town with a very pleasant nightlife and an absolutely beautiful coast line. Both Palermo and Trapani airports are only minutes away due to the fact that the autostrada is nearby. This is also a good place from which to radiate towards Selinunte, Segesta and even Cefalu ; although we ended up just sitting by the house and looking at the truly incredibly beautiful view over the sea… The house is set in the hills ; a situation that provides both freshness in the summer and calm all through the year. There are many outside spaces which allows every family member to be on his own, either in the sun or the shade. There are stretchers galore, tables to eat, others for the apperitivo,… and a soccer-table for the family ! The fridge was full of wonderful surprises including a bottle of limoncello!, white wine, red wine,… There was also a basket of fruits, wonderful bread (be sure to ask for the bakery), local delicatesses,… If it passed your mind – as it did mine – that this place is rather expensive, you will certainly understand were the plus-value has been invested – at least part of it ! – when you snoop around the kitchen. (Believe me, you will prefer it this way around, rather than finding a place with kitchen towels in the toilet because the previous gusts had run out of toilet paper…) Giuseppe is not only a very kind and reliable person ; to us he has been a true guardian angel. Jeroen + family – Paris / France P.S : for those – like me – who weren’t exactly keen with the idea of putting the toilet paper aside from the bowl, I should probably add that this isn’t an issue at all – surprisingly !
