Açıklama İngilizceIf you are looking for a special place to stay for your break in the South-East of Sicily, then Carob Tree is the perfect choice. Whether you want to explore the local countryside, relax on the beach or visit historic towns and villages, there is plenty to see and do in the area.

This modern yet comfortable villa is all on one level, accessed through the vast entrance hall. The heart of the home is the open-plan living and dining room which leads in to the contemporary fitted kitchen, this is a great social space for eating together or relaxing over a glass of wine. There are 2 bedrooms at the villa, both of which have double beds and a TV, plus modern en-suite bathrooms. As well as being lovingly decorated, the house has Wi-Fi and air-conditioning available throughout.

The garden here really lends itself to outdoor living and with the warm climate you may find that you spend much of your time outside. You can even choose to cook outdoors as there is a second kitchen located in the garden plus a covered dining table and comfy lounge seating. Also in the large garden there is a salt water infinity pool lined with sun loungers and the grounds are filled with native plants and lawned areas. From wherever you are in the garden you can take in the staggering views of the surrounding fields as you relax in the sun.

There are a number of charming villages and towns in easy reach of the villa, the closest being Rosolini which is 7km away. Though there is a supermarket closer than this. Rosolini is a relatively new town for Sicily as it was founded in the 15th century and largely constructed by local princes over the following centuries. Today you can visit 2 lovely churches- the Baroque Church of Madre di San Giuseppe and the Church of Santissimo Crocifisso with its impressive bell towers. There are also ancient ruins belonging to earlier settlements and the Ethnographic Museum where you can find out about local life and the founding of the town. Rosolini is also a wonderful place to visit just to sit out on Piazza Garibaldi enjoying some of the much-loved ricotta stuffed ravioli.

For a wider range of shops and eateries you can drive to Ispica which is 11.5km away and is a beautiful city which was constructed in a unique Sicilian Baroque style after an earthquake destroyed the area in the 17th century. Some of the must-see attractions include the Palazzo Belmonte which is now the town hall and the Basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore. The city is perched on a hilltop and in the surrounding hills you can also find a fantastic archaeological park and a number of caves to explore. This area is known for its farming and some of the locally grown products include carob, olives and almonds, you can sample these goods at little family-owned restaurants or at one of the many food festivals held on the pretty piazzas. There are also music and medieval festivals held here throughout the year.

After all of the sightseeing you may need a day at the coast to recharge. One of the closest beaches is Pozzallo beach which is 20km away from the villa, this sweeping sandy bay has clear shallow water for swimming and plenty of beach clubs with sun loungers and bars. There are also beach sports and water sports on offer here. For quieter coves why not visit picturesque Marzamemi which is 30km away and is a quaint fishing village.
