Notes :
- The swimming pool is open all year round.
- Road conditions and car hire advice : part of the road leading to the villa is dirt and littered with potholes and bumps. As it is often in the countryside in Sicily, we therefore recommend that you hire a car with plenty of ground clearance, or alternatively a 4X4.
