Comfortable Country Home located in the picturesque valley of Noto's countryside

Please note,that the whole property is for the exclusive private use of our guests only.

Our country home is set in the peaceful countryside of the charming baroque town of Noto, where time stops and serenity is restored. You arrive to the house via a winding country lane with breathtaking views. There you can see mountains, hills and the lowest point of Sicily on the Mediterranean Sea. The position of the country home offers deep relaxation immersed in the heart of olive and carob orchards with only the sound of chirping birds to awaken you in the morning fresh and energized. We love the ravishing sunrises and sunsets and on a clear night you will be able to see the splendor of the Milky Way. Settling into the sounds and sensations of nature, heightened in summer months, is a constant pleasure and source of interest. On the ground floor of the house there is a dining kitchen, 3 bedrooms, a living room and a 4-piece bathroom. Upstairs there is another living room, 2 bedrooms and a bathroom. All are spacious. On request, a wonderful grand piano is available for musicians too.
The location offers the possibility of visiting the neighboring baroque towns of Scicli,Modica, Ragusa Ibla and Syracuse where history and culinary experiences are at your footsteps, the nature Reserve of Vendicari is a leisurely drive away...for wine lovers there are several wineries to go for wine tasting ..cheers.
The villa is accessible via a long unpaved well maintained country road 1.8 km long, only standard hight cars are recommended (no low profile cars), its a panoramic drive that as you drive it will give you the sensation of being immersed in nature.
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned villa, which features a private pool. There's a private balcony. A kitchen is outfitted with a refrigerator, an oven, and a microwave. Complimentary wireless internet access is available to keep you connected. The bathroom with a shower/tub combination features a jetted bathtub and a bidet.

Beautiful and peaceful location.
The property is accessible by a long, windy and very stony road and we had rented an SUV-type car which was perfect having read the reviews in advance of booking. The house is well located for driving out to places (Noto, Modica, Syracuse, beaches, etc). Giorgio and his family were very welcoming (a meal and food awaited us on our arrival). The house is well equipped, the beds were all comfortable, garden and swimming pool are very well maintained and the location is super-peaceful.

Farm house with a difference
This unique farmhouse is situated AWAY from cities' evil way of living and from all odds and even. Just a relaxing week with the family and friends, this property has ALL one can need and very well-equipped property. The owners are extremely helpful, understanding and the most friendly people one can meet. Very clean property and swimming pool in the extreme best condition. Surrounded by nature, birds singing, greenery, and pure fresh air all around. Not so far away from Pozzallo port, Modica and Ragusa, Noto, Buccheri and many other countries and cities. Having a car is a must for a more comfortable stay. We will stay again in this property in the coming future. Very highly recommended!

Excellent !
Séjour plus qu'agréable au sein d'une oliveraie perdue au bout d'une piste. Dépaysement et calme au rendez vous dans une villa plus que confortable. Nous garderons longtemps le souvenir de nos soirées sous la pergola ! Le top du top est l'accueil plus que chaleureux de Giorgio et Helen. Bref que du bonheur !

Vacances familiales
Nous avons passé un très bon séjour, au calme et dans un environnement magnifique. La propriété est accessible par une petite route très caillouteuse. Il vaut mieux avoir une bonne voiture ! Mais elle est bien située pour les visites touristiques (Neto, Modica, Syracuse, Marzamemi...). Giorgio et sa famille sont très accueillants (Un repas et des victuailles nous attendaient à notre arrivée). La maison est bien équipée, la literie est confortable. Le jardin est la piscine sont très bien entretenus. Super

Wunderschönes Haus im Olivenhain
Wir haben allein in einem schönen, großen Haus, gelegen in einer Olivenplantage gewohnt. Die Gastgeber haben uns mit einer frischen Lasagne und einen vollen Kühlschrank empfangen. Bei Fragen konnten wir sie immer kontaktieren und haben hilfreiche Tipps bekommen. George und seine Frau waren einfach wunderbar! Der Pool wurde regelmäßig gereinigt, auch das Haus wurde während unseres Aufenthalts gesäubert. Die Außenanlage ist grosräumig und gepflegt. Wenn man Unternehmungen machen möchte ist man immer auf das Auto angewiesen, da das Haus sehr weit im Olivenhain gelegen ist. Dafür wird man mit Natur pur, absuluter Ruhe und einen tollen Ausblick belohnt. Bis zum Meer fährt man eine halbe Stunde, der Strand war sehr sauber und nicht überfüllt. Wenn man gut essen gehen möchte kann man zu Fuß (ca. 20, mit Auto 4 min.) in das nahegelegene Hotel laufen, auch gibt es empfehlenswerte Restaurants ganz in der Nähe. Das Haus hat mit seinen großen Räumen und einer guten Ausstattung keine Wünsche offen gelassen. Es gab Spielsachen, die Küche war voll ausgestattet und jeder Schlafraum hat eine Klimaanlage. Wir hatten einen wunderschönen Aufenthalt, eine absulute Empfehlung!

Ottimo per chi cerca relax, quiete e natura
Tra amici abbiamo trascorso presso Villa Zesira una settimana di totale relax immersi nella pace più totale. La notte è possibile osservare il firmamento come difficilmente lo si può fare altrove. Accoglienza eccezionale da parte di George, disponibilissimo su tutto già prima di arrivare. Piscina tenuta sempre pulita. La casa è completa di ogni comfort così come descritto. Anche se isolata nelle campagne, le principali località tusitiche sono facilmente raggiungibili in auto (Modica, Ragusa Ibla, Palazzolo Acreide, Noto...). Esperienza positiva da tutti i punti di vista!

Grande maison avec beaucoup d'espace à l'abri de tous les regards: La nature vous appartient. La situation géographique est un peu a son désavantage pour qui veut faire des excursions. Idéale pour des moments en famille et profiter du far niente. Personellement c'était top. Grazie Giorgio e a tutti voi
