The Casale dei Gelsomini is a traditional farmhouse dating back to 1863, nestled in the tranquility of a carob grove, just a few minutes from the historic center of Scicli and in an ideal location for discovering the baroque treasures of the Val di Noto. It is situated on a hilly plateau, offering views that extend to the sea, encompassing the coastline from Sampieri to Marina di Ragusa.

Once the hub of rural life, the property has been restored with a deep respect for its original character. The old barns and laborers' quarters have been transformed into comfortable apartments that overlook a spacious courtyard of 600 square meters, while the old manor house, located on a higher level and featuring a panoramic terrace, still retains the charm of days gone by.

Access to the courtyard, the heart of the farmhouse and the entry point for the three independent apartments, is through a door framed by bougainvillea. "Kamarina" accommodates up to three guests and has two private bathrooms; "Vendicari" welcomes four guests in two double rooms, each with its own bathroom; "Ibla," featuring one double room and one twin room, includes a bathroom and a private terrace.

All apartments are equipped with a fully furnished kitchen, refrigerator with freezer, television, and fans, ensuring guests the freedom and comfort for an independent holiday in the authentic heart of the Sicilian countryside.

Area Campagna

The Casale dei Gelsomini is situated in a prime location among the hills surrounding Scicli, just 2.5 km from its historic center, which is one of the most charming and well-preserved in southeastern Sicily. Nestled within the Val di Noto area, this region is recognized by UNESCO for its remarkable baroque heritage, evident in the churches, noble palaces, and limestone alleys that illuminate with light at sunset.

Its proximity to Modica, only 6 km away, allows for the exploration of another iconic center of the island, famous not only for its architecture but also for its confectionery tradition linked to the renowned chocolate. The hillside location of the farmhouse provides expansive views of the coast, offering glimpses that stretch from Sampieri to Marina di Ragusa, well-known seaside destinations celebrated for their golden beaches and crystal-clear waters.

The surrounding landscape is dotted with dry stone walls, carob trees, and ancient olive groves, creating an authentic and tranquil rural atmosphere where time seems to move at a slower pace. Nature lovers can take advantage of nearby nature reserves and hiking trails, while those seeking cultural routes will find nearby Ragusa Ibla, Noto, and Palazzolo Acreide as must-visit stops on a journey through the truest Sicily.

Despite being immersed in the countryside, the Casale dei Gelsomini is well-connected to the road network and serves as a strategic starting point for exploring the historical, natural, and gastronomic treasures of the province of Ragusa and the entire southeastern region of Sicily.
