Independent Report
generalGuests are pampered by the traditionally polite Sicilian hospitality and sample genuine and refined Mediterranean dishes accompanied by autocton wines which reveal the typical perfumes of this sunblessed territory whilst discovering the beauty of the baroque towns that have been declared "Heritage of Humanity". DC 10/09
lobbyThe building is a fortified residence, an enclosed structure protected by high walls of white stone with a magnificent entrance crowned by the noble emblem. The architectural complex, which faces onto a large internal courtyard called "the baglio", includes the main floor with the master's dwelling, the private chapel, the farm worker's houses, the stables, the granary, the old oil mill with the huge grindstones and the storehouses. The manor farm has recently been restored to its antique splendour respecting rigorously the original structure. It is now home to an elegant hotel complex offering different solutions for accommodation and exclusive services for ceremonies, weddings and meetings.
