Description Oh, The Island's Whisper: Noto

Olive trees, modern comforts, and a safari tent filled with a billiards, foosball and ping pong table – this isn’t your average countryside retreat. The sleek, single-storey villa mixes refined interiors with a lush garden bursting with Mediterranean herbs and a fabulous pool (complete with hydromassage corner). There’s space to sprawl indoors, shade to dine under on the veranda, and a piano for impressing your guests. Located just a short drive from Noto and Sicily’s other baroque villages, this is a base for poolside lounging and cultural gallivanting in equal measure.

Home truths:
*Due to this home's location, we recommend hiring a car to get the most out of your stay. There’s free private parking here.
*The swimming pool is only available for use between 20th March and 30th November.
*While the safari tent games room is great fun, it’s not air-conditioned – best enjoyed in the cooler hours.
*The garden is beautifully landscaped but not fully enclosed, plus the pool isn’t fenced – little ones will need to be supervised at all times.
