A small terrace with a breakfast table is accessible from almost all rooms on the ground floor, including the kitchen and living room, and is the perfect place where you can have breakfast or dinner comfortably and carefree, especially when the church bells of the “Chiesa Madre” ring gently every quarter of an hour, creating an almost idyllic atmosphere arise and whisper to you that you are in Sicily.

Once you have crossed the small terrace, you are greeted by an approximately 280 square meter courtyard. A Sicilian flora with lemon trees, orange and mandarin trees, mint plants, rosemary, jasmine and basil fill the air with natural scents.
