In this farm holiday you can enjoy the sun, relax in a hammock in the wood, go for a invigorating walk around the property or have a refreshing swim in the pool. You can enjoy the colours of the sunset with a book in one hand and a drink in the other, or go trekking on the CAI tracks (Club Alpino Italiano) some of which pass through the estate.

If you like sports, the farm holiday offers a 3 day paragliding course, single jumps or a jump in tandem, if you are a beginner.
You can take our mountain bikes, go on a guided trek through the Ficuzza wood and even walk to the top of the Busambra Rock (1600m).
You can also do a Sicilian cookery course with the chef. It offers a tour of the cultural wealth of the surrounding area, wine tasting tours and visits to the the lake of Piana degli Albanesi, a WWF oasis. If you haven't got a car, Masseria Rossella offers a transfer service to and from the airport. You won't have time to do everything.
Finally, you can buy theproducts form the Masseria: extra virgin olive oil, sun-dried tomatoes, eggplant and artichokes in oil, jam, seasoned cheeses and olives, wine, home-made pasta and soap made from olive oil.

Just under 10 km to the west, clinging to the rock of the same name, is the ancient Greek city of Jato, whose theatre, agora, streets and houses are still perfectly visible. A few kilometres to the south are the Arab thermal baths of Cefalà Diana, to the north the famous Monreale and Palermo and the town of Piana degli Albanesi with its beautiful lake is only 10km away.
Finally, if you are a cinema lover you will be pleased to know that a short distance from the farm you will find unforgettable places in which scenes from films such as The Leopard, Cinema Paradiso and Salvatore Giuliana were filmed.
