The agriturismo

A traditional 19th century farmstead, fully renovated, in the stunning scenery of the Ciane-Saline Nature Reserve, just a few dozen metres from the Fonte Ciane spring, referenced by Ovid and famous worldwide as the only existing site (other than the banks of the Nile in Egypt) where papyrus grows wild.

The estate is home to rare agricultural and artisan tools, meticulously restored, reminiscent of the arts and trades of the past, as well as an elegant library and a rural museum.

The accommodation

This traditional nineteenth century farmstead comprises a main central body of 18 rooms surrounded by typical rural "baglio" dwellings and courtyards. The agriturismo stands nestled in a citrus grove of Sicilian oranges and lemons, 10 hectares of land and sprawling green gardens, home to all kinds of Mediterranean plants and more. Beneath the broad fronds of ficus, mulberry and jacaranda, you can enjoy a drink or read a book, using the tables, chairs and benches provided for guests to relax. You'll also find a pergola formed from local grape vines. All rooms are air conditioned, with mini bars, flat screen satellite TVs and private bathrooms with courtesy toiletries and hairdryers. Some rooms also enjoy their own relaxation area.

There's a seasonal outdoor swimming pool, a barbecue, a solarium terrace with garden views and free secure parking. The agriturismo also offers an educational farm with horses, local breed donkeys, geese, ducks, goats and hens, who provide fresh eggs daily for guests to enjoy alongside the delicious seasonal produce from the organic vegetable garden.
