Home description

The house is located in the most famous seaside area of Sciacca, that is only 4 km away from it. This is the ideal location for a seaside holiday, as well as the starting point for excursions to many important archaeological (Selinunte, Agrigento, Segesta) and nature areas (“Scala dei Turchi” – Turkish steps, Torre Salsa, Erice). You can reach all resorts by car (approx. 1 hour). The house is surrounded by a big patio, in which also the landlord’s house is located, who will warmly welcome you with savoury snacks, local Sicilian cakes, seasonal fruits and the typical hard wheat bread. Upon departure, you will receive a bottle of extra-virgin olive oil produced in this area. The house is surrounded by a fenced olive grove (3 ha) and can be accessed through a big automatic gate. After a sunny day at the seaside or a beautiful excursion, you can have a rest in the shade of the gazebos or the olive trees, while in the evening you can enjoy a barbecue and taste the delicious Sciacca’s fish, that you may buy in the afternoon from the fishermen at the harbour.

The Sicily region

Sicily is the biggest island in the Mediterranean Sea, where many populations followed each other, like the Greeks, Romans, Byzantines, Arabs, Normans, who all left traces of their civilization.
Goethe himself affirmed that “to have seen Italy without seeing Sicily is not having seen Italy at all. Sicily is the key to everything”.

Sciacca area

Sciacca is a beautiful and elegant city, famous for its thermal treatments that were appreciated even by the Romans. Here you will have the chance to admire many palaces and churches that date back to the Renaissance and Baroque period, as well as numerous Arab-Norman finds. The seaside resorts are visited by many tourists, who love the fine sandy beaches and the blue sea. Moreover, many are the cultural events organised by the town council in July and August.

In the “baglio” you will find deck-chairs, tables, swings, flowers and plants. Beyond the “baglio” there is the countryside area, with lemon and orange trees and an olive grove (3 ha). The long, beautiful beach of San Marco is located 800 metres away from the house.

Dear Giulia

“We found the baglio San Marco to be an authentic part of Sicily and a wonderful experience. The surroundings of olive and pomegranate trees and the wonderful courtyard are enchanting. This is combined with an interior which is original and yet has all modern amenities, something which is difficult to achieve. The charming and warm welcome from Guilia and her family made the experience complete”
Thank you very much
regards
Alan P.
