Overview

Arriving at Poggio Pigio is a breathtaking experience. From the cobalt blue of the coast one ascends to a privileged position on the crest of a hill from where 360 degree views spread out, taking in the Madonie Mountains to the south and the Tyrrhenian Sea to the north. Stylishly calming interiors blend harmoniously with stunning outside areas, including a fabulous pool. Once arrived, you will find it hard to drag yourself away!

The Property

Inside: from the shaded terrace one enters the open-plan living and dining area and kitchen. Polished concrete floors throughout create a clean, minimalist effect while the beamed ceilings hark back to the house’s former life. The spacious bedroom, which is just off the living area, boasts views out to sea while the bathroom, with its enormous walk-in shower has a definite wow factor. Mod-cons are in abundance, with flat-screen TV with satellite, a Dolby surround audio system and top quality appliances in the kitchen.

Outside: the outside areas are extensive, including a large, partially-covered terrace with sea views in front of the house and a panoramic swimming pool, complete with hydro-massage corner and swimming machine to the back. From wherever you sit, you will find yourself staring in awe at the views. Peace and quiet abound...unless you use the pool-side sound system!

The Area

The north flank of the Madonie mountains, just east of Cefalu', is one of the most beautiful areas in Sicily. The sea views are stunning, the flora and fauna incontaminated, and the towns and villages unspoilt. Pollina and Castelbuono, the two nearest towns, are good examples of this. Castelbuono is just now starting to find its place on the tourist map and features a fascinating castle and some good restaurants. Hill-top Pollina is a typical Sicilian village.
The beach at Pollina, which is just 15 minutes' drive from Poggio Pigio, is well equipped in summer for the benefit of the clients of an adjacent Italian holiday resort. Out of the peak season, however, it is relatively deserted.

Think About

The perfect Romantic honeymoon villa! The villa's driveway is steep and has some tight bends which may put less confident drivers off. The vast majority of guests, however, have no problem.
