The Sicilian Farmhouse

Il Casolare Siciliano is a large and charming country home spread over two levels, nestled amid the tranquility and vibrant colours of the Syracuse countryside, near Augusta. The property is surrounded by a vast 5,000-square-meter lot and features a courtyard adjacent to an on-site guest house that is not available for rent, ensuring maximum privacy thanks to a completely separate and independent entrance. Upon arrival, you are greeted by a private driveway leading to the outdoor parking area and a convenient garage, which can be easily accessed from both inside and outside the house.

The spacious and inviting interior is ideal for accommodating up to 5 people. The living area consists of a comfortable living room and a large kitchen, the latter featuring a traditional wood-fired oven—perfect for those who want to try their hand at preparing traditional dishes. The property features a full bathroom with a shower and four bedrooms, designed to offer maximum flexibility: one master bedroom with a double bed and three single bedrooms, each equipped with a single bed; one of these also includes a convenient fold-up cot for any eventuality. Outside, the large shared grounds offer ample green spaces where you can let your pets run free—pets are allowed on the property for an additional fee—as well as a ping-pong table.

The farmhouse’s location is ideal for those seeking a rejuvenating holiday while also wanting to explore the wonders of southeastern Sicily. The town of Augusta, with its rich military history and island-like layout, offers splendid views of the sea. Just a short distance away is the charming seaside village of Brucoli, a true gem of the coast famous for its Aragonese castle guarding a natural fjord—perfect for evening strolls and dinners featuring fresh seafood at the renowned local restaurants.

In about thirty minutes by car, you can reach the splendid city of Syracuse, with the enchanting island of Ortigia and its extraordinary Neapolis Archaeological Park. Its proximity to major highways also makes it easy to reach Catania Airport, the slopes of Mount Etna, and the famous golden beaches of the Ionian coast, offering a perfect blend of sea, culture, and rural relaxation.
