About this property

Villa Immersed In Nature With Private Pool And Outdoor Hot Tub

The Villa lies on a rocky spur over the beautiful so-called "Castello" (THE CASTLE), in a unique and exclusive position. The "Castle" is a residential complex, several storeys high, connected between them by interior steps cut in the walls, with cavities permitting the climbing. The building overlooks the well-known Cava d'Ispica, a long rocky valley (for about 13 Km) with many archaeological treasures and the important species of Mediterranean flora and fauna (it's an SCI area: SITE OF COMMUNITY IMPORTANCE). Little distant from the Villa is the prehistoric Necropolis of Calicantone, dated from the Antique Bronze Age (2200 – 1400 b.C.) that includes almost a hundred of graves dug in the wall rock, some of them placed even inside overhanging rocks; most of the graves’ front drops are decorated with columns, pillars and ledges. You can reach the Necropolis, the Castle and the bottom of the Valley by the stairs close to the house (just 5 metres).

Bliss. Even better than the website promised.

I did not think this place could live up to its billing: it looked so amazing, perched on the edge of a cliff in dramatic scenery, all by itself. But in fact, it was even better than I could have hoped. The views are dramatic, the house is cool and spacious, and the atmosphere idyllic. There were 15 in our party and we all fitted in. The owner volunteered to move beds around for us to get the sleeping configurations right. We cooked our own meals and found all the equipment we needed to make feast after feast. There is plenty of shade and plenty of sun - you can choose what you want for your meals. There is even room for 15 to eat inside if that is what you need. There are plenty of spaces to escape to for a quiet read, and plenty of spaces to be together having fun. The hot tub is a particular delight - so amazing to luxuriate there, with the birds and countryside as your companions. You are away from the crowds but it does not feel lonely. The house is very easy to find, and furnished and equipped so thoughtfully that you feel at home. The only downside is that it is almost impossible to leave. Thoroughly recommended. We all loved it.

Perfektes Haus für größere Gruppen

Dieses Haus liegt etwas Abseits an einer wunderschönen Schlucht. Die Zufahrtstraße ist etwas holprig aber die gesamte Anlage ist absolut sauber und sehr gepflegt. Die Zimmer sind großzügig und jedes mit eigenem Bad. Wir waren eine größere Gruppe aus Familie und Freunden. Für unsere Bedürfnisse absolut perfekt. Bis zum Meer sind es ca. 20 Minuten mit dem Auto. Paolo war ein äußerst netter Gastgeber den man jederzeit alles Fragen konnte. Auch säuberte er jeden Tag den Pool und sorgte für die Bewässerung der Pflanzen. Dabei hat er immer versucht uns möglichst nicht zu stören. Alles in allem ist dieses Haus absolut zu empfehlen.

About the host

Hosted by Antonio Pluchino

Why they chose this property

The house, at its origin, residence of the sharecroppers and a part of it, place of storage for the seasonal agricultural produce and also shelter for the facilities and the tools used for the cultivation of the land, is located in an unique position, on a rocky spur, over the famous rupestral construction of the so-called “Castello” (The Castle) of Cava d’Ispica.
The house was built in 1954 by my grandfather and was meant to provide decent life conditions to the countryside peasants which used to live inside the rocky caverns of the so called “Castello” even in the early post second world war period.
In 2007 I decided to renovate the house cause I love this amazing place immersed in nature: no noise, just relax!
