Villetta Arcobaleno - San LorenzoSmall but perfectly formed, Villa Arcobaleno is a one-bedroom holiday home in a spacious estate near Noto on Sicily's southern tip.Beautifully renovated, inside and outRenovation work over the past eight years has turned a characterful but run-down farm cottage into a really lovely modern holiday home. The property has been remade from terracotta tiled floor to insulated roof. There is fine-grained plaster on the wall, and lovely exposed timbers on the ceiling. The terrace has had a fixed veranda added, and the garden has also now got a stone barbecue oven that will keep you well fed for years to come. The natural stone driveway is another lovely touch.Indoors, the finishings are built to last, especially in the kitchen, where the cupboards have been installed in brick and tile, the traditional Sicilian fashion. There's air conditioning for the summer and an efficient pellet-burning stove for the short winters. Even better, all of the furniture will be included in the sale. Just pack your suitcases!Superb location steeped in natural beauty and historyThe detached home is found at the end of a long country lane that extends into the outer edges of a nature reserve called the Oasi Faunistica di Vendicari. This runs along 10km of south Sicily's Ionian coast, taking in some wonderful sandy beaches and fertile flatlands. Yje mearest beach is just a fifteen minute walk away.If you're a history buff, you'll be charmed by the nearby fishing villages, and dazzled by the Baroque towns of the Val di Noto, right on your doorstep.
