Place: Bagheria | Region: Sicily | Evaluation: ****

Villa le Terrazze lies in the seaside town of Aspra, about 5 kms from Bagheria, a town which between 1600 and 1700 was a favourite spot for the nobility of Palermo and is now well-known throughout the world for its many baroque villas, such as: Villa Valguarnera, Villa Palagonia - the best known for its monsters and visionary figures carved in sandstone - and Villa Cattolica, which hosts the modern art gallery donated by Renato Guttuso. The villa stands sheer above the sea and is on three terraces: on the lower one is the large swimming-pool (20x7m) and access to the path down to the sea, consisting of just two flights of steps. The villa has been recently restored, is furnished with high-quality modern pieces and is well-equipped: there is a lift connecting the various floors; central hot and cold air-conditioning; internal parking for 4 cars; satellite-TV, DVD and stereo; broadband internet connection; dishwasher; washing-machine and barbecue. The path down to the sea is private and leads to a beautiful platform on the rocks looking onto a crystal-clear sea, however since the coast is state property outsiders are allowed access via the sea. The city of Palermo is about 15 kms away, Cefalù 60 kms, and both can be reached by autostrada. Bagheria is also well-known for its gastronomy and its local confectioner's shops, where you can sit comfortably at a table and try brioches with ice-cream and whipped cream or a fresh lemon water-ice.
