I recently returned from Sicily. Visiting this herb farm was a highlight, especially with Enrico as truly entertaining and knowledgeable as he is and Rita as delightful a person and excellent cook as she is. The farm is a work in progress, one which they have great plans to keep expanding, on its way to becoming a destination place to stay, while enjoying the view and the aromatic herbs. Well worth visiting. Grazie, Enrico and Rita

We loved our visit to Mulino ad Acqua. Each unique space gives you a great insight into the history of the area and how people lived there. Seeing the mill in action and operated the latest in many generations of millers who have worked there is really fascinating.

A Rutta ri Ron Carmelu

Reviewed By shionapenrake - London, United Kingdom

My dad's girlfriend is Italian and she booked the visit and translated for the owner. I was amazed that the grotto kept a steady temperature for winter and for summer so the grotto was surprisingly warm and cosy despite the chilly winter wind outside. The owner gave us a thorough tour of the place and showed us all kinds of interesting things, from the photos of the grotto families, to the inventive toys that the children used to play, to his son's beautiful artwork that was up for sale. The owner was especially excited talking to us as I was filming with my DSLR and he was eager to have a video of his grotto aiming for an English audience. I was promised to send him a link when I finish it so wish me luck on it!

I did a private tour of the oil mill with Luciano, one of the owners. It was awesome learning more about the process, seeing the machinery and tasting so many delicious olive oils. There’s also some available for purchase. Would definitely recommend taking a trip out. :)

Portale di San Giorgio

Reviewed By SallyF906 - Northampton, United Kingdom

Not far from the Giardini Ibleo, this is all that remains of the Church of San Giorgio that was destroyed in the C17th earthquake but it is certainly worth going to have a look. Originally built in C14th probably by the notable Chiaramonte family it is constructed in the Catalan Gothic style. In the lunette you can see St George slaying the dragon and above that the House of Aragon coat of arms.

Gorgeous sleepy town on the sea. Has everything you need and the beaches along that coast are fab. Eat at Il Consiglio di Sicilia if you are there.
