Holiday destination
Scillato is a small gem located in the heart of Sicily, on the edge of the Parco delle Madonie, considered a world heritage site. Its proximity to part of the Sicilian Apennines favored the birth of the village due to the presence of water springs, which is why the area is home to 14 mills dating back to the 19th century, some still in operation. Like the rest of Sicily, Scillato is a place with ancient culinary traditions and rich in typical products, including olives, apricots and tasty oranges to which a festival is also dedicated. The town is strategically located for visiting nearby Cefalù, home to some of the island's most beautiful beaches, Polizzi Generosa, with magnificent views of the Madonie Mountains, and Palermo with its countless UNESCO World Heritage sites.
Guests can reach the accommodation by car from the airport of Palermo, which is around 100 km away, or from the airport of Catania, 150 km away. If you are flying to the island, we suggest renting a car at the airport. Do not hesitate to contact us for more information and suggestions, we will be happy to assist you.

Scannale is such a beautiful place saturated with interesting (and cinematic!) history and surrounded by amazing nature. Here you can start the day in the peaceful, leafy courtyard with freshly squeezed oranges from Pino's orchard, picking ripe abricots right from the tree next to the table, cuddle the Pino's dog and her puppy, and then wander through the garden to the clean and inviting pool for a morning swim. Inside the house you'll enjoy the spacious rooms, the variety of charming bedrooms and nice, modern bathrooms, and of course the historical atmosphere that is genuinly present everywhere. You can get basic provisions in the nearest village, ten minutes drive away, but be aware that for proper shopping, you'll need to go for a longer drive (and the road to Polizzi Generosa was temp. closed). There is a nice restaurant nearby, Il Baglio Antico di Maria. The only potential disturbance (if you are sensitive) is from the highway down in the valley, but none of us found it annoying.

This is a stunning classical old world building with unbelievable views of the surrounding mountains and valley. The entire estate is surrounded by sweet orange trees that are overflowing with fruit. Obviously with old world charm comes some modern inconveniences but who cares when you get to experience a stay at such a fantastic property. Once the warm sun popped out we spent all our time by the pool which is truly spectacular. Roberta and her husband met us on arrival and she was a very prompt communicator via Whats App. A caretaker lives on the property in case of any thing required. We are already planning our next visit!
