5 Bedroom House in Palazzolo Acreide

This is the place you dream of discovering when coming to Sicily, a place for tradition lovers and connoisseurs, where you can taste the simple and charming life of an enchanted past. Villa Molinum is an authentically restored miller's house, drenched in history and nestled in 4 hectares of unspoiled nature. A still working mill, an always-fresh creek at 20 meters from the house and a private pool complete the idyllic picture.
A curvy country road bordered with low white walls leads to Villa Molinum. The villa consists of a white main building of 150 m2 and a pink dépendance of 40 m2. The entrance to both units is a green patio overlooking a forest and the creek, where you might even spot one of the owner’s horses running freely.
The main building has four eclectically elegant double bedrooms and two luxury bathrooms, one for each floor. A spacious dining room with a well-equipped kitchen (including a dishwasher) will be the perfect frame for all your dinners, unless you cannot get enough of the stunning views of the surroundings and you prefer to enjoy your meal outdoor. The dépendance consists of a double bedroom and a bathroom, and it can be a romantic hideout for a couple that wants even more privacy. There is a brand new bathroom and a changing room next to the pool.
A fireplace stove in the main building and a wood stove in the dépendance will make your stay in winter warm and cosy. The thick walls of both units will not allow you to sweat while inside, not even in August.
It would be really difficult to ask for more. And yet, here it is possible. You can, for example, go trekking in the bordering Hyblean Mountains, request a horse ride together with the owner, or a dinner cooked with local and organic products. Moreover, at a very short drive or at 20 minutes on foot you can reach the town of Palazzolo Acreide, one of the most stunning Baroque towns of Sicily and Unesco Heritage since 2002, featuring gorgeous churches and an ancient Greek amphitheater. The local delicacies are salami and bread made in all different ways given the miller’s tradition of the area, but you will delighted by wine and artisanal beers too. And do not miss a visit to Corsino, the oldest patisserie in town! Finally, Syracuse, sandy beaches and on the other side Mount Etna are at only 40 km.
In short, Villa Molinum is where authentic features, modern comforts, superb surroundings and a strategic location unite to create a dreamlike atmosphere and let you live a holiday of wonder.
Villa Molinum has WiFi!

Summary: We had an amazing stay in Palazzolo Acreide! The hosts are so kind and helpful with all things in the area and helped arrange horseback riding and a wine tasting for us. They made our time there incredibly special—our whole family’s favorite!!!

Summary: Nestled in a valley just a twenty minute walk to Palazzolo Acriede sits a secluded paradise. We chose the villa because of its proximity to Siracusa, Noto, and many other sites in southeastern Sicily, but the villa was so quiet and comfortable that we spent a couple of days just enjoying the pool and the peaceful sounds of the water and the birds. The kitchen is large and well equipped, and easily accommodate the eight of us. Mario and Rosella were the consummate hosts. Thank you Mario for helping us find the clinic. This villa is a fantastic treat, and I we hope to return one day to just relax and enjoy this paradise again.

Summary: Nestled in a valley just twenty minutes walk from Palazzolo Acriede is a hidden Eden. A 16th century mill and millers house have been lovingly restored by the owners, Rosella and Mario. The villa is tranquil paradise where the only sounds are the creek and the song birds. Our few days here were far too brief. We will definitely be returning.

Summary: Stunning house with beautiful views and the most lovely attentive hosts. Rosella cooked us a sublime Sicilian meal on the day of our arrival which she served and washed up. Such a treat. Mario joined us for an aperitivo on the terrace and gave us lots of local information. We were here in April and it was a was a little chilly in the evenings but we were supplied with endless barrows of Logs for the roaring wood burner. Such a pleasure to be there.

Summary: The ultimate Sicilian experience. Very beautiful house with all the necessities you can need! Nice cool temperature inside the house even without AC. The pool is great and it has a pool house and an outside shower. It’s also great to have access to the river. The property around is beautiful. Nice decoration in the house and several spots to lounge inside and outside. Palazzolo Acreide is a nice town near the house. Great attention with the welcome basket. Mario was very helpful and Rosella was adorable and speaks well English and French. Highly recommend!! We would love to come back again.

Summary: We had an incredible family holiday at the house, the location is absolutely unique and stunning. The pool, gardens and home are authentically and beautifully Sicilian. It’s a very special place to visit, you can walk in the countryside around the house, enjoy the local wildlife, sit in the gardens or go into the local city in 7/8 minutes (car). The local restaurant are incredibly good, there are many top class places to eat and enjoy a range of locally produced great food. We ended up with 3/4 favourite places to decide on every night. The city is also beautiful, a UNESCO location, with lots to do and see. Perhaps the best part of home is the hosts themselves, they are super kind , helpful and great people to meet. They had excellent tips of where to go, what restaurants to try and helped us when our son needed a doctor. We were looking forward to a great holiday and home, and it was even better than we expected!

Summary: Beautiful country home. Very quiet and tucked away from the main town, which is charming and off the beaten path. Mario and Rosella are fabulous hosts and are there to take care of anything that arises. Highly recommend and hope to return someday.

Summary: This place is absolutely lovely. The highlight is the outdoor areas which are so beautiful and peaceful. The pool was larger than i think the pictures show and was kept beautifully clean. Great sunbeds and lots of sunny and shady areas around the pool. The house is large and has everything you need, a very sociable kitchen and cozy sitting room. Bedrooms are all large with lots of storage. Location wise, the house is at the bottom of a narrow road so our taxi asked us to walk up to the road to pick us up. It took 20-25 mins to walk in to the town for food and restaurants. I'd recommend hiring a car as it is a little out of town and there are beatiful areas to explore around. The hosts i can not speak highly enough about. Their communication was excellent and they went out of their way to make our stay wonderful. I would highly recommend this place for your holiday.

Summary: We had a fantastic time in the Villa. The property is beautifully restored the mill and the river makes the whole place unique. Palazollo Acreide is a nice little town with kind people. The only thing was a bit difficult for us is the little road that takes us down to the villa. It is narrow and steep, probably with a normal car is fine but we had a van which was not suitable for that road. Despite of that the place is great. The hosts Mario and Rosella are very nice people they made our stay very comfortable, also the first day when they saw that we are struggling with our van on the little road they guarded us the make us safe. The mill is fantastic, must see. Thank you so much for the lovely 10 days. I hope we can be back one day.
