Save to favouritesPrintMailMasseria degli UliviA short drive up a winding road to the hills above the stunning town of Noto brings you to the remote and incredibly tranquil 'Farmhouse of Olives'. You enter through a cool, dark archway where, on our visit, an old dog slept peacefully in the shade. The nineteenth-century farmhouse is built around a baglio (courtyard), with an old olive tree providing shade. The reception, restaurant and breakfast room are off this central space, with the accommodation in newly built blocks across the lawn. Modern edges are softened by the dusky pink colour of the walls and the jasmine, honeysuckle and rose plants climbing up the sides. Across the lawn is the beautiful infinity pool: semi-circular and surrounded by sun-loungers shaded by olive trees. Simple, comfy [r:SI015:rooms] have high beamed ceilings; some are split level, which will suit families. But it's the setting which makes it: you're in the depths of nature, with Sicily's most spectacular river gorge and her loveliest Baroque town both on your doorstep.
