The Site

The `Pizzolungo' homestead is at the foot of mount Erice, in the extreme west of Sicily, amongst Mediterranean maquis and forest trees. Here you can enjoy the peace and quiet of the countryside without giving up the pleasure of going to the sea, only 50 m away. Olives, grapes, vegetables, citrus fruits and other fruits are organically cultivated in over 80 ha of land. Guests can buy grapes, olive oil, wheat, citrus fruits and fruit in season. Courtyard animals are raised. From the homestead there is a marvellous view of the Egadi islands and of the suggestive salt works, that run along the coast from Trapani to Mozia.

Accomodation:


Guests are put up in a 19`" century villa, tastefully restored in 1985. There are two apartments, furnished simply yet comfortably, with heating, sleeping 7 in total. The homestead is open all year round, minimum stay seven nights. It is a comfortable and spacious place for guests.

Sport & Activities:


It is possible to go mountain biking along the country tracks. At the homestead you can play table tennis, do a course on farming, and children can play in a safe playground.
