Explore the unique Marsala region of Sicily's western coast with a stay at this stunning dwelling. We adore the enchanting tree path up to the front door, reminiscent of something from Middle Earth and giving the home a magical vibe before you've even stepped inside. This home is charming and characterful, with exposed stonework ceilings, ornate tiled floors and quaint artwork. The dining room is ideal for feasting on home-cooked tagliatelle dishes with your loved ones, and the lounge area makes a great place for playing party games with friends and family on merry evenings. The home is made up of a main house, along with a separate annexe on the same grounds, ideal if you have guests that would like a little more privacy. Outside is vibrant and fun, with a view out to the blue ocean that'll take your breath away. Here, you'll find an outdoor private pool that's great for morning swims as the sun rises, as well as plenty of poolside loungers where you can rest with your nose in a good book. There's also a covered terrace with a dining set here that's perfect for sipping on sundowners.
