Casa del Vento in San Cono, ancient stone dwelling among olive trees

The house has been owned by my family since its foundation at the end of the 19th century, divided into two autonomous and contiguous parts, one of which I (Francesco) and my partner Stefania live in. Immersed among centuries-old olive groves and oak and downy oak woods, caressed by winds that mitigate the summer heat, it is the ideal place for those seeking a relaxing holiday in contact with nature, simple, authentic and convivial hospitality. Excellent starting point for excursions in the mountains as for refrigerants descents to the sea. My partner and I will be happy to share with you our knowledge of the area, our passions and the fruits of our land. And, for climbing lovers, we are less than 30 minutes from the cliffs of Caltavuturo and Scalfani with hundreds of bolted routes of varying difficulty, a must for anyone who wants to discover "vertical" Sicily
We speak english and some french.

The house has been built and owned by my family since the late 1800's; it is divided into two autonomous and contiguous bodies: one of the two is our home: me (Francesco) and my partner Stefania live here all year round.

Surrounded by ancient olive groves and oak forests, caressed by winds mitigating the summer heat, it is the ideal place for those seeking a relaxing holiday in touch with nature, with simple, authentic and convivial hospitality.

Excellent starting point for mountain hikes or to go swimming in the Mediterranean.
Me and Stefania will be happy to share with you our knowledge of the area, our passions and the fruits of our land. For those who love rock climbing, we are less than 30 mins driving from the cliff walls of Caltavuturo and Sclafani with hundreds routes of different grades, a real "heaven" for those looking for the "vertical side" of Sicily.

We speak English and a little French.
