Trapani - Duca di Castelmonte - Country inn

Sicily - Trapani - Country inn

A few kilometres from Trapani, located in the upper part of western Sicily, resides a golden treasure of an ancient "baglio", a country residence of the Curatolo family since the eighteenth century. The original barns, stalls and warehouses have been salvaged to become distinct guest lodgings, with country furniture; they overlook olive groves, citrus trees and century old pine trees. A charming accommodation in a perfect position to tour western Sicily.

Strolling or cycling around the premises you will encounter the true family of "baglio" not only the family dogs and cats, but also the friendly geese, turkeys and peacocks. Guests will be able to take full advantage of the available recreational sports such as football, volleyball and out door bowling and for the youngest their very own play area.

In the working farm they grow their own vegetables, citrus fruits and olives, which are then used to produce their classical tomato puree, fruit and vegetables preserves and oil, moreover they cook some typical dish using Sicilian traditional methods handed down the family.

A collection of antique agricultural tools have survived the test of time and with guarded jealousy have been preserved in a museum. The museum itself has been created from a "frantoio" room once used for pressing olives.

Easily reachable from Trapani and Palermo airports, the farm apart from being the destination for countryside lovers, is also a starting point for excursions to famous places such as: Egadi Islands, San Vito Lo Capo, "Lo Zingaro" and the salt-works natural reserves, Erice, Segesta and Selinunte Temples and other places less famous but nevertheless beautiful and worth while to visit.
