Wine-tasting, cannoli and White Lotus sets in Sicily<\/h1>\n

It was our pleasure to recently host Jess Wilson, the Associate Editor of the Sun\u2019s Fabulous magazine, at Casa Franchina<\/a> on the north coast. One of our most popular family-friendly properties, the villa is a short walk from the coastal town of Acquedolci and is brilliantly located for exploring the whole of the north coast, from Palermo to Cefal\u00f9 and eastwards to Capo d\u2019Orlando.<\/p>\n

Jess\u2019s feature in Fabulous magazine highlights some of the simple pleasures of holidaying in Sicily: strolling into town for a cappuccino and home-made Sicilian biscuits at the local bar, stocking up on fresh seafood and preparing dinner in the villa\u2019s alfresco kitchen. Wine-tasting and restaurant meals that involved feasting on slow-cooked octopus with chickpea fritters, and red prawn ricotta cannoli, were also a hit, as were visits to Cefal\u00f9, Palermo and the stunning white sand beaches at Capo d\u2019Orlando.<\/p>\n

For Jess, Casa Franchina was a great option for her and a group of friends. However, the 4-bedroom villa is also ideal for families. The attractive garden has a pool, tennis table and shady veranda with an outdoor kitchen, while indoors the 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms provide ample space for everyone to spread out comfortably. For beach days, a quick 5-minute stroll takes you to the nearest beach, or a half-hour drive to the wide selection of beaches around Capo d\u2019Orlando.<\/p>\n
