moment in paradise
I spent our last moments in paradise, Scopello, a tiny village tucked between mountains and the sea, telling you why you must come to this special place on the northwest coast of Sicily. We have enjoyed 7 days here in a rented casa where we have lived like Sicilians, terrace to the sea in front with incredible view , garden with mountain view in the back. A hammock! Bird song all day long! Sea breezes! Palm trees and pines! Wild flowers, yours for the picking! Two bedrooms, living/dining room, wonderful kitchen, a strong shower with plenty of hot water, an outdoor grill, washer, and satellite with large tv lcd if you can tear yourself away from the amazing views. Both bedrooms have generous closet space so you can stash everything and live like you own the place. We felt at home in this spacious house – our biggest problem was whether to eat our meals looking at the sea, or looking at the mountains. This is a spot to relax, to read, to write, to nap, to cook – or not. Within a 20-minute walk you will reach the center of the town with its sleepy little piazza where the bars serve sfingione (a kind of pizza bread) and pane cunzato (a very particular sandwich of the area) and the ristoranti specialize in fresh fish and vegetables of the season. The town center has a working produce farmette where you can find lettuce, tomatoes, onions, potatoes and fresh fruits to go. The bluest, clearest water you can imagine with a beach nestled in a small cove with mountains sloping to the sea. We don’t know about summer, but in May we owned the beach – the weather fluctuating between perfect and almost perfect every day. The hilly land makes for challenging and fun runs to the sea (for the not-so-fleet-of-foot a 10 minute walk). The property is a 5-minute walk to the entrance of the Zingaro reserve which offers exciting mountain vistas at every turn, beaches, and rugged rock formations jutting out of the sea. the owner was really friendly, welcoming, helpful and couldn't have more for us, from meeting us late evening when we arrived through to checking we had everything we needed in the week." the owner Maria was really friendly, welcoming, helpful and couldn't have more for us, from meeting us late evening when we arrived through to checking we had everything we needed in the week. I can not wait to return as soon as possible
