Unique restored villa with private pool nestled in unspoiled valley
This is the place you dream of discovering when coming to Sicily, a place for tradition lovers and connoisseurs, where you can taste the simple and charming life of an enchanted past. Villa Molinum is an authentically restored miller's house, drenched in history and nestled in 4 hectares of unspoiled nature. A still working mill, an always-fresh creek at 20 meters from the house and a private pool complete the idyllic picture.
A curvy country road bordered with low white walls leads to Villa Molinum. The villa consists of a white main building of 150 m2 and a pink dépendance of 40 m2. The entrance to both units is a green patio overlooking a forest and the creek, where you might even spot one of the owner’s horses running freely.
The main building has four eclectically elegant double bedrooms and two luxury bathrooms, one for each floor. A spacious dining room with a well-equipped kitchen (including a dishwasher) will be the perfect frame for all your dinners, unless you cannot get enough of the stunning views of the surroundings and you prefer to enjoy your meal outdoor. The dépendance consists of a double bedroom and a bathroom, and it can be a romantic hideout for a couple that wants even more privacy. There is a brand new bathroom and a changing room next to the pool.
A fireplace stove in the main building and a wood stove in the dépendance will make your stay in winter warm and cosy. The thick walls of both units will not allow you to sweat while inside, not even in August.
It would be really difficult to ask for more. And yet, here it is possible. You can, for example, go trekking in the bordering Hyblean Mountains, request a horse ride together with the owner, or a dinner cooked with local and organic products. Moreover, at a very short drive or at 20 minutes on foot you can reach the town of Palazzolo Acreide, one of the most stunning Baroque towns of Sicily and Unesco Heritage since 2002, featuring gorgeous churches and an ancient Greek amphitheater. The local delicacies are salami and bread made in all different ways given the miller’s tradition of the area, but you will delighted by wine and artisanal beers too. And do not miss a visit to Corsino, the oldest patisserie in town! Finally, Syracuse, sandy beaches and on the other side Mount Etna are at only 40 km.
In short, Villa Molinum is where authentic features, modern comforts, superb surroundings and a strategic location unite to create a dreamlike atmosphere and let you live a holiday of wonder.

We had an amazing stay in Palazzolo Acreide! The hosts are so kind and helpful with all things in the area and helped arrange horseback riding and a wine tasting for us. They made our time there incredibly special—our whole family’s favorite!!!

The owners, Rosella and Mario, were fantastic. Very communicative and very reactive to some of the problems we experienced. Fantastic location, peaceful and lovely and cool in the house.
Some of the facilities and garden furniture need upgrading/modernising, which we understand is planned.

The villa is in an absolutely lovely setting with a very old still-functioning mill with a working millstone. Rossella and Mario were amazing. They were so responsive and helpful. Including making a dinner reservation for us the night we arrived exhausted after flying all night, and again on Wed when all restaurants were closed they found us a lovely little place. They make their own honey

Beautiful country home. Very quiet and tucked away from the main town, which is charming and off the beaten path. Mario and Rosella are fabulous hosts and are there to take care of anything that arises. Highly recommend and hope to return someday.

Nestled in a valley just twenty minutes walk from Palazzolo Acriede is a hidden Eden. A 16th century mill and millers house have been lovingly restored by the owners, Rosella and Mario. The villa is tranquil paradise where the only sounds are the creek and the song birds. Our few days here were far too brief. We will definitely be returning.

Stunning house with beautiful views and the most lovely attentive hosts. Rosella cooked us a sublime Sicilian meal on the day of our arrival which she served and washed up. Such a treat. Mario joined us for an aperitivo on the terrace and gave us lots of local information. We were here in April and it was a was a little chilly in the evenings but we were supplied with endless barrows of Logs for the roaring wood burner. Such a pleasure to be there.

Secluded Paradise
Nestled in a valley just a twenty minute walk to Palazzolo Acriede sits a secluded paradise. We chose the villa because of its proximity to Siracusa, Noto, and many other sites in southeastern Sicily, but the villa was so quiet and comfortable that we spent a couple of days just enjoying the pool and the peaceful sounds of the water and the birds. The kitchen is large and well equipped, and easily accommodate the eight of us. Mario and Rosella were the consummate hosts. Thank you Mario for helping us find the clinic. This villa is a fantastic treat, and I we hope to return one day to just relax and enjoy this paradise again.

The ultimate Sicilian experience. Very beautiful house with all the necessities you can need! Nice cool temperature inside the house even without AC. The pool is great and it has a pool house and an outside shower. It’s also great to have access to the river. The property around is beautiful. Nice decoration in the house and several spots to lounge inside and outside. Palazzolo Acreide is a nice town near the house. Great attention with the welcome basket. Mario was very helpful and Rosella was adorable and speaks well English and French. Highly recommend!! We would love to come back again.

This is an extraordinarily special place. The landscape is breathtaking and the sense of history is inspiring. The mill, the ancient stone work (dry wall for miles), the olive groves and lavendar fields, not to mention the creek, the pool and brand new pool house-all amazing. Little touches like antique lace trimmed bed linen gave us great pleasure. A tour of the old mill was a treat for the whole family (ages 6-76). And the kitchen has it all- equipped for a real family rather than a tourist drop in. The town of palazzola is a wonderful place as well with a great central square, baroque churches, and memorable architecture and wholly local street life- we walked to town daily. Everyone was enormously friendly but our hosts were first among them! Cant wait to return.

This Villa could not have been more perfect for our girls getaway! The authentic style of the interiors hardly shows in the photos and we spent loads of time lounging around the gorgeous pool and drinking wine overlooking the beautiful stream. We took advantage of the huge kitchen by having a private chef cook for us one night and also did a pasta making class. Our hosts also arranged horseback riding for us and were available at any time if we had questions. Mario and Rosella could not have been more welcoming and friendly. The Villa is super close to the town if you need groceries or dinner and from there we also drove into Noto for dinner one evening, went sailing and swimming in the sea, and explored Ortigia. We really could not have had a better time, we will be back again!

We had an incredible family holiday at the house, the location is absolutely unique and stunning. The pool, gardens and home are authentically and beautifully Sicilian. It’s a very special place to visit, you can walk in the countryside around the house, enjoy the local wildlife, sit in the gardens or go into the local city in 7/8 minutes (car). The local restaurant are incredibly good, there are many top class places to eat and enjoy a range of locally produced great food. We ended up with 3/4 favourite places to decide on every night. The city is also beautiful, a UNESCO location, with lots to do and see. Perhaps the best part of home is the hosts themselves, they are super kind , helpful and great people to meet. They had excellent tips of where to go, what restaurants to try and helped us when our son needed a doctor. We were looking forward to a great holiday and home, and it was even better than we expected!

This house is history in Sicily…. 300 years old in the real Sicilian countryside. The house is beautiful and the kitchen well stocked. The pool was where we spent a lot if our time as we hit a heat wave. Mario and rosella’s recommendations for suiting twins, restaurants and stores was fantastic! Mario even led us into town day one to show us around, bought us cheeses and introduced us yo the cheese maker. Rosella made us homemade almond milk and gave us presents including fresh Lavender and oregano from their land. These owners are truly all in … they responded to every question within minutes and were on site if needed quickly. They are two of the loveliest people you can ever meet.

We had a fantastic time in the Villa. The property is beautifully restored the mill and the river makes the whole place unique. Palazollo Acreide is a nice little town with kind people. The only thing was a bit difficult for us is the little road that takes us down to the villa. It is narrow and steep, probably with a normal car is fine but we had a van which was not suitable for that road. Despite of that the place is great. The hosts Mario and Rosella are very nice people they made our stay very comfortable, also the first day when they saw that we are struggling with our van on the little road they guarded us the make us safe. The mill is fantastic, must see. Thank you so much for the lovely 10 days. I hope we can be back one day.

This place is absolutely lovely. The highlight is the outdoor areas which are so beautiful and peaceful. The pool was larger than i think the pictures show and was kept beautifully clean. Great sunbeds and lots of sunny and shady areas around the pool. The house is large and has everything you need, a very sociable kitchen and cozy sitting room. Bedrooms are all large with lots of storage. Location wise, the house is at the bottom of a narrow road so our taxi asked us to walk up to the road to pick us up. It took 20-25 mins to walk in to the town for food and restaurants. I'd recommend hiring a car as it is a little out of town and there are beatiful areas to explore around. The hosts i can not speak highly enough about. Their communication was excellent and they went out of their way to make our stay wonderful. I would highly recommend this place for your holiday.

This house was perfect for our family vacation. We were a group of 8 adults and enjoyed it very, very much. It is a very special place, decorated with love, and cared for by their owners Rossella and Mario. When we arrived they showed us around and explained all the important things. They also gave us good tips for exploring the area and to shop for groceries. Each detail of the house and garden ist really thought through and special. The kitchen is big and fully equipped, so we really enjoyed cooking there and then sitting in the patio until late at night. The pool was also a highlight: perfectly clean and refreshing, with a fully equipped Bathroom right there (it doesnt show in de pictures because its new). The surroundings are also very beautiful. Palazzolo Acreide is a small town, very authentic and not as touristy as Noto or Siracusa, which are stunning and great for day-excursions at short driving distance. Communication with Rossella and Mario was always very quick and super nice. We absolutely loved meeting them and getting to stay in their wonderful house. Thank you!!!!

We had a fantastic family stay at The Millers House. The comms with Giulia were clear and responsive at all times. The owners, Rosella and Mario, are absolute gems and were so welcoming and helpful. The meal Rosella and Mario organised, with Turi Chef and his wife Gisella, was magical - great food and service in a wonderful setting at the villa. A must-do experience! The house is an authentic Sicilian country villa, 300 years old and lovingly restored; its stone walls are 700mm thick and keep the villa cool at all times. The grounds and gardens are very private, and the pool area was perfect for lounge around, reading books or relaxing with a glass of wine. There are so many intimate areas in which to sit and enjoy the gardens. The nearby spring provides a lovely back-drop of running water, very soothing and calming. The town of Palazzolo Acreide is quite historic but not overrun by tourists. When we arrived, Rosella graciously took us around the local shops, and introduced us to locally-made cheese, meats, bread and arancini. What a culinary delight ! Overall, it was an amazing Sicilian villa experience and we will certainly come back again.

Abbiamo trascorso tre giorni meravigliosi nella villa di Rossella e Mario. Eravamo in 8 e ci siamo trovati benissimo: la casa è spaziosa, accogliente e immersa nel verde, ideale per staccare dalla routine e rilassarsi. Il vecchio mulino antico all’interno della proprietà è davvero affascinante e rende l’atmosfera unica. Rossella e Mario sono stati gentilissimi, sempre disponibili e attenti a ogni dettaglio. Un soggiorno che ricorderemo con piacere e che consigliamo a chiunque cerchi tranquillità, natura e autenticità

We loved our stay The Millers Cottage. The property is beautiful - exactly the Italian countryside stay we were looking for. The Cottage was really perfect for our family -huge kitchen, cozy fireplace in the living room and views everywhere you looked. A treat was to see our hosts animals - dog, cats, horses and mule. Our hosts were very helpful and responded quickly to all our calls for directions or restaurant recommendations. Easy spot to get to the local towns we wanted to visit - Noto, Ortigia, Ragusa and airport. We would definitely recommend staying here. Thanks for helping us make wonderful family memories!

A Sicilian Adventure
This is a beautiful property, deep in a valley, not far from Palazzolo Acreide, a charming, although somewhat isolated town a 45 -55 minute drive from Siracusa. Mario, the owner/ host, is delightful and helpful in every way, and we all enjoyed interactions with him and Rosella and Orso! This is a very old and rustic house and its charm is also its shortcoming, in terms of the bathroom situation, which is uneven. Still, we, a three generational family had a wonderful time exploring the valley, some of us on horseback, and the plains of Akrai, with a smaller version of Siracusa’s Greek theater and other wonderful ruins designated a UNESCO site. Palazzolo Acreide has some gorgeous baroque buildings, the ruins of a Norman castle, many delightful restaurants and a cooking school with Chef Turi. Alyssia, who also does cooking classes, came to cook for us two evenings.We also explored Noto, Ragusa and the Roman Villa Casale as well as Siracusa itself. Sicily is a wonderful island, the Sicilians are warm and hospitable people and we hope to return.
