Villa il Tufo - Tufo is typical stone of this area - is a delicious villa in the countryside of Marsala, city of the western side of Sicily.
It's a place where one may contemplate and marvel at the changing colours of the environment and the rooms: from the splendid turquoise of the infinity pool, which blurs into the blue of the Sicilian sky, to the magical shades of the sunset painting itself over the sea and the Egadi islands, a spectacle to enjoy from the panoramic terrace.
At the entrance, you are greeted by a large courtyard with a garden of palms and olive trees, the large swimming pool and elements made of Tufo and local stone.
In the garden, there is a large walled barbecue area with an elegant gazebo.
The city centre of Marsala, with its amazing baroque old town and its wonderful scenery, is within easy reach from the villa. Walking through its streets will feel like taking a walk through history, finding behind every corner the signs of many traditions and cultures that contributed, over time, to the unique mix you have the chance to witness today. A lot of different dominions on Sicily and on Marsala have followed one another: Phoenicians, Arabs, Spanish, the heritage of all these different cultures is still vivid in customs and traditions, but most of all in gastronomy, so don’t miss the chance to discover the delicious typical dishes of the area. Among them, the sweet Marsala wine surely is the king!
Our beautiful villa is located right between Marsala and the stunning Stagnone Nature Reserve, a valuable protected site that includes a lagoon made of four island, the worldly famous Mozia among them, that host rare flora and fauna. If you’re into sports, you will love to try kite surfing in the area, especially on Signorino Beach, well-known among kite surfers around the world and host to the Kitesurf World Cup in 2013.
Around here you'll find astonishing views and wonderful sandy beaches, just driving along the coastal road. The one spot you cannot miss in Marsala area is surely the Salt Plans: at sunset they offer a terrific view, with the silhouettes of the windmills standing against the sun and, If you're lucky enough, a flock of pink flamingoes flying by!
