Surrounded by floral terraces and a garden of olive trees, Cala Bianca is a well-located summer house within reach of the beaches, rocky coves, restaurants and shops of Scopello and Castellammare del Golfo. The cool, comfortable interiors spill out onto a series of shady terraces and an outdoor kitchen that provides an effortless al fresco dining experience. You can reach the rocky beach below Cala Bianca through a descendent tiny path surrounded by beautiful mediterranean plants. Inside: accommodation at Cala Bianca is on two floors. The main entrance takes you in to a spacious, comfortably furnished open-plan living and dining area with a kitchen, fireplace, and large glass doors leading out onto the front and rear terraces. The ground floor is also home to the main sleeping quarters, comprising a double bedroom with access to the front terrace, a single bedroom, a double-twin, and two shared shower rooms. A flight of stairs takes one up to the first floor where there is another spacious lounge area and kitchenette with access to a sea-view terrace, and a double bedroom with en-suite shower room and views over the olive groves. Outside: to the front of the house, accessed from the living area, is a huge terrace that is fully furnished reclining, gazing at the stunning sea views, reading in the shade and dining. On the other side of the house, once again accessed from the living area, is a well-equipped, shady outdoor kitchen and dining area, complete with wood-burning pizza oven. It is here where you will probably cook and eat most of your meals, with the garden of olive trees, cacti and Mediterranean flowering plants for company. There are also two outdoor showers, perfect for cooling off after a day at the sea. The first floor has its own romantic terrace offering beguiling sea views, while another flight of steps leads up to a small roof-top viewing point, with 360-degree panoramas.

We are happy to welcome people from all around the wold.

The small town of Scopello (5-10 minutes' drive) has a few excellent restaurants and bars and on the way there, there are a few basic shops. The old tuna plant of Scopello, is in a very suggestive setting, and the Zingaro nature reserve offers a range of spectacular walks and some beautiful crystal clear bays for swimming. Even closer, just a few minutes along the road to Scopello, is the pebbly beach of Guidaloca which has a couple of fully-equipped lidos. For the more agile, meanwhile, there is a bay down below Cala Bianca. The access is via quite a steep cross-country path that starts right in front of the house. The nearby town of Castellammare del Golfo has several seafront bars and restaurants and a daily fish market.
