Holiday Apartment Description

Address

A magnificent and picturesque holiday apartment, newly renovated and fully furnished (on the second floor), in the historical centre of Castellammare del Golfo, 500m from the age-old Villa Comunale, 1 km from the delightful diminutive beach of "La Campana" and only 2 km from "Plaja" beach, with its fine, golden sand. The comfortable and well appointed apartment is ideally suitable for a family. One of its many amenities is a 35 m2 balcony-terrace ideal for sunbathing and with a splendid view over the mountains and the sea. The holiday apartment is located in the north-west of Sicily, only 15 minutes by car from the Greek temple of Segesta, from the famous Scopello cliffs and from the specialist nature reserve of "Zingaro". It is the ideal starting point for several of the most interesting cultural and gastronomic tours through the provinces of Trapani, Palermo and Agrigento in Western Sicily, given the easy access by car and other means of local transport. The confectionery and the arts and crafts of Erice, Marsala and its wines, Trapani and the Egadi islands, the archeological site of Selinunte, the thermal baths of Sciacca, not forgetting Palermo and Monreale and so many other unique sites of interest easily accessible by car in around 30 minutes.

Castellammare del Golfo is wonderfully positioned in a bay approx. 65 km west of Palermo. Earlier it was an important centre for tuna fishing but today it is known for its beautiful location. The population numbers 15,000 and everything you could possibly need is available here: restaurants, pizzerias, all kinds of shopping, plenty of life and activities. The town is not great for sights. It has many interesting streets but is more suited for those wanting to stay somewhere with atmosphere close to good beaches. The beaches at Scopello or San Vito Lo Capo are excellent, and the local sandy beach is more than acceptable too. From the top of the mountain peak immediately west of Castellammare del Golfo en route to Scopello you get a splendid view of the whole gulf and the town. From Castellammare del Golfo a train takes you eastwards to and from Palermo and westwards to and from Trapani. Interesting destinations like Segesta and Erice are not far away, and trips inland to Alcamo or villages like Calatafimi and Salemi (with the ruins of the Byzantine basilica) are also easy to make.
