Tenute Baglio Passofondo

Alcamo, Italy

Property details

A charming and comfortable stay in a gorgeously-renovated rural estate in northwest Sicily with a pool and wellness facilities - includes breakfast, welcome drink and private Jacuzzi option
  • Ancient beauty: Housed in a Sicilian baglio - a traditional Italian farmhouse - Tenute Baglio Passofondo is a gorgeous old farm building and courtyard restored to the stylish comfort of a modern guesthouse. Set amongst rolling vineyards and centuries-old olive trees, the estate will transport you to an idyllic scene of Italian rural life, whilst ensuring optimal comfort in up-to-date guest accommodations, with plush white beds and slick, modern fireplaces.

  • Wellness oasis: With dusty gold and green hills stretching for miles around, your hotel’s refreshing blue oasis of a pool and rustic wellness facilities await. Immersed in perfect quiet, take a dip in the modest outdoor swimming pool with its waterfall feature and tiles all shades of blue, and afterwards indulge in a variety of rejuvenating facials, peels and scrubs, deeply relaxing massages or other beauty treatments (fees apply).

  • See and taste: From vibrant lemons to olive oil production, trace the stories of local agricultural tradition on the colourful mosaic tiles decorating the walls, and prepare to sample sublime, seasonal flavours in the dining area or al fresco in the courtyard. For a fee, you can even dive deeper into the local culinary culture by joining a cooking class in the gorgeous farmhouse kitchen, touring and tasting the olive groves or opting for a classic wine tasting.

Location and what's nearby

Baglio Passofondo, Strada Provinciale 119, km7, 91011 Alcamo TP, Italy

Beyond strolling or cycling around the scenic landscape bordering the baglio, there are more stunning hiking trails to be found in the Bosco di Alcamo Nature Reserve, a short drive from your hotel. Beautiful pine forests abound, and it’s a relatively easy hike up Mount Bonifato to panoramic views over Alcamo.

Head on into the town of Alcamo itself, and marvel at the old Barque cathedral, soak up the lively atmosphere of the square over your aperitivo, or browse street markets. You might not want to miss one of the world’s best preserved Greek temples at the Segesta ruins (within reasonable driving distance from your hotel), and a day at the beach on Sicily’s northwest coast is not far either!
