A little hello from Casa Picaro!
If you’ve been following Casa Picaro for a while, you’ll know we’re lucky enough to call this beautiful corner of Sicily home. And if you’re new here - welcome!
I’ve recently relaunched my YouTube channel as “Margaret in Sicily”, where I’ll be sharing little glimpses of Casa Picaro, our life here, our travels and adventures, Sicily itself, mini dance lessons and a few blasts from the past from my many years of teaching.
My first new video, “Sicily Sand Sea & Samba”, is now online!
So, if you’d like to follow my Sicilian adventures, I’d love you to like, subscribe and follow along!

Come along with us as we visit some of our favourite beaches here i...

If Sicily has ever been on your list to visit, now’s the perfect time! Come and experience this magical island with us, the sun, the sea, the food, and the rhythm of life here is truly something special. We’d love to show you our favourite restaurants, hidden beaches, and charming hilltop towns. We can take long walks through the countryside and enjoy slow evenings with a glass of local w**e.

Summer maybe over but everything is still beautiful here in Sicily, even the view after the rain today. Come and stay at Casa Picaro from where you can enjoy everything southeast Sicily has to offer. Taking bookings now, just message for more information.

August maybe hot here but it's full of life and fun.
Another review from recent guests.

"We stayed at Casa Picaro for a week, and it was absolutely beautiful and incredibly relaxing. The host was very friendly and went above and beyond to make sure we felt comfortable. The place was stunning and spotlessly clean, with everything we needed provided.
The location was truly breathtaking. We can’t wait to come back again!
Highly recommended—perfect for a romantic getaway or a family trip."

A comment from one of our recent guests
The lovely town of Noto and several beaches within a short car journey from Casa Picaro. For the more adventurous a visit to Mount Etna is recommended, a longer car journey away but an experience. As you can imagine, Margaret is an amazing host and always on hand to give you advice whenever needed. Hope to revisit in the near future

We are taking bookings for later this year and next year if you would like to come join us is Sicily for a short break or a longer holiday.
Here's just a small segment of one of our recent reviews:-
"We had the most wonderful stay at this charming holiday apartment in Noto Antica! Tucked away in the countryside, the location is truly unique, surrounded by olive trees, wildflowers, and panoramic views of the Sicilian countryside. It felt like stepping back in time, with the added comfort of modern amenities".
