The famous scene in which Ingrid Bergmann jumps along the rocky cliffs of Stromboli amongst children and fishermen revealed world wide the splendour and beauty of an ancient land that had been forgotten for too long. Ever since then, film makers and directors from all over the world have been seduced by its unique luminosity and contrast, exotic colors and millenary culture. In recent years, Sicily has been the famous setting for the popular TV series "The Inspector Montalbano" and is now also hosting the new series "The Young Montalbano" and the BBC show "Sicily Unpacked" where the ancient bond between Sicilian culture and its amazing territory is documented in three episodes.

Following Montalbano's traces is an excellent opportunity for all tourists wishing to experience the wonders of Sicily and to discover the beauty of Baroque Architecture. DiCasaInSicilia offers charming accommodation where to feel comfortable and at ease whilst taking part of the rare and unique setting that only Sicily can grant.

Right at the historical centre of Modica, charming baroque town near Ragusa, is sited Cuore di Cava, a luxury apartment in a period building. Located just a few steps away from the main street Corso Umberto, the Garibaldi Theatre and St. Peter's Church, it invites guests to truly experience the magic atmosphere of this place, strolling through its little streets flanked by noble buildings.

Still in this precious historical centre, is sited Casa Modica, a charming house just a stone's throw away from St George's Cathedral. Dating back to the 16th century, this beautiful house has been lovingly restored to retain and enhance its architectural features. It is perfectly located for exploring the enchanting surrounding area. From the towns of the Val di Noto, such as Scicli, Ragusa-Ibla, Noto and Syracuse, to the sandy beaches of Pozzallo and Marina di Ragusa, to the archaeological site of Cava d'Ispica and the Vendicari reserve.

For all those wishing to spend a relaxing holiday the ideal solution is Torre del Cozzoverro.

This charming refuge is an authentic Sicilian estate with Arab influences, consisting of a residential building and a watchtower, recently expertly renovated.

Moving upwards towards the Province of Syracuse, still within the famous "Val di Noto" stands the exclusive Villa Spiga. This residence with swimming pool is sited in the countryside between the UNESCO's cultural heritage towns of Noto and Palazzolo Acreide.
