Company info

Lovers of the countryside and the traditional Sicilian food, Fabrizio and I have chosen to live in this place rich in history and Sicilian tradition that we have preserved and we want to make known to the world, even through the food, culture and nature.

Property info

Terre di Himera charming agriturismo & Extra Virgin Olive Oil near Cefalù Do you like the hotels with telephones in the rooms, where they remember the number of your room but not your name? Do you like fast food? Well, if that’s how it is, you’ve clicked on the wrong link... If, however... you’re thinking of visiting the Arab-Norman itinerary among the wonderful sights of Palermo, and the seaside at Cefalù, and you’re looking for a peaceful and relaxing refuge surrounded by olive trees in the midst of the authentic Sicilian countryside, far from crowded tourist destinations, in a place where you can experience real traditional Sicilian cooking, then you’ve probably found just the place for you. The only place near the Cefalù seaside where you can have an authentic Sicilian experience by tasting our extra virgin olive oil on our warm bread baked in a wood oven. Simple, friendly, slow.

Neighborhood info

Archaeological site not far from the sea. A few kilometers from Cefalu and Palermo, close to rural villages of the Madonie and the main Sicilian motorways.
