Baglio Occhipinti

This favourite relais of many happy guests is the result of Fausta's inexhaustible energy and attention to detail. Harmonious interiors, where simplicity and exquisite taste commune with the natural surrounding vegetation, are the key elements of the authentic and relaxing ambience. A unique opportunity to delve into local country life and explore the rich history of the area.

Another great recommendation from Alistair Sawday! Despite the unusually cool and damp weather in May we thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Baglio Occhipinti. The welcome was good, the rooms were comfortable, the staff were all cheerful and helpful. The cold stopped us from dining outdoors in the garden but a log fire was lit in the lovely lounge (previously part of the winery) and it was a pleasure to dine there. The food was fantastic and the wines were exciting! Sadly too cool for the lovely pool but we treated ourselves to very good in room massages!

Wonderful food, wine, hospitality and the chance to meet like-minded, interesting guests. Fausta and her family have created a beautifully designed, yet relaxing environment. There are lots of sites and beaches to visit within easy driving distance. This is high on my list for a return visit. Thank you

In this quiet, rural location in south-east Sicily, Fausta Ochhipinti has created a relaxing and peaceful setting for her guests. The main part of the traditional stone house, once a working winery, offers a stylish and comfortable place to idle away an hour with a glass of regional wine before Fausta serves dinner, a social and communal event beneath the stars and olive trees! Food is prepared lovingly from family recipes, with organic vegetables sourced directly from Fausta's garden. Leaving Bagglio Occhipinti was difficult - almost like leaving a dear friend! - but one can always return!
