About this property
Villa Mulinello is a characterful Sicilian retreat set within peaceful countryside just outside Modica, where traditional architecture and modern comforts come together in a relaxed, welcoming setting. Thoughtfully restored, the villa retains its authentic charm with stone walls, warm textures and simple, elegant interiors that feel both homely and refined. The living spaces are bright and sociable, designed for easy holiday living, while the bedrooms offer a calm and comfortable place to unwind after a day exploring the island.
Outside, the villa truly comes into its own. Surrounded by open views of the rolling landscape, the generous terrace invites long, leisurely days in the sun. A private heated swimming pool takes centre stage, ideal for cooling off in the warmer months or enjoying quieter swims in the shoulder seasons. There is ample space for outdoor dining, whether it is a laid-back lunch or an evening meal as the sun sets over the countryside.
Villa Mulinello offers a sense of seclusion while still being within easy reach of Modica’s historic centre, known for its baroque architecture and renowned chocolate-making tradition. It is a wonderful base for discovering the rich culture, flavours and coastline of southern Sicily.
Villa Mulinello is set in the rolling countryside just outside Modica, in the south-east of Sicily, an area celebrated for its baroque towns, rich culinary heritage and easy access to the coast.

Modica itself is a short drive away and is renowned for its striking architecture and historic centre, a unesco World Heritage Site. The town is also famous for its traditional chocolate, with artisan shops and cafés lining its atmospheric streets. Nearby, the towns of Ragusa and Scicli offer further opportunities to explore Sicily’s baroque beauty, with elegant piazzas, churches and restaurants showcasing the region’s flavours.
For days by the sea, the southern coastline can be reached within a short drive, where sandy beaches and clear waters provide a relaxed contrast to the countryside setting.
