Sitting pretty above Noto’s honey-hued rooftops, this apartment delivers a masterclass in Baroque-meets-bold design. Ornate ceilings? Check. Vibrant tiles? Plenty. Artistic flourishes? Naturally. While the town’s historic centre buzzes below, up here it’s all calm aperitifs and lazy breakfasts on the terrace. You’re well placed to explore the architectural drama of the Val di Noto, but we wouldn’t blame you for lingering indoors in the grand elegance of the living room too. And if you’re the sort who likes a good view with their morning espresso, the rooftop terrace has your name on it. *This home is located within a historic apartment building, sharing an entrance with two other residences. *The apartment is spread over two floors with internal stairs, so may not suit guests with limited mobility. *The home is adjoins to another apartment, sharing the same landing – ideal for larger groups if both are booked together.
