Casa Beatrice

Casa Bea is a living piece of Sicilian history — layers of stone and soul built across 1840, 1920, and 2015, perched on a rock ledge deep in a 150-year-old pine forest above Lake Rosamarina.

Wake to mountain views of Caccamo and beyond. Fall asleep to the distant ring of cowbells drifting up from the valley. No noise, no rush — just the kind of silence you came to Sicily to find.

The main villa offers four bedrooms and two bathrooms wrapped in an ancient Roman stone terrace. Two separate guest buildings each have their own ensuite bathrooms — one with a private kitchen — perfect for families or groups who want space without losing togetherness.

Slip into the deep plunge pool or the smaller wading pool, both gazing out over the lake and mountains. It never gets old.

Thirty kilometers from Palermo, Casa Bea sits on the doorstep of the medieval walled town of Caccamo — home to the third-largest castle in Europe and legendary Sicilian sausage. Cefalù and a constellation of historic sites are just a short drive away.

A private world. An unforgettable base. See reviews below!

“Our recent family stay at this beautiful house with a mesmerizing view was an absolute delight. The house’s architecture combined modern elegance with rustic charm, creating a cozy and inviting atmosphere. Each morning, we woke up to a breathtaking view that left us in awe. If you’re seeking a dreamy retreat with exceptional views, this is your place.”

“Our stay was PERFECT! The house is phenomenal-beautifully situated overlooking a reservoir surrounded by rural Sicilian countryside.

Olive trees, goats and a hill town in the distance - the works! The property farmhouse that has been tastefully restored with a mix of new and antique furnishings-stylish but not precious. Modern conveniences are provided for including good wifi, effective A/C, plenty of hot water, dishwasher and washing machine.

The main house has four bedrooms + two full baths over two floors and has modern very well supplied kitchen/great room. The main house is supplemented by two detached en-suite apartments, one with kitchenette.

While we found the house perfect for two you could comfortably accommodate 5 couples with feeling crowded. The exterior has several patios including a terrace surrounding a deep pool with a separate smaller soaking tub plus and outdoor shower.

We loved getting out and exploring Sicily, but you could easily park yourself at the house and never leave. The property is accessed via a partially unpaved rural road so an SUV is recommended-we had no issue but nervous drives should be aware. Services, shopping and main roads are about 15 mins drive away. Superlative experience!”

“This place was amazing! We had six people and for us the place was very spacious, with three different houses and rooms all over. The scenery was beautiful with great views. This was definitely worth the stay. The only minus was the road, but once you get the hang of it, it is definitely manageable. Just make sure to not rent a car that is too large. Also, do not miss out on letting Bruno and Giovanni cook for you!”

“I cannot praise this lovely house highly enough. The house is delightful. It is a beautiful place to stay with stunning scenery. The most noise came from the sheep bells from the local flock and the occasional snuffling of wild boar late at night!. Everything you could need is in the house and it has so many lovely touches. We especially enjoyed watching films on the projector! The outside space is beautiful too. The pools are amazingly refreshing on a hot day and having a deep pool for swimming and a shallow one for walling in was a real treat. Do not miss out on a home cooked local meal by chef Bruno. It will be a highlight of your stay. All in all, one of the best retreats we ever stayed in.”

The house is awesome, bbq, perfect terraces and fantastic lounge outside. The pool and view are also magnificent.
