This travel account gives a flavour of 'agritourism' in Sicily, where the authors spent time at a Sicilian farmhouse in the northeastern Madonie mountains, which include Sicily's largest nature reserve. The Madonie are in a chain of ridges stretching from the Italian peninsula across the Sicilian Channel to Tunisia, where they rise as the Atlas Mountains. The Madonie region is off the beaten track yet reasonably close to Enna, the hub of the interior, and Piazza Armerina, a small town outside Enna famous for its striking mosaics of an ancient Roman estate.
