Casale 1821 Ragusa in Ragusa.
Guests arrive at this restored 19th-century farmhouse in southeastern Sicily to find stone-walled courtyards, olive groves, and rooms housed in original agricultural buildings.
The estate's rural location on SP60 offers genuine Sicilian countryside surroundings where celebrations unfold across authentic spaces—from the central courtyard to intimate indoor halls.
With 4.5-star reviews, the venue delivers a working agricultural setting that feels removed from typical wedding venues without sacrificing comfort or service.
We enjoyed our stay at this beautiful location. Very calm, clean and well maintained. Not sure why some reviews are a bit critical on the service/hospitality because the owner was super friendly and helpful to us! He gave us lots of tips and was a really nice guy. Breakfast is not included but it didn’t bother us. We just went to the supermarket which was a 5 minute drive to get some breakfast for our mornings. It’s about 15 minute drive to both Regusa old town and Modica.
