Le Case di Don Peppino

Tucked into Modica’s hillscapes, Le Case di Don Peppino is a country house a short drive from Ispica Cave, Corso Umberto I and the Chocolate Museum of Modica. Pet-friendly and family-friendly, it’s a quiet base for exploring Baroque churches, archaeological sites and the city’s winding streets.

This intimate property has just two guestrooms, each with a kitchen and a private balcony or patio. The vibe blends rustic Sicilian charm with simple comforts: a rooftop terrace, garden and a fireplace in the lobby add character. Rooms include a shower, TV, iron/ironing board and complimentary cribs on request; housekeeping is provided once per stay. Staff speak English and Italian.

Take in views from the rooftop terrace and unwind in the garden. Onsite highlights include a welcoming lobby fireplace, a picnic area and barbecue grills for al fresco meals. In-room kitchens and private outdoor space make mornings easy.

Free self parking is available onsite. Dry cleaning and ironing services are offered, and staff can assist in English and Italian.

There’s no formal restaurant, but the picnic area and barbecue grills set the stage for outdoor meals. Venture into Modica to sample the town’s famous chocolate and classic Sicilian flavors at local cafes and markets.
