The term "baglio" (in Sicilian "bagghiu") comes from Arabian language "bahah" (courtyard) and from Latin "ballium" (courtyard surrounded by high walls). This is the typical Sicilian farms, where once the workers of the feuds found relief. They were economically self-sufficient organizations, controlled by the owners of the latifundium, that through this way could control all the branches of the farm, as we can say today: from the stable to the accommodations, from the harvest activity to the irrigation, etc.
The "baglios" had several rooms to host the peasants and their families. The flooring was built by slabs of stone, or by cobblestone placed in herringbone pattern or in knife. The structure was surrounded by the external walls, with only one big entrance.
The holiday farm Baglio Rindinella holds the majority of this characteristics, renovated and adopted to the new exigencies respecting the philosophy of hospitality and comfort in the name of the real and true Sicilian hospitality.
With this attitude were built 8 big and comfortable rooms each equipped with inside bathroom, old style furnitures and almost all the rooms have a wonderful view on Erice, Trapani or Egadi Islands.
