Staying at La Tenuta
Our stay at La Tenuta was a very relaxing one, a real get away from the stress of the big city to a quiet place with the best view of Etna and Taormina. We booked the flat three days before the arrival, Andrea was very quick to respond and gave a detailed description how to get to his beautiful lemon farm. It was very easy to reach by an airport coach which stops at Ricanati station. Andrea met us at the station and helped with the luggage. When we arrived to the farm and saw its surroundings and the house – it was even better in real life than on the pictures. We stayed in the apartment on the second flour with the most magnificent view of Etna and green lemon orchard for a week. The apartment was spacious and clean, has everything we needed during our holiday. Our little daughter was fascinated by all the cute pets that live on the farm, Igor – adorable dog, and the horses!!! We even had an opportunity to plant salad in the garden. The supermarket and the bakery are situated close to the farm within a short walking distance. There is no need for a car, within 15-20 minutes one can reach the closest beach och Giardini Naxos. There are buses every half an hour to Taormina. The place is a great spot to explore this beautiful area! We can highly recommend Andrea as a host and his lovely farm for anyone!
