The agriturismo is absolutely stunning. If you got to this page on Airbnb, just book it and don’t think twice about it. The house is in the middle of nowhere, you are surrounded by pure nature. In the mornings we got woken up by goats and sheep. You can hear chickens and different farm animals while enjoying breakfast. You can do many many hikes in the area and it’s really beautiful.
The place is additionally absolutely spotless. It seems to be recently renovated, and all bathrooms are very clean. The inside of the house is kept in an old style but it has its charm.
Nonna Teresa, alongside her daughter and helpers, preparers the most delicious meals. For dinner and for lunch you get an amazing bottle of homemade wine, and for breakfast they cook their own cake. All the food you eat comes from the local area and you can be sure it’s fresh and healthy. If you walk 10 minutes away form the house you can see where they grow tomatoes and aubergines and where they keep their bees.
It’s an absolutely amazing experience and I wish we had stayed for a few more nights. The additional benefit is that you can see stars at night since there is literally no one else around with light.
The only thing to note is to come from Catania and not from the Palermo-Messina highway, so you want to absolutely make sure you’re going through a town called Antillo. Otherwise you’re going through a mountain road which was designed for horses and not for cars and it’s pretty obvious. The road from Catania leading through Antillo is very good except from the last 2km but any car can make it.
