The old winery is situated on the east side of the Etna, and you can see the smoldering top of the vulcano from the lovely garden, if the weather permits. The pleasantly secluded house itself is very nice, with two bathrooms and lots of space. The fire place makes evenings cosy, and the pool table is fun. It might take a couple of minutes by car to get to some shops in a nearby village, and 20 minutes to the highway, but for a relaxing book-reading non-beach holiday it is perfect. Very close to some marvellous hiking trails, for instance. Sophia is a great host, and picked us up from the village upon arrival, and made us feel right at home. As it was slightly chilly in October, she even arranged for two extra electrical heaters, which was very kind of her. It was a pleasure staying at the house. Recommended!
