This was the highlight of our 19 day trip to Sicily so far !
Giuseppe is a perfect host and Motta is the perfect village. For us the two most worrying things before leaving London were the hill roads leading to the village and that it might be a bit too remote or uninteresting. So firstly the roads were really good and not at all worrying to drive with beautiful scenery ( We always drove in the day light hours but really would have been fine anytime) The village over Christmas was idyllic I don’t have space to say every amazing thing thing in this tiny hill town we witnessed from Carol singers, A live Nativity performed by the most beautiful firelight, to the great barman in the local and only bar, the list goes on. Stay for longer than you think you will need and enjoy real Sicily with a perfect host and great location. Oh the view of Etna from the house is more than you can believe and a quick walk upto the crosses for a spectacular view !
Ps the house was great especially as we were able to properly cook for ourselves. We had everything we needed in the kitchen it was exactly as described, but funny enough the most insignificant part of our amazing Christmas in Motta was the house the trip was made extra special by people, being hosted so well by Giuseppe and the town of Motta x
