FANTASTIC. We really enjoyed our stay. Our flight was cancelled and ended up arriving really late. Maria Francesca's team was really nice and checked us in at that hour. Everything in the house is charming, thoroughly thought of. The house in itself is full of character, and has been tastefully restored. The pool and its surroundings are beautiful. I hadn't realized the house was not in Catania, but a short drive away. We didn't really care, but I'm not sure if you can get around without a car. If you are in that situation I'd recommend you ask the host, she's great and also very knowledgeable of the area.
