Guests at this Airbnb are invited to stay at a lovely little corner of the world, tucked alongside the historic, majestic Mt Etna. We were warmly greeted by the host next door, and his family of kittens and chickens.
This home is situated within a private and peaceful plot of pomegranate trees and kiwi trellises, as well as walnut and chestnut trees. We were provided with a bounty of fresh produce he’d grown and a tea cake made by his wife, set on the kitchen table near a hearth. The interior is elegantly appointed by one of their daughters, an architect with an eye for stylistic contemporary furnishings and an understanding of all the necessary modern conveniences (including directions to a wonderful artisanal coffee and pastry shop in town). The dwelling retains the cozy charm of a farm house tended with care. We felt blessed to discover and enjoy a respite on our journey around Sicily and are grateful to have met such sweet and generous hosts.
