Very impressive on all counts
This place was brilliant. Great room, great setting and lovely host. We were even able to have a late drink on the roof terrace watching Etna erupt.

Great value rustic stay!
Thoroughly enjoyed our two night stay - Tony was very hospitable and the room was very pleasant. Fantastic view of Mount Etna to the rear and Sea view at the front. Beautiful grounds and a lovely breakfast too.

Favourite stay in Sicily
Fabulous location with stunning views. The property is authentic and beautifully decorated. Located in a quiet area off the road. The room was very comfortable with a large bed, sofa, full bathroom the host provided a stocked mini fridge of local drinks at a very reasonable cost. Breakfast is extra at €5 per person and is plentiful and delicious with all local fair. We stayed 3 nights but could have happily stayed 3 weeks. The property is within walking distance to a small town that has an excellent restaurant, pharmacie and market. ur room also had access to a rooftop terrace that had a 360 view of the sea and Mount Etna.
