Idyllic country house, panoramic pool with sea views, quiet, WiFi, heating, 7 people

The 200 m² house has been restored recently and comfortable. It is set in an approximately 5 000 m² large land with meadows and pastures, about 330 m above sea level.

It is beautifully decorated and has a kitchen, dining room, living room, two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a superstructure with double bed and two covered porches, one with spectacular views to Siracusa's entire environment and its coasts.
From here you can even see Mount Etna. You can enjoy fantastic sunrises and sunsets.

The accommodation is suitable for six people, extra bed available for a small surcharge.

Now there is a pool with magnificent views that invites to linger.

There is also a barbecue available for our guests.

In summer you need no air conditioning due to the high altitude and the thick walls. For the colder months the house is equipped with a heating system.

You can do a lot and relax at the same time.

Perfect Getaway
This is a beautiful property in a quiet location with lovely views. The house is very comfortable with every need met. The owners provided fresh vegetables and fruit upon our arrival. The pool is beautiful and clean. The beds are comfortable and we all slept well. We highly recommend this property!

A wonderful stay. Amazing location with clear views to the sea and Syracuse, which is only a 35min drive away. On a clear morning you can see Etna too. The local town of Cassibile is about 15 mins drive down the twisty road. Whilst not the most pretty the people are very welcoming, there is an excellent small super market, and numerous food stores. The cafes are superb, selling also incredibly good and cheap midday lunches. We recommend the ragu arancini. The house is superbly appointed. Excellent kitchen, and loads of space both inside and out. Air con in every room if it gets hot! The twisty road up is not a big deal if you are used to European roads, and has a high safety wall, so don't let that put you off. The owners are so welcoming and helpful. A very generous care package is left at your arrival, including olive oil from their own orchard. Quite excellent.

Stunning views and tranquility
The property was clean, well-equipped and even better than the photographs. Enzo, the house agent, met us and led us up to the villa. There was torrential rain the day we arrived so we were very glad he was there. The road is very windy in parts, but we soon got used to it, using the horn as needed. Georgio and Lucia were there to greet us, they were so kind and friendly, despite our very limited Italian. They gave us home grown fruit and vegetables and their own olive oil, and there were enough basics to start us off plus a welcome bottle of wine! Georgio was sometimes tending the land very early in the morning but was never intrusive at all, just giving a cheery wave and checking we were ok. We had a wonderful stay, relaxing in the pool, enjoying the views and the wildlife, and having evening BBQs. The weather was fabulous after the first day. There are lots of lovely places to visit within easy reach, we especially enjoyed a boat trip from Ortigia, Syracuse archeology park, Noto and Ragusa. We did a day trip to Agrigento to see the Valley of the Temples but it was close to a three hour drive each way so with hindsight probably a bit too far. It was our first trip to Sicily and we will definitely be back!

Serenity and beauty
Exceptional experience all around. The house is as depicted in the VRBO photos--better. What can't be captured is the gracious reception, hospitality and practical accessibility of Enzo (property manager) and Georgio and Lucia (owners). We have rented many houses and apartments in Europe and this is our favorite. The kitchen and dining room(s) are remarkably well-equipped: we shopped at the wonderful market in Ortygia and cooked every night; what a joy to have all the cooking and dining utensils needed (weak link in other places we have stayed). Wi-fi worked great, especially considering how remote the house is. The only drawback is the ride up the mountain to get to this uniquely beautiful home: slow, blind switchback ascent may not be for everyone. Once we got used to it ("beep beep" warning around the curves) it got easier--and adventurous drivers (I'm an old far), may actually like it. Thank you, Enzo, Luana, Georgio and Lucia for an extraordinary week. We'll be back!

You wont be disappointed !
Superb property and superb hosts. Photos really don't do the property and pool justice. Most of all the view - A snow capped Etna is magnetic to see and look at. Some tips - not obligatory, but worth hiring a car with good ground clearance. We found Noto the best place to eat locally (30min drive) with a wide variety of nice restaurants to suit all tastes and pockets, a really nice place too. Don't miss the walks to Cava grande and especially Pantalica Necropolis. Taormina is a picture post card place, definately worth the trip together with Savoca. Needless to say Etna is a must, but be careful about the trip on offer at the cable car kiosk. Given the time again, I would have paid a little extra for a small group to go higher. The hosts - just really nice people. Enjoy !

Absolutely amazing
This is the 3rd property we stayed at while in Italy. It was an amazing home to stay in. The pool was perfect, the view was outstanding, and the house was everything you could want. But what made this place truly amazing where the hosts Giorgio & Licia, they went far and beyond to make our stay not only remarkable but incredibly memorable. I will definitely miss them and their beautiful home, and can’t recommend this property enough.

A perfect stay in a beautiful house
Enzo was brilliant and met us off the motorway to lead us to the house. Georgia and his wife were so welcoming and friendly. They had provided food for us and even thought to provided equipment for our baby which was greatly appreciated. Our daughter loved Georgio!! They gave us loads of recommendations of places to visit. The villa itself was beautiful and the views were outstanding. We had a very relaxing week. We would love to visit again.

Great house in a beautiful place
This was a lovely property in a vibrant and joyful part of Sicily. The house is large and comfortable and very quiet. The setting is rustic but with modern amenities and a lovely pool. The kitchen had everything we needed and we often ate out on the lovely patio. We really enjoyed our stay.

Bellissimo!! The perfect get away if you want peace and quiet and the pool with a view of Mont Etna!
We just had the best get away! We came here for our honeymoon and couldn’t have asked for more. We wanted to sit by the pool and do absolutely nothing… and that’s what we did. We loved every moment, be it by the pool, drinking Aperol watching the sunset or grilling fresh fish on the BBQ (all provided for). It was excellent. Enzo met us to drive to the property which was super helpful as it’s about 10/15mins from the main road. Georgio & his wife (the owners) were on site to greet us with fruit and veg from the farm. All of which tasted incredible. Georgio farms on the property but you don’t notice he’s there and it’s only for an hour a day, normally in the morning. They are so lovely and very welcoming. Overall it was excellent and I’d recommend to anyone. We were just two people but also great for families.
