    Such a tranquil place with the swimming pool and a playground overlooking the hills. We only stayed 2 nights while visiting Mt. Etna and Taormina but wish we stayed a little longer. Breakfast served in the old farm room, full of historic artefacts...

Property information

an ancient and fascinating spot, overlooking the sea, with warm and cozy rooms perfectly reflecting the rural style; a place that manages to enhance with excellent taste, the perfumes and passions of the simple men of the past. It's located In the heart of gentle hills, two steps away from Taormina and mount Etna, immersed in the amazing Valley of river Alcantara... Each room is equipped with private bathroom and air conditioning. Each lodge is surrounded by the beautiful orchard with its citrus and olive trees that gently slope to the coastline. In addition to the 36.000 square meter (3.6 hectares) of land for organic orange cultivation, there's the swimming pool area and its wide solarium deepened in green, and our outside relax areas. Guests can freely take walks following different naturalistic paths, observe and if interested take part in the season's tasks. The old structure used to host the different families that helped running the farm. The present young owner has decided to turn it into an agritourism, in respect of this ancient tradition of hospitality. The architectural structure was kept untouched, trying to maintain the original features.

Neighbourhood information

At the turning point to the most interesting sites of eastern Sicily, Fondo Cipollate is the perfect starting point for many beautiful excursions: the enchanting city of Taormina, one of the top tourist attractions of Sicily, full of history and fascination, is the must-see place for those who love not just art, but shopping and nightlife too. Mount Etna and the spectacular Alcantara river gorges, for those who love more adventurous excursions, offer the visitors breathtaking views. Culture, art, excellent culinary tradition, melt in the nearby village of Castiglione di Sicilia also known as the "wine city", and Randazzo a real gem of Etnean baroque style. The extreme proximity to the motorway, allows to reach in about half an hour the historic center of Catania with its night life and intense cultural activities and to plan daily excursions to most of the ionic coast and Sicily center towns.
