Group of restored farm houses
The essence of true Sicilian countryside living. Large property divided into three colonial houses each with private outdoor area; garden with swimming pool and views over the sea. Suitable for big groups and large families.
The property is just two km from Fiumefreddo, a small village at the foot of Mount Etna facing the Ionian Sea, about halfway between Catania and Taormina.
Between the houses there's a patio with a large dining table for 14 people, with view over the orange grove, the sea ad the swimming pool.
The large and subtly designed pool fits well with the lawned terracing and the buildings. There are plenty of shaded areas for outdoor dining and relaxing whilst enjoying the views of the surrounding countryside and the sea.
The estate is the perfect place to combine beach-life with the tranquility of a countryside base.
Villa Cedro has 10 sleeps: On the ground floor there is a large living/dining room, the kitchen, a bathroom and a single bedroom. Upstairs there are three doubles, one twin and one single, all sharing two bathrooms.
Outside the house has his own barbecue and terrace.
Weekly cleaning and linen change is included.
Daily maid service and cook available on request.
Outside the houses there’s the laundry for washing and ironing.
In addition, for those traveling with young children (under two years) a baby bed and high chair are available at no additional cost.
Guests are encouraged to make use of herbs, fruits and vegetables from the estate’s organic kitchen garden.
The town of Fiumefreddo is a perfect gateway to exploring not only the looming volcano but also its many interesting towns and villages. There are a great number of excellent walks in the area and many visits to be made: Taormina, Catania, the Alcantara Gorge and, slightly further afield, Siracusa.
The baroque town of Noto, the quiet beaches of Vendicari and Capo Passero to the south and Messina to the north are all confortably reachable for day trips.
There are also charming fishing villages and several beaches dotted along the coastline around Fiumefreddo, including Marina di Cottone, San Marco and Fondachello (just south).
Further north at Taormina there is a good selection of sandy and pebbly beaches, rocky coves and grottoes: Mazzarò, Letojanni and Giardini-Naxos.
Further south towards Catania there are the charming towns of Riposto, Acireale, Aci Trezza and Aci Castello where the coast is rocky.
An eighteen hole golf course, Il Picciolo, is 10km away and there’s a good tennis club Circolo Tennis Le Rocce, in the little town of Mascali about 10 minutes drive from the villa.
The property is surrounded by the scents and colors of 3 hectares of orange trees, creating a splendid natural backdrop to Mount Etna and the sea. You can go swimming or skiing, while admiring the sea or explore the roads going through Etna's vineyards.
For group larger than 10 people there are 2 more villas (Mandarino and Pompelmo) available in the property. Please do not hesitate to ask and we will do our best to accommodate everybody!
