About this property

18th Century country house between sea and Etna

Situated on a stretch of coast between Catania and Taormina, proudly surveying its estate from the crest of a hill is Villa Bagolaro, an 18th Century country house in a stunning and perfectly peaceful setting between the sea and Mount Etna. Indoor and outdoor living combine seamlessly due to the bright and welcoming rooms and their communication with the terraces. It would be difficult to ask for a more delightful setting.

The area: Villa Bagolaro is an ideal starting point to explore Mount Etna and its surroundings. Etna villages such as Trecastagni, Zafferana Etnea and Randazzo are famous for their ancient lava flows, the architecture of their 17th century churches, their delicious local products and the hospitality of their villagers. Situated 700m above the sea, they are a popular destination for city dwellers who want some fresh air in the summer and snow for skiing in the winter. Few people know that Etna is a popular place among skiers in winter. On some beautiful winter days, it is even possible to ski on frozen slopes in the morning while enjoying a magnificent panoramic view of the Mediterranean and then go sunbathe on the beach in the afternoon!

===== ACCOMMODATION DESCRIPTION =====
The living areas and bedrooms of Villa Bagolaro are all on one floor (the first floor). The villa consists of 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms with shower, small tub, bidet and toilet, a large living area with fireplace and a double sofa-bed, another living area with a fireplace and a single sofa-bed, a kitchen with wood oven and next to it a dining room with dining table. Outside there is also a terrace with seating, deckchairs, extra toilet (in the laundry room), a shower and a barbecue. There is WiFi!

Because of the presence of 2 fireplaces, the house offers a pleasant stay also during the few cold weeks of the short Sicilian winter. There is a maximum usage of 3 KWH of electricity.
