Play lord of the manor and take over an entire Sicilian country estate with a main villa and five independent chalet-style cottages. In addition to a play area, a heated pool and jacuzzi, there are adult mountain bikes and children’s bikes available and you can also enjoy picking home-grown fruit and vegetables.
Situated in a mountain village on the slopes of Mount Etna, Le Dimore dell’Etna has a lovely countryside setting but is close to the beach and the towns of Acireale and Taormina on Sicily’s east coast.
Set amidst a landscape of sprawling olive and citrus groves and vineyards, the estate itself covers a large area of well-maintained gardens, paths and ponds, interspersed with sheltered shady furnished corners and scattered with ancient stone benches amidst clusters of rose bushes and pine trees. There is also a kitchen garden. There are several areas where you can eat leisurely meals outside, as well as a picturesque barbecue area with a dining table.
A children’s play area, overlooked by a terrace with a gazebo, is located between the main villa and the five cottages. A sixth cottage is a gym facility, containing a range of exercise equipment. There is a large heated, saltwater pool, surrounded by a paved area with deckchairs and adjacent jacuzzi, situated alongside the villa. Close by, there's a four-seater sauna and outdoor shower.
A separate restored farm house, with a large sitting room with dining area and a country-style kitchen with wood-burning oven, provides a lovely communal living and dining space for large groups, with a convertible pool table. The basement of the farmhouse is a wine cellar where the owner keeps the homemade wine that he sells. Lovers of sport will be happy due to the villa's own private tennis court.
The main villa is on two floors. Downstairs, there is a large country-style living room with a fabulous floor-to-ceiling glass wall that overlooks the garden. Still on the ground floor, the rustic kitchen is furnished with a table and chairs, and leads out to a large covered veranda. There is also a study which has been converted into a double bedroom that can be booked for additional guests. Upstairs, the large master bedroom has a beautiful beamed ceiling and wood floor, an ensuite bathroom and private terrace. There is also a second double bedroom and a twin, which share a bathroom with shower.
The five timber-clad single-storey cottages are behind the pool area, with a large shared patio, and each comprising one double bedroom and a bathroom with hydro-jet shower. One of the cottages is a triple.

If guests wish to request the pool to be heated during their stay, we ask that you let us know at least a week before your arrival, which gives the pool enough time to heat up. If this request is made too close to your arrival, we cannot guarantee that the pool will be warm for your holiday, but the same cost will be applied.
The heated jacuzzi is available all year round for an extra fee.
Heating in the villa (six hours a day) is available all year, at an extra cost.
