Beautiful Villa with Private Pool central for all attractions
Villa Segreta, the perfect destination for your "secret" holiday, located in the natural beauty of the National Parco di Etna in Sicily. The villa is a 300-year-old restored Sicilian farmhouse and winery, with accommodation comprising of a comfortable apartment set on two floors. With an open galleried bedroom upstairs and a second bedroom and other facilities on the ground floor, the holiday Villetta is ideally situated for holidays throughout the year.
The villa is an ideal base for exploring Mount Etna's beautiful countryside and experiencing the untamed Sicilian landscape. The villa is set on 15 acres of olive groves and vineyards with fig, sweet chestnut, cherry, peach, mulberry, and apricot trees, leading directly to some beautiful walks, good for serious ramblers and for those just fancying a stroll after dinner surrounded by wild crocuses and a host of other flowers particularly in the springtime.
For guests looking to visit the cultural heritage of Sicily, Villa Segreta is centrally located to visit Taormina, Siracusa, and the so-far undiscovered gem that is Baroque Catania. The villa is also in close proximity to several restaurants, including two good restaurants within five-minute walking distance, and many more just a 5-10 minute drive. Shops and other restaurants are a 5-minute drive away in either the Market town of Belpasso or 7 minutes’ drive to Nicolosi. One of the most famous ice cream and sweets bars in Sicily "Condorelli" is about a 6-minute drive. The nearest beach is about a 25 minute drive and Etnaland water park is about 15 minutes away.
Villa Segreta offers visitors a range of activities, including making olive oil in December and winemaking in October. In summer, guests can enjoy the beautiful private swimming pool from May to September, and in winter, a cosy open fire is available for those looking to use it as a base for skiing on Europe's southernmost ski runs (usually from December to February).
The villa has two good double bedrooms and a cot available for families. A gas BBQ is provided for guests and many enjoy using the one of the outside eating areas or preparing food at the outdoor kitchen or in the authentic pizza oven. Villa Segreta offers visitors a comfortable and authentic Italian experience in the heart of Sicily. With its beautiful and peaceful surroundings, spacious accommodations, and close proximity to cultural sites, shops, and restaurants, it is an ideal destination for families, couples, or anyone seeking a peaceful and relaxing holiday in Sicily
