Description
A recently renovated farm with pool in a stunning and perfectly peaceful setting between the sea and Mount Etna, close to Acireale and not far from other country houses and cottages. The private pool (size 10 x 5 m., deep 160 cm) is in use all year round. The house has a magnificent view on the majestic volcano Etna. Situated near the town of Acireale on the east coast of Sicily, Casale Acqua e Fuoco is a good base from which to visit Taormina, Catania, Mount Etna and the various fascinating villages on its flanks called 'paesi Etnei'. The property is situated 3 km from Acireale, famous for its baroque churches. The picturesque fisherman's villages Santa Maria La Scala and Santa Tecla (5 km) both have pebbled beaches and a small port with vividly painted boats and good restaurants. In summer the villages become a seaside destination for the islanders who enjoy diving off the wooden platforms into the cool Mediterranean waters. The house is located on the highest part of the estate, overlooking an infinite number of lemon trees, huge Mount Etna and the coast as far as Taormina (35 km). The garden is beautifully tended, with palm trees and Mediterranean plants and flowers.
The house is perfect for joined families or a group of friends. It consists of 5 bedrooms, 5 bathrooms (with toilet, bidet and shower), a dining room with open kitchen, sofa bed and a dining table for 12 persons. The rooms are all on the ground floor. There are three units with own entrance. The units and the kitchen are not connected from the inside. Unit 1 has a terrace with sea view, a double room, a twin room and a bathroom. Unit 2 consists of 2 double rooms, a single bed and two bathrooms. Unit 3 is a spacious double room with bathroom. The kitchen opens onto a covered terrace, perfect for al fresco dining. All rooms have air-conditioning. The terrace of the pool is equipped with comfortable deck chairs. Casale Acqua e Fuoco is close to exit roads and therefore a perfect base from which to explore Sicily.
