The Experience

You are perched at the summit of teetering Castiglione, with views from every angle over rooftops and vineyards all the way to snow-topped Etna. Inside is on three levels: find a luminous art-and-sculpture-filled living room with French windows, plenty of comfortable sofas, bronze lamps and Modica stone floors; a dining room with an antique table and a gorgeous collection of pea green china plates. The suite is huge and views from here are stunning, the second bedroom is nicely private on the next level up, and the Cave Room on the ground floor is carved from the sandstone rock. Bathrooms are sparkling and tiled, towels are thick and fluffy. You’re looked after by the housekeeper, Maria – she will make cakes and breads to order, and can cook you a delicious Sicilian supper too; breakfast on the terrace overlooking the volcano is special indeed. It’s tempting to stay put but there’s much to discover nearby: Castiglione has ancient Greek origins, Byzantine churches and a fortified tower; Etna can be explored on foot, horseback or jeep; local wine tasting is a must. Owner Denise lives on site in another building and can give wise counsel.

Reviews

David, New York Aug 2017

We had an incredible stay in Denise's beautiful home atop Castiglione di Sicilia. We recommend this to anyone traveling to Sicily! The picturesque, most comfortable living space featured wraparound balcony views of Etna and the surrounding countryside. Breakfast was delicious - and Denise had fantastic recommendations for local eats, activities, and journeys. Thank you so much for a wonderful vacation, and a home away from home!

Adam, London Jul 2017

It was an adventure just to drive up through the town to this for our last 2 nights in Sicily and our stay was the perfect end to the perfect holiday. Our elegant host could not have been more welcoming and her style was reflected throughout the beautifully decorated house. We wanted for nothing and even our teenage children were smitten. Etna gently puffed away as we chatted on the balcony - toasting our arrival and watching the sun sink beyond the castle or toying with our breakfast, as the sun rose over the vineyards. There's much to return for and why would we stay anywhere else?

An exceptional B and B. Supremely comfortable, well appointed, elegant and stylish. A magnificent location with stunning views of Etna, the little town of Castiglione and the surrounding countryside Delicious breakfasts with beautifully fresh ingredients. Denise was most charming and welcoming and her staff efficient and helpful.
