BedAndBreakfast La Casa Del Ficus

"La casa del ficus" is a private villa set in lemon-groves a short distance from the sea (2 km) and from Mount Etna, situated in Guardia Mangano, on the outskirts of Acireale (CT). A few hundred metres away is the centre of Guardia where all the main services (supermarket, chemist, newsagent, post-office etc.) can be found. The railway station, with its frequent connections north to Taormina and Messina and south to Acireale and Catania, is just 300 metres from the house. The Giarre exit of the motorway is 4 kilometres away. The part of the house used by guests has recently been modernised in rustic style using typical sicilian materials; the rooms enjoy a private bathroom and, on request, also a kitchen. The guests can use their own separate entrance, a parking space in the large courtyard, not to mention the 350 sq mts of garden with its own furniture for those moments of total relaxation. Suggested activities: trips to the fishing villages along the coast, excursions up Mt Etna (20 minutes by car), visits to the nearest towns of artistic interest (Acireale, Acitrezza, Catania, Taormina etc) Languages spoken: English, French and Spanish; available all year round
