Home description

Le case del Principe (literally the Prince’s houses) consist of five cottages, previously small farm buildings belonging to the estate named Pietraperciata. They have been completely refurbished and equipped with every possible convenience. They are strategically located for whoever wishes to visit this particular area of Eastern Sicily.
The estate is situated in the centre of an extensive cultivation of citrus fruit and olive groves, only few minutes from the sea (Isola Bella, Mazzarò, Giardini Naxos and Taormina).

The 100 s.q.m cottage is named Lunasole and can accommodate max 4 adults and 4 children.
It consists of :
2 double bedrooms with their own bath with shower, a sitting room with a small mezzanine with 2 beds for children 5/16, a kitchen-dining room (new !) with a small mezzanine with 2 beds for children 5/16, an exclusive patio with cane covering and creepers (9x9m.), an exclusive garden (9x9m.).

All rooms are equipped with air conditioning units that can be individually regulated and provide both hot or cold air.
Each cottage is equipped with its own cooking area, with working surfaces in marble, built in units and cupboards with cutlery for four people.
Extra bamboo armchairs and garden tables are available. The furnishings are all of the most excellent quality and are mainly of Sicilian-Mediterranean inspiration, both the furniture itself, which is of 19th century Sicilian origin, and the tiling, which was made in Santo Stefano di Camastra, the original capital of Sicilian ceramics.
The floors are done in old terra cotta tiles and the roofing with Sicilian bamboo canes, as were the old farmhouses in the past

The Sicily region

There's no other place on Earth like Sicily.

This island is a unique mild climate place full of art, archeology, history, folklore , breathtaking scenery and splendid landscapes all year round.


Taormina area

Perched on a rocky spur at about 200m height, Taormina occupies a fabulous position, overlooking the sea and right opposite Etna volcano.

It has been a popular destination for travellers since the 18th century, although only in the last decades it has developed into a well-known tourist resort. Many foreigners, notably British and German, have decided to build villas in the town and many illustrious figures fave sojourned there, including Emperor William II and King Edward VII, and such famous families as the Rothschilds and the Krupps.

A mild climate, a splendid landscape and serene outlook have made Taormina famous worldwide

Long.: 15°, 17' East) and is easily reached by air (the Catania "Fontanarossa" Airport, which is 55 km from the estate or that of Reggio Calabria, which is 75 km. Away). The cottages can also be reached by train (Taormina - Giardini Naxos station, which is 5 km. away, or by car via the Catania-Messina motorway, exiting at Giardini Naxos).
