Nature house in Castiglione Di Sicilia (Gravà)
Sicily, Italy
- 4 persons
- 2 bedrooms
- WiFi
- Pets allowed
Within walking distance of the 100 soul village of Grava, above the river Alcantara, you will find the campagna of the Truscello family. On the dirt road, opposite a shepherd's family, is the nature house, once intended for storing wine and olive oil, now converted into a cottage for 5 people. There are several shaded terraces under vines in a jungle of greenery. At the back of the nature house is a large garden, complete with deck chairs, under a huge palm tree. Separated from the garden is our orange and lemon orchard and a huge vegetable garden. In the garden you can pick anything to your heart's content. Oranges, tomatoes, olives, peppers, fennel, lettuce and olives are grown by hand in an authentic way. To swim in the river, or sunbathe on the beautifully worn lava banks, walk 100 meters through the orchard to the river.
Nature and surroundings
The family's land is located in the middle of the Alcantara Valley, the greenest valley in Sicily. Our land, about a hectare in size, extends above the lava banks of the Alcantara River. A spectacular river with fresh ethnasmelt water. The village is within walking distance,there is a church and there is Aunt Pina's simple store. A large supermarket is a kilometer away. Old villages such as Castiglione and Motta Camastra seem stuck against the cliff. In 3 quarters of an hour you are on top of Mount Etna, from the north side, driving through hazelnut and oak forests.
