The Masseria

The Masseria is the combination of four independent but communicating lodgings, the Loft Nocellara is central, this is joined by the Biancolilla apartment and the Moresca and Zaituna rooms. This makes it possible to have a single 140m2 home with four double beds, four bathrooms, two kitchenettes, two living rooms and two dining areas, four TVs. The living rooms have a further 3 sofa beds, 2 of which are 1 and a half square for a maximum capacity of 12 beds.

lovely house in the country
We had a great stay at this lovely country house which is set in beautiful countryside. The garden and patio area are great for dining outside. The host wa very helpful with ideas of places to visit and there was a store cupboard of essentials we could use which was really handy. We visited many lovely places in the local area and enjoyed the local speciality pizoli (not sure on spelling) a kind of double pizza yum.

calme absolu et excellent accueil
La location était d'un calme absolu, seuls des ouvriers viennent travailler sur la propriété, en restant discrets. Elle est isolée au bout d'un improbable chemin de 800m au milieu des oliviers. Très spacieuse, avec tout le confort et le nécessaire, climatisation inclue mais de gros murs isolent bien également. Quelques animaux autour, ambiance champêtre (chiens gentils et peureux, chat, cheval, poules ..). L 'accueil de Giovanni était parfait, toujours à notre service pour donner des renseignements et conseils, dans un anglais impeccable. Nous avons même eu droit à une bouteille d'huile de sa production et des oeufs frais. La localisation est très pratique pour visiter l'Etna, Syracuse, notto. Merci Giovanni nous avons passé de merveilleuses vacances

Agréable séjour au calme et à la campagne;
Belle maison spacieuse et confortable, très bien équipée. Les propriétaires sont sympathiques et le chat très affectueux ;). Calme assuré: aucun voisinage, seulement un de temps en temps un ouvrier agricole très discret et la maman de Giovanni qui s'occupe du potager et fleurs. merci encore pour les oeufs frais et légumes. Petite suggestion : la clim du salon aurait besoin d'un petit entretien.

Perdu dans la campagne, mais sympa !
Maison agréable qui dispose des produits de 1ère nécessité. Heureusement, car elle est vraiment perdue dans les champs d'oliviers, au bout d'un chemin d'accès improbable... Accueil sympa des propriétaires, beau site.

Ruhiges Landhaus in stimmungsvollem Olivenhain. Sehr sympathische Gastgeber. Erholsamer Urlaub.
Giovanni ist ein sehr freundlicher und hilfsbereiter Gastgeber. Seine Englischkenntnisse sind sehr gut, sodass wir sehr interessante Informationen über die Umgebung und die Geschichte des Landgutes erfahren haben. Das Haus ist voller Erinnerungen und wir haben es sehr genossen, in einem sehr stimmungsvollen typisch italienischen „Zuhause“ gewohnt zu haben. Für uns war es eine gute Gelegenheit, Sizilien nicht nur aus dem touristischen Blickwinkel zu betrachten, sondern ein wunderbares Erlebnis, Italien von einer sehr persönlichen Seite kennenzulernen. Dafür ein großes Dankeschön an Giovanni. Wenn wir wieder einen Urlaub auf Sizilien verbringen werden, dann sicherlich auch in diesem gastfreundlichen Haus.

grande maison, au calme
Grande maison, au calme (malgré le ronronnement tres distant de la rafinerie à plusieurs kilometres) et accueil tres sympathique. Tres bien placée pour visiter syyracuse, et les environs.

Heerlijk
Wij zijn van 28 aug tot 11 sept 2017 hier geweest en hebben het hier heerlijk gehad . Bij aankomst stond onze gastheer Giovanni al buiten om ons te verwelkomen en het huis met enorme tuin rond te leiden , Het huis heeft vele zitjes zodat je als het erg warm is uit de zon kan zitten .Hij heeft ons ook vele plaatsjes en strandjes aangereikt waar we zeker gebruik van hebben gemaakt .Wij vonden de plek voor ons te afgelegen ,hoewel de de omgeving en opkomende zon prachtig is ,een auto moet je dan ook zeker hebben .Als je naar dit deel van Sicilië gaat moet je zeker Noto, Modica, Catania,Siracusa,Toarmina en natuurlijk de Etna bezoeken .Wat wij erg fijn vonden was omdat onze vlucht in de avond was wij in het huis konden blijven tot het tijd was om te vetrekken. Als je van rust,ruimte ,geen massa toerisme en lekker tussen de sicilianen wil vertoeven , moet je het zeker doen !

Casa rural
Giovanni ha sido un anfitrion muy amable y atento. La casa correcta y bien ubicada para conocer la parte oriental de Sicilia. La única pega -aunque por lo visto es común en Sicilia- es que para depositar la basura tienes que llevarla en el coche a unos seis kilómetros, a la entrada de Melilli, donde encontrarás los contenedores de basura más cercanos. El camino de acceso, desde la carretera, es algo complicado para coches con poca altura en los bajos.

A calm and relaxing stay
We spent a nice week at Giovanni's wonderful house that is situated between olive groves and almond trees. It is a very remote location, so perfect for anyone who wants to be undisturbed and in nature. The magnificent garden and olive trees field are a perfect path for long walks in the quiet, and you can discover on precious little fossiles on stones that are left from ancient times. It was wonderful to have the breakfast in the morning on the terrace and to use the open fireplace in the evenings. We spent our week there in February so the open fireplace gives the house a nice warmth. If you are a friend of animals this is your place, the cats are adorable and you have regular visits of horses in the garden, company of dogs, etc. Its location is very convenient, because you can reach the highway taking you to Syracuse and Catania very easily. For any problems Giovanni and his family are very careful and present. The olive oil produced by Giovanni is excellent, and the house is already filled with food in case you arrive late and need to rest before the first shopping time. The beds are comfortable, and plenty of blankets, pillows, towels are provided. A car is absolutely necessary if you want to enjoy all the hiking possibilities in the surroundings and visit especially the South-East of Sicily. We can highly recommend this place if you want to discover South-East Sicily.
