Surrounded by green hills, not far from the slopes of the Etna, on a marvellous hill hanging between time and space, rises Hotel Agriturismo Gigliotto, a fief of over 200 hectares of fertile lands cultivated according to the peasant tradition.
Placed in the heart of the Land of the Sun, in an ideal position for trips to Taormina, Agrigento, Syracuse, Noto and Ragusa Ibla, the farm-house is surrounded by famous tourist places such as Piazza Armerina with its Roman Villa, Caltagirone, beautiful for its historic town centre and known for the production of majolicas as well as Morgantina, an ancient Greek town with its agorà and its wonderful theatre.
The farm-house, a 14th century former monastery, develops all around a Sicilian court-yard on which 26 comfortable rooms and a dining room appear, as a place of magical union between the typical fragrances and flavours of the Island cuisine made of biological products, served with Nero d' Avola wine.
Our guests can enjoy a big swimming pool, a fixed riding place with expert guides, a small museum with peasant tradition as well as walks in the silence of nature, in the greenery and in serenity.
Gigliotto farm-house is family-run by Elio Savoca and founded in 1990. He has restructured the existing buildings, improved the territory and planted Nero d'Avola grapes respecting a rigorous programme of low environmental impact. He has invested in order to enlarge the surface of high-quality grape land to build the new winery. |
