A short drive from Mount Etna, close to the village of Randazzo, this country house promises a tranquil escape for larger groups. You'll also be within easy reach of Alcantara Gorge and Nebrodi National Park, with plenty of restaurants and shops nearby. We wouldn't blame you, though, if you spent leisurely days relaxing by the private pool and enjoying alfresco meals on the covered terrace – complete with a barbecue and a large seating area. You'll also have access to the well-kept gardens and a ping-pong table. Just note that the villa consists of a main house and an annexe, including multiple floors with external staircases.
