Our structure, a prestigious Sicilian villa of the 800’s combines the exclusive atmosphere of a family residence with a more modern approach in accommodation. We dispose of various quiet rooms, sound-insulated, with charming panoramic views; it is the ideal place to relax between excursions. At the same time, it is possible to meet the owners who love to offer warm hospitality to their visitors.

Each room, recently renovated and well-appointed, is equipped with bathroom, independent entrance (walk-in), indoor parking, heating or ventilation fans that also function as air – conditioning, according to the season, satellite TV, DVD, phon and fridge. The guests can avail themselves of the magic atmosphere of an old garden with lemon trees, as well as wide balconies, one of which is equipped with a kitchen corned and barbecue.

We are located in Trecastagni, an ancient and quiet village at 600 mt of altitude, on the slopes of the Etna. It is the ideal place for excursions to the volcano since it lies half way along the road between the Mountain and the legendary Riviera dei Ciclopi (20 minutes drive) where one can also have a swim in the beautiful waters of the Jonio Sea. We are 15 km from Catania (a half-hour drive), also the same distance from the airport of Fontanarossa; 35 km from Taormina and 6 km from the toll and the Catania bypass, from which one can easily reach many interesting tourist sites of East Sicily (Taormina, Siracusa, Noto, Piazza Armerina and the baroque towns of the Ragusa area) on a day trip.

We had a short but very sweet stay at Case Zuccaro. Giovanni and his lovely wife were the perfect hosts and showed us around this lovely 18th C. home. After a hard day's trek on Mount Etna and a stroll around the lovely garden he prepared us a fabulous meal as we chatted in a cosy, relaxed setting with local wine, limoncello and fruits and veg to hand. What more could you ask for. The rooms are attached to the main house and each have their own entrance, which is great as you are free to come and go without disturbing anyone else and there is a place on the grounds to park. The only slight negative is the blind exit onto a main road as you leave the property but if there are two of you one can hop out of the car and check that the coast is clear which it generally was. Lastly the breakfast was to die for. Warm cornettos, fresh bread and rolls from the bakery, Giovanni's homemade jams. If your planning on visiting Etna (which is spectacular) or the wonderful Greek Amphitheatre in Taormina (30mins by car) do stop at Casa Zuccaro you won't regret it.

It is one of the most beautiful Bed and Breakfasts I have stayed at, with quiet rooms overlooking a magnificent and lush garden. Mr. Giovanni, a person of rare courtesy, a stay I will never forget, thank you so much!

Giovanni is a friendly and efficient host. The rooms are spacious and welcoming, and the house evokes ancient memories and has a beautiful garden. Breakfast is served in a pavilion in the garden. A must-try are the delicious homemade citrus jams.

Mr. Giovanni, a very cheerful and friendly person, welcomes you to his home, just a few steps from the center of Trecastagni, a villa with a large park and green spaces. Excellent opportunity to park inside. The breakfast, in a dedicated area in the park, weather permitting, is truly pleasant, good homemade jams and preserves, nice to find fresh bread on the table (not always available in B&B), I would only increase the variety of choices for those who enjoy a savory breakfast (but it's a personal opinion). Excellent location for visiting nearby towns and Mount Etna park. Clean and welcoming room. The air conditioner is a bit old-fashioned and noisy, but you get used to it...

Davide grazie per il tuo commento. Speriamo di rivederci.

Well-organized and clean structure. The owner is a very kind, helpful, and very friendly person. My family and I had a great time, the food is excellent and the owner is a great cook. I recommend it to people of quality who know how to appreciate good taste, courtesy, and good cuisine. The structure is welcoming and comfortable.

Hey, I'm Giovanni

Of us do not want to talk, I would rather say to tell my guests what they think of us: While hospitality in Sicily is better than in any other part of Italy, it is also true that no one like Mr. Giovanni in homes Zuccaro made us feel so good. It 'was like being hosted by a friend and in a few moments we felt at ease. Mr. Quattrocchi, wonderful host, along with his wife runs the house of Zuccaro making guests feel at home: "Home sweet home". The owner Mr. John du hospitalité east plus qu'appréciable, the parle français et est très bien serviable, The owner Giovanni est très gentil et parle français a parfait! We remember with pleasure your kindness and hospitality Fantastic hospitality of the hosts. A landlord friendly and amenable!
