Casa Migliaca - Bed & Breakfast in Sicily
Contrada Migliaca, 98070 Pettineo, Messina
Sicily,
Italia
An irresistible 30-acre lemon and olive farm – come in October and join in the olive harvest – the original home of Sebastiano and Maria Teresa, now passed to their son Luca. The limestone farmhouse occupies a converted olive mill and sits in tangled gardens, surrounded by grounds which yield a heavenly array of fruit and vegetables for use in Enza's local specialities, inspired by Luca's mother.
Rooms are spacious and charming, with tiled floors, traditional furniture, white walls and unfussy en suites tucked into corners. Signs of the building's former use are prevalent, from the bed, on a section of glass floor for viewing the olive reservoir and the oil mill lounge. Sumptuous breakfasts of breads, cakes, fruit and cheese are served buffet-style from the kitchen table or out in the pretty garden.
This is authentic Sicily in all its Mediterranean glory, as seductive as you would imagine such a place to be.

Gianluca Catalfamo:
- Casa Migliaca is an active working farm, alongside the traditional olive oil production, cultivation of lemons. It covers approximately 12 hectares and with a constant flow of spring water.
- Ideal starting point for outdoor activities: maps available to those who want to find hiking routes of varying length and difficulty that are available nearby. The sea is just a few km away.
- In the period of the olive harvest, in Sicily usually the second half of October, you can actively participate and take home your share of oil in proportion to the olives harvested.
- Italian language courses for foreigners are held at Casa Migliaca, by reservation only, and conducted by professional teachers with daily, weekly or monthly lessons.
- Mistretta: ancient village with a strong medieval imprint which maintains, in an exemplary manner, its original architectural features; make sure you visit the alleys and streets of the town with stone buildings and the streets paved in stone.
- Cefalù: important tourist centre of Arab-Norman origins, do not miss a visit to the Cathedral, the Washing Saracens, and for the most willing the climb up to the rock above following the path up to the temple of Diana and then the medieval walls.
