Dimora Cottanera - Hotel in Sicily
SP 89, Contrada Iannazzo, 95012 Castiglione di Sicilia, Catania
Sicily,
Italia
Snooze on a sun lounger under a pergola, wander the beautiful gardens, dip into the whirlpool tub, or float in the pool gazing at the vineyards and the Alcantara valley – it couldn't be lovelier. Breakfast is a feast: Provola dei Nebrodi cheese and cured meats, fruits and squeezed juice in season, homemade cakes and brioche. Suites are all spacious with a minimalist feel, private outdoor spaces (most with views towards the vineyard), Sicilian photographs on the walls and spoiling bathrooms.
Friendly, attentive staff glide about; there's a lovely internal courtyard with comfy sofas for herbal teas or a glass of estate wine. You can book a massage, head to the fitness area and work off breakfast or simply sit in the sauna.
Stroll through vineyards soaking up the peace or visit the three natural parks surrounding you – Etna, Nebrodi and the Alcantara River Park, famous for its gorges and where you can go rafting and hiking.

- The castle of Lauria dominates the town of Castiglione, and it was born as a defensive fortress of the city; it was built on the sandstone rock, surrounded by strong defensive walls and was a perfect military defense.

- Castiglione di Sicilia is a village between the Etna and Alcantara parks. Its narrow and old streets and a castle at the top of the hill attested its ancient origin. The town is full of monuments and artworks, especially churches such as the seventeenth-century Church of Sant'Antonio Abate.
