The Casina del Forno is situated in a prime location on the Ciricò hill, surrounded by a charming Italian-style garden filled with lush plants, vibrant flowers, and a romantic pond adorned with water lilies and koi fish. It serves as the perfect retreat for those seeking relaxation and peace, while still being just a 15-minute drive from the lively city of Catania.

In addition to its beauty, the garden features an organic fruit orchard that provides fresh seasonal fruit, from oranges and lemons in winter to peaches and apricots in summer.

Next to the house, guests can unwind under a pergola draped with fine grapes, creating a perfect setting for tranquil moments.
