The agriturismo

Just 30 km from Catania and25 kmfrom Taormina, on Mount Etna,is a nineteenth century villa immersed in 5 hectares of land, born as a holiday residence and has become an agritourism structure that produces extra virgin olive oil alongside the cultivation of vegetables and cherry trees.

Upon reservation the restaurant also hosts receptions for weddings, first communions and birthdays. Rooms and mini apartments are available for overnight stay.

The farmhouse has been restored and brought to its former glory. The restaurant, also ideal for events, has a fixed menu very nice from appetizer to dessert, prepared with the best ingredients of the farm and the Territory, such as Snails(Helix Aspersa Aspersa) and Extra VirginOlive Oilproduced onthe farm.

The accommodation

Guests can stay overnight in independent rooms furnished with elegant antique furniture or in mini apartments.
The internal hall of the restaurant overlooks the courtyard, while the external stairs, on which a fragrant jasmine climbs, lead to a large terrace in old terracotta from where you can access the old millstone, another more intimate room where you can eat and talk.
Finally, a large panoramic terraceoffers a breathtaking view of the sea and Mount Etna.

Ample parking suitable also for coaches.

Rocca della Rosa was an absolute gem. The cooking was fantastic with an amazing range of delicious Sicilian home cooking. We were very well looked after and the kids enjoyed running around and exploring the farm. Thank you very much to Carmela and Nino! Read more

The rooms are very comfortable with a fridge in ours.
Comfortable beds too. Quiet place. Beautiful and well maintained building. Very nice pool with shade around it. It has a deep end, ideal for children to jump in.
We eat very well.

Thank you Laure, the presence of your family has characterized last July at the Rocca della Rosa, your discretion and sympathy made us remember that the world is smaller than we think, and that good manners have no nationality ... Your return to close the Sicilian stay with us was the icing on the cake of our work, all focused on the reception, viva la Carbonara!
