Just a few steps from the charming center of Trecastagni, in the heart of the Etna Park, Case Zuccaro stands as a Sicilian villa from the 19th century, rich in history and charm. Here, guests can immerse themselves in an atmosphere that combines the exclusivity of a family residence with the convenience of modern services. Recently refurbished, the rooms offer a tranquil retreat, equipped with private bathrooms, independent entrances, and comforts such as heating, air conditioning, and satellite TV, all designed to ensure maximum relaxation after a day of exploration.

The environment is enriched by the charm of an ancient garden and large terraces, perfect for enjoying the Sicilian climate. Among the fragrances of lemon trees, guests can use a barbecue area and a kitchenette, ideal for outdoor dinners. The villa, owned by the same family for over two hundred years, tells stories of tradition and hospitality, making every stay unique and memorable.

The strategic location of Case Zuccaro makes it easy to access the main points of interest in eastern Sicily. Just 15 km from Catania and 35 km from Taormina, guests can easily visit iconic destinations such as the Alcantara Gorges, Syracuse, and Noto. Furthermore, for nature lovers, excursions on the majestic Etna are easily reachable, as well as the beautiful Cyclops Riviera, famous for its crystal-clear waters.

Breakfast, a moment of pure goodness, offers a rich selection of coffee, milk, and fresh juices, accompanied by delights such as freshly baked croissants, homemade jams, and seasonal fruits. Giovanni, the owner, with his passion for Sicilian cuisine, will be happy to share the secrets of local gastronomy with guests. Through cooking lessons focusing on the preparation of traditional dishes, guests will not only savor but also learn to cook specialties such as pasta alla Norma and the famous Farsumauro.

Case Zuccaro is not just a place to stay, but an experience to live, where every guest feels pampered and part of a big family. With a warm welcome, Giovanni and his wife manage the structure with attention to detail, ensuring that every stay is savored as a moment to share and remember.

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.

All the people who work and live there are very friendly, helpful and love to chat. The accommodation is breathtakingly beautiful, we felt very comfortable. My children were allowed to play in the courtyard and everyone was very loving with the children. The only negative is the location: if you are not mobile, you have enormous difficulties getting out of Trecastagni. The bus comes every hour, but when and whether at all is the question. A taxi ride to Catania costs €70! I can recommend it to anyone to vacation there, you will not regret it. Thank you very 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...

stayed from 08/20/2021 to 08/22/2021

The answer from the host:
Davide grazie per il tuo commento. Speriamo di rivederci.

nadia

Beautiful structure in an ancient building, quiet with a large outdoor garden; Mr. Giuseppe is a perfect host who welcomes with extreme cordiality.

Grazie per la bella considerazione che ha tratto dal nostro B&B. Tanti cordiali saluti. Giovanni.

filadelfio

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!
