let yourself be lulled by the silence and the intense scent of Sicilian citrus fruits
Your Mediterranean refuge
Donna Caterina House is located on a gentle hill in the middle of Sicilian countryside, just 2 km from the historical center of Pietraperzia. It is a typical central Sicilian rural house, surrounded by beautiful and lush Mediterranean vegetation.
You will be enchanted by the sinuous and spiky lines of its centuries-old olive trees, the intense green of its hazel trees, and the picturesque shapes of its citrus trees. You can relax on many sunny days, listening to the song of the birds, watching beautiful flowers in the shade of the chestnuts, or taking a walk in the garden that offers a delightful octagonal fountain and a multitude of palms and succulent plants. In the evening, you can hear the soft chirping of the cicadas and fall asleep under a clear sky of stars.
