Maude

Set in the DOC wine region on the slopes of Mount Etna, and approximately 20 km north of Catania, the second largest city of Sicily, Villa Maude offers the ideal balance between the sea and the countryside, the traditional and the modern. Located in an area of great natural beauty, this newly restored independent villa is a haven of calm and serenity. Crossing its gates you will think the time here stopped a while ago. The facade of the property remains in fact unchanged retaining the structure of a typical wine making facility. The interiors have been completely renovated with a contemporary eye, and this juxtaposition creates a nice and dramatic contrast. This three-story villa can accommodate a total of 8 guests, and also includes a separate annex ideal for weddings or large group celebrations.
