A delightful stone cottage, very private and romantic surrounded by luxurious Mediterranean vegetation.The gorgeous swimming pool with a spacious solarium is cast between Arab-built lava stone dry walls.Set on a terraced hillside, overlooking the Ionian Sea. The cottage is bare stone built, and tipically laid out with spacious outside areas. Behind it there is the eternal majesty of Mount Etna. Birch House is set on a hillside and overlooks the lovely furnished swimming pool measuring 13 m x 5 m. The swimming pool is shared with our guests of Villa Pioppi nearby (listed on this site) The pool open the 1 May and 15 October is closed. Past the main gate there is the private parking area. The owners are generous and very friendly. They keep chickens, geese, and guests are welcome to help themselves to fresh eggs every morning-imagine the taste!
