Il Limoneto is a traditional farmhouse right in the heart of the Ionian coast, commonly known as the “Riviera dei Limoni”.
It expands for over more than 4 hectares and is surrounded by a flourishing green terraced lemon orchard. From here you can admire the wonderful landscape and take a glimpse at its rare beauty, from Etna to the Ionian Sea and the rich nature reserve called “La Timpa” an area of natural beauty and dipped in a splendid garden of lemons and typical flowers of the Mediterranean. Time has not altered its original structure that includes the manor house, the farm houses, the ancient millstone, and fascinating paths with olive trees.
Man lives in strict contact with the surroundings, each trees has its own character and history. They are different from one another.
