Minissale Farmhouse

We didn’t stay in the hotel, but we did a amazing cooking course: We booked the a cooking experience at Minissale Farmhouse, not knowing that Tino and his family would spend so much time cooking with us and teaching us. We made the most delicious tagliatelle, which Tino then cooked to perfection. We filled cannoli and as an added bonus we prepared bruschetta. Skills we look forward to using at home! Before this, Tino showed us the gardens and fruit trees, picking pees, onions, mulberries all for our meal. We would highly recommend this amazing experience to anyone, as not only do you learn so much, you also get to meet Tino and his amazing family. Thank you Tino, we look forward to coming back again next trip!!

Rooms, Accommodation, Location Very clean and very modern, air-conditioning and towels and mats changed everyday. You can see most of Etna from Tino's place, you will need a car to stay here for any longer than a few days. 5 minute drive to the local beach st marks, the pool is currently being finished. 20 minutes from Taormina, 50 minutes from the airport. Extremely quiet and tranquil! Fairly central we had the car and drove all over Sicily, 10 minutes from a motorway. Food and Drink The food is all grown and prepared onsite, the food is amazing, cooked by Tino (owner) and his mum and dad. I cannot stress how good cooks Tino and family are! For a 4 course meal and a bottle of wine a night it was £100 Euros for the 2 of us. All alcohol available and always cold when you ask for it. Local restaurant blue ice at the beach is also lovely great food and great staff! We tried lots of places as wanted to experience as much of Sicily as we could. Hosts Tino and his mum and dad are so lovely! Tino speaks good English and even though we don't speak Italian we till managed to have a good laugh with his parents. Anything we asked for or wanted Tino was more than happy to help weather that was local knowledge or advice. Our flights were even cancelled because of the terminal fire and Tino stayed up with us until 2am trying to help us with flights to get home couldn't have done more. Tino and his Mum also provide a cooking class where we made home made pasta and cannoli, also comes with lunch and wine. Very very fun and they both make learning traditional Italian methods very enjoyable. We loved our time at Minissale Farmhouse Tino and his family are amazing people. The location is very peaceful and very well maintained. Hire a car and explore Sicily from here couldn't recommend more highly! If you want to be away from the crowds of a hotel and get a real feel of peace and quiet and the Italian countryside get your to Minissale and have a Sicilian adventure like we did! Thank You!

We had a very nice stay at Minissale. We were welcomed by a very friendly family. The location of the Farm House is very quiet. The only place on earth were you don’t hear anything ! No worries if you didn’t had the time to plan your holiday, Tino will propose and arrange several places to visit. (even in English or French). You can have breakfast and diner at the restaurant, accompanied by wine if you wish so. The cuisine is typical Sicilian, they are using the products of their garden (tomatoes, olives, lemon, oranges…. We stayed at the Naxos room which is a luxurieus room with a big terras. They are making a swimming pool which will give even more added value to the place.

The place is situated in an amazing area surrounded by greenery. The view in the morning is very relaxing. Tino and his parents are very nice people. They are very warm people, helpful and lovely to chat with…..We will definitely come back :)

Séjour très agréable, Tino et sa famille sont extrêmement gentils et prévenants. Tino nous a donné pleins de conseils pour profiter au mieux de notre séjour en Sicile. Nous avons séjourné à l’hôtel et dîné au restaurant. Tino est un excellent chef, nous avons très bien mangé avec des produits du jardin ! Séjour à renouveler sans hésitation !

Un'esperienza veramente che ci ha ridato serenità. Il posto è meraviglioso. La camera è bellissima, dove regna pulizia,ordine e la cura in ogni dettaglio. Il mangiare offerto è di altissima qualità. Tutto a km 0, quasi a dire a metro zero. Abbiamo soggiornato un fine settimana dove siamo stati coccolati dall arrivo fino ai saluti. Grazie in particolar modo al proprietario Tino ed ai suoi fantastici genitori che lo accompagnano in questo lavoro certamente faticoso ma pieno di soddisfazioni! Per concludere i nostri migliori auguri e un arrivederci a presto!
