Azienda Trinità, the farm run by Salvatore and Marina Bonajuto, is located at Mascalucia on the slopes of Mount Etna, not far from the old town centre. 2000 years ago a Roman settlement rose on this 450-mt high hill, which is now covered with lava and by a unique 3-ha wide botanical garden full of Mediterranean and exotic plants. A biological mandarin grove and two vegetable gardens are the cultivations of this estate, which is still irrigated with the traditional so-called "saje", an Arab word indicating handmade piping through which water flows.

Guests can spend pleasant week-ends or entire weeks, lodging in the flats – all equipped with a kitchenette – inside the rural buildings. The refined menus are inspired by real recipes of the Sicilian cuisine and are composed mainly by vegetables, citrus fruits, garden herbs and spices giving a special taste to every dish.
Guests can pick directly from the tree a lot of different fruits: citrus fruits, prickly pears, persimmons, walnuts, chestnuts as well as summer fruits.

It is also possible to organize walks up to Mount Etna, visits to historical houses and private gardens, sightseeing tours to the monuments of the city of Catania, excursions for grape harvest and olive pressing, courses of naturalistic water color and lessons of local botany.
Thanks to its location, Azienda Trinità is a very good starting point for excursions along the east coast: Taormina, Catania, Acireale, but also Siracusa, Noto, Ragusa and many other destinations in the south east region are easy to reach by car.

The rooms: The rural buildings, recently restored and well equipped, date back to 1609 and include the manor, the stable, the millstone and the cellar. In the farm guests can spend pleasant week-ends or entire weeks, lodging in comfortable flats – all equipped with a kitchenette and a bathroom – inside the ancient buildings.

Production: You can also buy DOC red wine type "Barone Antonio", honey, olive oil and biological mandarin oranges.
