Agriturismo L'Uliveto

Tyrrhenian Coast


Lovely local couple Cherubina and Giacomo manage this simple but welcoming agriturismo just off the main road between Santo Stefano di Camastra and Mistretta. Guest rooms have views of the squiggly road below and the surrounding hillsides dropping abruptly to the coast. Cherubina's abundant meals feature olive oil, fruit and vegetables harvested onsite.
