SPEND A NIGHT AT THE LIVING MUSEUM
B&B at Palazzo Previtera from £128 per night (palazzoprevitera. com/en).
IN A tranquil garden on the slopes of Mount Etna, near Taormina, lies what is rightly described as a living museum.
After ten years of restoration, the 17th Century Palazzo Previtera in Linguaglossa is now a guesthouse and one of the most extraordinary places to stay in Sicily.
The bedrooms are filled with pieces collected from the past 500 years of Sicilian history – from ornate Baroque beds (with new mattresses) to
Neoclassical chairs and contemporary artworks.
You can also browse the palazzo’s collection of more than 2,000 books, including a 1758 edition of John Milton’s Paradise Lost.
Breakfast is made up of Sicilian delicacies, while wine tastings can be arranged at one of the 210 wineries nearby.
