Villa Hirschen is situated
in the holiday resort of Zafferana
Etnea that in the past attracted poets,
writers, musicians and movie stars.
Zafferana is half way from the sea and
Mount Etna, steeped in nature and
in all the ancient and authentic Sicilian
traditions.
Villa Hirschen is the ideal place for
excursions to Etna national Park and to
the most important Sicilian cities of
art. It is a modern building, with a big
private parking, set in Etna's beautiful
woodlands. A very comfortable location
for a relaxing holiday.
