Villa Lionti is an 18th century "baglio", built in carved lavic stone, near Catania.
This baglio was an agricultural firm that included a main house with frescoes, decorated transoms and furniture in bois de rose, an oil mill, a millstone for the wine-pressing and some buildings for agricultural products storage.
Between 1996 and 2001 the baglio has been fully restored, respecting the original layout and creating an easy access also for disabled.
Also some buildings for agricultural products storage were converted into suites for the guests. The area containing the tanks for grapes pressing was converted into a library.
A large swimming pool, lined with lava stone and surrounded by lawn, was built in an area of the garden, quite distant from the bedrooms.
The garden, with its native plants and bushes, has been restored following the original plan.
The frescoes, transoms and furniture of the main house were restored and repositioned, so that both the common areas and the suites express an unique and special atmosphere.
