(AT THE CASTLE) DA LORENZO
A HOLIDAY AT THE ISLAND OF FILICUDI - RENT ROOMS FOR YOUR HOLIDAYS.

Filicudi is an ideal island for anyone who wants to spend his holidays close to nature, far away from confusion and pollution caused by mass tourism. It is one of the few places where progress hasn't changed nature.
"O CASTIEDDU" is located in Valdichiesa and is situated 300 metres above sea level. To the north there are the felci mountains from wich you have a wonderful view of the other eolian islands and the coast of sicily and to the south it goes downhill towards the sea.

Valdichiesa is about 4 Km from the sea so you can hire a car or a motor-cycle or you can take a walk to the town on foot wich takes about 15 minutes. All across the eolian island there are paths which give you the opportunity to discover the most picturesque and wild spots of the islands.
"O Castieddu" is the biggest building of this town and it dates back to the nineteenth century when Castellano Liberatore, who is called "U Gnure" (Gentleman) arrived at the eolian island. He reclaimed the land and gave work to the people of Filicudi. He planted vines and caper bushes and is now buried in the church of Valdichiesa.

He built a two-storied house, the ground floor was for the servants and the deposit of goods whereas the first floor was his luxurious residence after the emigration of the fifties when Filicudi depopulated the big house remained empty until it was restored at the end of the nineties.
When restoring the house, holiday flats were made to offer tourists the possibility to spend their holidays in a magnificent and fascinating place with a splendid view of the sea in which the other eolian islands are reflected and from which you can admire Capograziano, famous for its archaeological excavations which date back to the first settlements of people.

All flats have two rooms, a kitchenette with fridge, bathroom with shower and a typical large terrace with sea view and a private entrance.
