Holidays in Motta Camastra

Snuggled into the Peloritani Mountains, high above the sea, Motta Camastra is a small but perfectly formed holiday haven. Think narrow streets where houses stand cheek-to-cheek. A refreshingly rural setting among vineyards and walnut groves. Plus sea views from every angle – you've got the Ionian Sea to one side, the Tyrrhenian Sea to the other and you can see all the way to the Aeolian Islands. It's picture perfect to say the least. But that's what this place is all about. It's as far from the tourist trail as you can get. And it's a nature lovers' paradise, too. The hills around the town are home to a rare species of Falcon – the Bonelli. So strap on your walking boots, delve deep into the countryside and get to grips with some of Mother Nature's best work. Motta Camastra isn't lacking on the history front either. Cue one ancient Norman castle complete with a tower and its very own Cathedral. Add to the mix a couple of restaurants, a bar or two and a handful of grocery shops, and you've got all the ingredients for the perfect hideaway haven.
