Film Friendly Hotel: Zash Country Boutique Hotel, Sicily, Italy
Description & Naming
Zash is the deep nature of a sound, its verbal repossession, the sound of the air within the leaves, the burst of a gesture in its flowing movements, it’s one of the infinite sounds that can only be heard and enjoyed by living in the countryside. But most of all, it’s to rediscover the time to live another dimension. We’ll tell you about us by starting with the very first thing: nature’s instinctive and remote sounds.
This is the world of Zash: a COUNTRY BOUTIQUE HOTEL where historical fragments meet a contemporary taste.
Rooms
_10 rooms for a LIMITED EDITION LIVING stay.
>>4 rooms are on the first floor of the old manor house, characterized by high vaulted ceilings, all with full-length chestnut windows overlooking Mount Etna, Sicily on one side and the Ionic sea on the other.
>>3 rooms are located where the wine storage used to be, the wine cellar. The planning includes white volumes containing intimate bedrooms, where the cleanliness of the walls and floors in white resin clearly contrasts with the pre-existing volcanic stonework
>3 rooms are completely immersed in the green of the countryside. Big glass doors make the citrus trees the real walls ofthese rooms.
Lounge & Restaurant
Volcanic cobbled floors polished by the passing of time, magnificent cross vault sequence made of lime and pumice stone, eternal shades full of memory: this is the atmosphere where wine was made and is now offered to our guests while reading the newspaper, drinking or simply during a break delighted by the smell of the citrus fruits.
In the old winery, a “piece” of chestnut tree is mounted between the arches thus defining the bar area.
Meeting Room
The structure has two different areas where meetings or events can take place according to the number of participants and the need. A wider area is located in the old winery, thus allowing the use of more comfortable spaces, it also includes a bar zone for coffee breaks with direct access to the garden.
Another space is dedicated inside the manor house, more intimate and private, to small meetings or business breakfast. An adjoining foyer is arranged for the break with the possibility of enjoying the terrace with a view of the sea on mild days. Only the aroma of coffee or the fragrance of orange blossom and the view of its trees with the Gulf of Taormina will interfere with this bucolic atmosphere.
Fitness Open Air
Running, jumping, hiking, walking or simply hanging about in the citrus grove within this Mediterranean nature full of perfumed clefts. Bicycles are at our guests’ disposal for riding in the countryside and exploring the neighbouring territory.
