General Info |
|
| |
The Lunigiana is the region to the extreme north of Tuscany, situated between Liguria and Emilia Romagna along the course of the river Magra and its affluents, but historically its borders are much wider. Characterised from beautiful hills, immense green meadows and high mountains, it is encircled by the Apennines and the Apuan Alps. It is a small region that offers a mild climate and a clear atmosphere, perfect for walking, relaxation and holidays. It is a magical unspoilt area free from tourist crowds. Tuscany's best kept secret, a landscape lost in time where medieval castles and villages perch high above green wooded valleys of chestnut, pine, olive and beech trees and numerous grape vines. |

Details on the area surrounding the property/accommodation |
|
| |
Garfagnana is set in a wide valley, surrounded by the mountains of the Apennines, and the Apuan Alps. The area is totally un spoilt, and remains untouched by the tourism evident in other, perhaps better known, parts of Tuscany. The pace of life is very slow, and there are hundreds of hill top villages to explore, where it appears time has stood still since the days when most of the locals worked on the land. Try Barga, known for its restaurants and the beautiful ancient walled town of Lucca, the birthplace of Puccini. Florence is also accessible, as are Pisa, Siena or an hours drive down the autostrada to Parma and Modena. The coastal resorts of Forte dei Marmi, Viareggio, and Monterosso, set in the beautiful Cinque Terre are all accessible both by rail and car approximately 1 ½ hours away. There is a small shop for essentials, 5 mins walk into the village. For main shopping Aulla is a 30 minutes drive, also access to the autostrada. |
