 Castagni d'Oro B & B is a beautiful 17th century Tuscan villa in a hilltop village above the spa town of Bagni di Lucca, in the lush green hills near Lucca. This part of Tuscany, known as the Garfagnana, is famous for fast-flowing rivers rushing through dramatic gorges between steep tree-clad hillsides, rich in wildlife such as deer, wild boar, porcupines and eagles.
2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, 2 shower rooms 6 guests
€60 per night double room
Castagni d'Oro is a 350-year old stone house with thick stone walls, huge chestnut beams, terracotta floors and green shutters to keep the rooms cool when the summer heat is on. The house has never been ruined or restored and so appears much as it has throughout the centuries, apart from little modern additions such as double glazing, central heating and electricity!
