Il Castello
 
We called it Il Castello (the Castle), because of its peculiar narrow structure which reminds of a towerhouse. It is said that it was an ail of the adiacent building, which was, according to the recollections of my grannie, a nunnery. Nowadays, it is a little nice cottage, which comprises three levels linked by a steep woodden stair. It is about 40 sm, can accomodate up to 3 people and is entirely open plan with the exception of the shower room. On the ground floor there is a living room with fireplace, kitchenette and sat-tv. On the first floor a bath with shower and a room with a single bed. On the second floor a lovely bedroom with double bed. Outside a little exclusive yard for your sunny afternoons equipped with garden furniture and just in front of the house entrance a spacious garden (1000 sm).

Things To Do
Bagni di Lucca (at 5 km from our village), is a nice tourist resort, where you will find general stores, shops and sport centers (public swimming pool, tennis courts, chemist, supermarkets, etc.) and a beautiful spa, beloved destination of artists like Byron, Shelley, Puccini, Metternich and Radestsky. Traces of this glorious past are to be found in its monuments: the English Church, the Catene bridge, the Spa, the villas, the Casino, etc. The Casino was the first gambling house to be opened in Europe. It was closed in the 19th century, but during the last years it has been perfectly restored and reopened as a wonderful location for parties and wedding receptions. The town has a couple of good trattorias, where you can taste our traditional cuisine based on simple ingredients like mushrooms, chestnuts, sausages, stakes etc. Enjoy beautiful walks, bicycle or horse rides on the hills around our property, full of churches and Roman parishes: S.Pietro in Corsena, Pieve and San Cassiano di Controne, Montefegatesi, Casabasciana and Vicopancellorum. Nearby, Borgo a Mozzano and the Maddalena bridge, better known as the Devil’s bridge, the little canyon Orrido di Botri, the Garfagnana villages, Barga with its typical historical centre, Coreglia Antelminelli and its Museum of Plaster Figures and Emigration are just a few of the places worth a visit. Lucca (25 km), Pisa (50km) and the close Tyrrhenian coast, (or Versilia-Viareggio beaches, 40km) offer further opportunities for food, culture and activity! Daily bus service from Guzzano (our village) to Lucca (about 30 min. drive).
