Immerse yourself in an authentic fairytale experience in this centuries-old castle, where history intertwines with the present. From its mighty walls, you can dominate the entire Garfagnana valley, just as the great poet Ludovico Ariosto described during his stay.
The castle's interiors have been meticulously restored to preserve their original historical charm, while offering all modern comforts. Each room tells a different story, with architectural details that bear witness to centuries of history.
The castle is surrounded by an enchanting garden where four majestic centuries-old cedars create a timeless atmosphere. The charming corners and natural terraces offer breathtaking views of the valley below.
The privileged location allows you to easily explore the Orecchiella Nature Reserve, perfect for hiking and wildlife watching. Don't miss the opportunity to visit the Verrucole Fortress and enjoy homemade ice cream at Lake Gramolazzo.
