Description

Located on the hilltop hamlet known as Olivola, once "feudo" of the Marquises Malaspina and seat of the medieval Castle, a hideaway in an area rich in history and tradition and set amidst magnificent scenery, with breathtaking views over the unspoilt Tuscan hills. Our holiday apartment, recently restored, thanks to its strategic position, gives a wonderful sight spreading on the valley, as if the present hanging garden, gained from a wing of the ancient castle, was the wharf of a ship ready for the launch in the Lunigiana valley!

Accommodation for 2 or 4 up to 6 people includes a spacious and bright apartment:

* Ground floor : living room where there is a new double-sofa bed and dining area (surface 30 m2), kitchen has an ancient marble sink, table and chairs (12 m2), bathroom with shower (5 m2), fire place room with wooden stairs lead to upper floor.

* First floor : main double bedroom (20 m2), second double bedroom (16 m2), bathroom with bath (6 m2), terrace (34 m2).

Upon request can be added a single bed for one child or third person in the main bedroom. The garden is equipped with table and chairs to relax with a good book or dining out.

To note: on the first floor, the second double bedroom, and its private bathroom, has its own independent entrance from the garden by the terrace.

Location
Situated in Lunigiana the relatively undiscovered northern Tuscany!
TO FIND AGAIN THE CULTURE AND THE RHYTHMS OF A LONG TIME AGO… Lunigiana - (pronounced Loonee-janna)- a magical place beginning with its name meaning - the "land of the moon" reserved and charming, shows to its visitors different sights, clear and full of light, but also mysterious and secret… To find out its inner meanings, you need to abandon yourself to its beauty and follow the ways to the woods where the Liguri-Apuani people built the famous manhirs as to guard the pastures, or the paths to the little villages all around, dominated by more than 100 castles and by their severe profiles. The Lunigiana derives its name from the port of Luni, established by the Romans at the mouth of the River Magra. So rich and splendidly adorned with marble was this port, that the Normans destroyed it, mistaking it for Rome. Today you can see the ruins of this once great trading place. Historic sites are not restricted to Roman remains, however,as the Lunigiana is scattered with castles built in medieval times by the Malaspina family. The village of Aulla was founded towards 884, when the Abbey of Saint Caprasio was built. Towards the end of XIII the century the territory passes under the jurisdiction of the Bishop of Luni, for being then disputed from Pisa, Lucca, Genova and the Malaspina family. Aulla is characterised by the Fortress of the Brunella, military construction of the XV century .
