An Insider's Take
'Nestled in the Apuan Alps, this Renaissance retreat sits on a 2,800-hectare estate where wild boar roam free and ancient chestnut forests whisper centuries-old secrets.' What's Special? The resort occupies a former medieval hunting lodge and features its own private funicular railway that transports guests through the mountainous terrain. The property is completely carbon-neutral and generates its own hydroelectric power from mountain streams. The on-site restaurant sources ingredients exclusively from the estate's organic gardens and nearby villages within a 10-mile radius.
WhatAHotel! Pro-Tip: Book the "Forager's Experience" where the chef personally guides you through the estate to collect wild mushrooms, herbs, and chestnuts that will be prepared for your dinner that evening.
Don't Miss The resort's private observatory offers some of Europe's clearest stargazing due to minimal light pollution, and the medieval village of Barga (just 15 minutes away) hosts an annual opera festival in its 1,000-year-old cathedral. The nearby Grotta del Vento caves feature underground rivers and can be explored via guided spelunking tours.
