    Review B&B Castagni d'Oro, Bagni di Lucca,

    Photo Album

    This is the fantastic view over the Val di Lima that greets our guests every morning from one of the well-equipped guest rooms at Castagni d'Oro B&B in Bagni di Lucca. There are dramatic mountain views and spectacular valleys right round the village. Castagni d'Oro bed and breakfast is a cheaper alternative to expensive resort accommodation when skiing at Abetone ski resort, only a 45 minute drive away from our guesthouse in Bagni di Lucca.
    Castagni d'Oro, a new B&B in Brandeglio near Lucca offers two spacious, comfortable bedrooms that have new en-suite bathrooms, real British TV and coffee / tea making facilities. Firm mattresses and quality linen mean a good night's sleep.Castagni d'Oro Bed and Breakfast in Bagni di Lucca in Garfagnana National Park, Tuscany. A beautiful old 17th century house, only an hour from beaches and from skiing at Abetone resort.
    In addition to tea, coffee and LCD TVs in the bedrooms, guests can also use the sitting room at Castagni d'Oro B&B. There is a wide-screen TV with true British channels and a log fire that is lit all winter, warm and cosy after skiing at Abetone, Tuscany's premier ski resort. The front of Castagni d'Oro B&B in the pretty hilltop village of Brandeglio, high above Bagni di Lucca in the Garfagnana region on Northern Tuscany. At over 350 years old, the house has seen 9 generations living here in this peaceful area.
    Just one of the fantastic views from Castagni d'Oro Bed and Breakfast in the Garfagnana National Park, in Northern Tuscany. Bagni di Lucca sits in the valley below while the Apuane Alps, known as the Marble Mountains, tower in the distance.The sunny terrace at Castagni d'Oro Bed and Breakfast in a pretty hill-top village above Bagni di Lucca is the perfect place to enjoy a cooling drink on a hot summer's day. There are also swimming pools in Bagni di Lucca for when you really need to cool off.
