CASA BURRONE

Description:
This property is situated in an ancient hamlet named "La Rocca" and dates back to the 11th century; it was a former base for pilgrims and Templar Knights on their journey to the "Terra Santa" (Holy Land).

The owner recently bought what was once a ruin at the borders of the hamlet and restored it in total respect of the original structure, using antique materials, hand-made cotto floors and beamed ceilings. The interiors have been furnished very comfortably and with all modern amenities, including a relaxing room with Jacuzzi. The particular 'knight theme' furniture of the dining room, with original metal armors and decorations, reflects the owner's passion for the Templars' history, adding a special atmosphere to the interiors.

The property boasts beautiful views on the landscapes of Garfagnana, a very attractive and still unspoilt region north of Lucca. This is an ideal getaway for those fond of hiking and love exploring pretty villages and Roman churches.

The swimming pool (3,5 x 10 m) has been placed on the most panoramic point on the estate, granting stunning views.
