This English family-run Bed and Breakfast in Lucca Region is registered with most Tuscan Tourism Boards, VAT registered and issues VAT receipts.We are in BRANDEGLIO, a tiny Medieval hill-top village in the Val di Lima, in the famous Garfagnana region, nestling between the beaches and the skiing resorts, this less well known part of Tuscany displays more of the original Tuscan life from long before tourists invaded the central plains and beaches. The valleys are deep and dramatic, the hills are high with breathtaking views and the dense forests have deer, wild boar and porcupines.
 Brandeglio is a typical hilltop Tuscan village with spectacular views of the surrounding hills, villages and mountains and yet is only a 15 minute drive from the famous old spa town of Bagni di Lucca. The village dates back to Medieval times and has been awarded "Centro Storico" conservation area status, so no new building here!
A bar on the edge of the village serves delicious traditional Tuscan food and local wines and has the most spectacular views of the mountains and the valley below from its garden. There are many dances, meals and events throughout the year, particularly in August for the Ferragosto celebrations.
From Brandeglio, it's a very easy 30 km drive to the famous Medieval walled city of Lucca and only 45 km up to the ever-popular skiing resort of Abetone.
Within an hour, you could be photographed holding up the leaning tower in Pisa, or sun-bathing on the wide golden sandy beaches at Viareggio. Drive an hour and a half and you are in beautiful Renaissance Florence, with its culture, architecture and, of course, world famous shopping!
