The Manor is a beautiful, small medieval castle built between 1400's and 1500's. It was a fortress of guard for the the villages in the area. It was built of mellow stone and was a Ghibelline's manor. It is set in a wonderful and dominant position,and is only 700 metres from the village of Lanciole.
The history tell us that the Ghibellines, who sided with the holy roman Emperor, fought against the Guelphs who supported the Pope over the right to rule the nothern part of Italy. In the Manor Castle there are two independent wings/cottages the Fairy and the Elf. The Village where the Manor is located lies in the hills to the north of Pescia and Montecatini, a very picturesque area ideal for touring or relaxing in delightful surroundings. The Castle itself is perfectly restored, conserving the old characteristics but with all the comfort, so you will feel really "at home". Has been trasformed in villa during 1700's so he addes to the simple knights style in one more elegant countenance. In the park, at the top there is also another small cozy cottage, that was the knights quarter, called the Tale, rebuilt and restored during 2007 ideal for a couple or a small family, very romantic, please take a look to his link.
