Extra Information

Other information - The shop at Migliano is a walkable distance away; you can order fresh milk for Monday or Thursday and fresh bread daily from here. There is also a post office in Migliano. The train station at the bottom of the hill can be used to get to Lucca, Pisa and Florence. The property is accessible from a good road that is regularly gritted in winter and kept clear of foliage in summer. Castelnuovo in Garfagnana is only 10 minutes drive away (small supermarkets/clothes shops/English newspapers/weekly market/own theatre/large tourist information office etc ), and a good supermarket is only 20 minutes drive away. You can reach the beaches in about 1hr 15mins, or the ski slopes (with sledging) also in 1 hr 15 mins. Owing to the expense of the heating, in low season (or mid season if requested), a £500 heating deposit will be taken and the actual cost of heating used will be deducted.
