Passing through Valdicastello Carducci and crossing a small bridge, a hundred meters down our small country road, the Piovane valley of Valdicastello opens up; and surrounded by ancient olive and chestnut groves you have arrived at ALMORA.Almora has a long history of several centuries, included in Italy's first land registry of 1791, it was lived in until the early 1970's in it's original state, without electricity or running water. Restored in 2009 by sculptor Kyleann Smith and restauranteer Dado Bigoni utilizing eco-compatible materials for both the building and the furnishings to maintain the original charming rustic Tuscan atmosphere. You'll enjoy the spacious rooms with wood beams and terracotta floors, beautiful bathrooms, eco-design beds with 100% organic cotton sheets and linens, relaxing atmosphere and abondant breakfasts of home made bread and cakes made daily with all natural local organic products. By bus or car, within five minutes you are in Pietrasanta, international center of art and artists, drawn by its marble studios, bronze foundries and the skill of the local artisans... and a moment later you are at the seaside or in the beautiful Apuan Alps.
