La Casa del Cucchin, a stone house in the heart of Garfagnana.

In the upper Garfagnana region, in a medieval village founded by the Malaspina family, stands the Antico Fabbricato del Cucchin, built with blocks of local stone and restored in keeping with tradition yet equipped with all the amenities needed for a pleasant stay.
The village’s narrow streets are dotted with works of art by a local artist, and legend has it that the Pellegrinetta—a powerful and evil witch—roams the village.
Nicciano is just a short walk from Piazza al Serchio, where you’ll find all the amenities, restaurants, banks, the train station, attractions, swimming pools, and everything you need for a vacation focused on wellness, health, and the rugged beauty of the Garfagnana.
Heading down into the valley, just a few minutes away, lies Lake Gramolazzo, a natural wonder set in a fairy-tale landscape. The lake is suitable for swimming and water sports.
A 10-minute drive takes you to Castelnuovo di Garfagnana, the true “capital” of Garfagnana—a town brimming with attractions, boasting a rich culinary tradition, with hotels, restaurants, and bars on every corner, as well as the opportunity to organize excursions, guided tours with specialized organizations, nature experiences, and a myriad of other opportunities, points of interest, and wonderful locations. The nightlife in Castelnuovo di Garfagnana attracts people from all over the area and is bustling.
