This is a remote place to stay, small, quiet, old and charming. It’s really only suitable for a couple maybe with children. The owner was there to meet us. He was thorough in acquainting us with the place and its amenities. We loved it. A real step back in time.

It was a real unusual property, a rustic village house. There is a little known castle ruin a short walk up the hill. Loved the washing machine, fire, cat and the helpful owner. It is hard to find, park at the town crossroads and walk up and right. But the locals will point you to it.

The most beautiful setting, a most beautiful medieval home. We fell in love with everything there down to the very friendly cat who visited regularly. Many hiking trails and hidden places to explore. We have been traveling Europe for a month and this is by far the place I will remember most warmly. Thank you to our gracious host!

This is a very characteristic and charming house. You can feel the effort, love and dedication the owner put in it. The owner is very friendly, and so are the people in this tiny medieval village.The view from the terrace is breathtaking. It is a quite remote place, excellent for those who like silence and nature.

This property is a one of a kind. A magical step back in time. The kitchen is the main seating area, no living room, no tv, small patio, comfortable king size bed, uncomfortable single beds. Perfectly peaceful with amazing views. You could easily have a silence retreat there. It is imperative that you make a specific arrangement with the owner to meet you there. There is no phone or internet reception at the top of the mountain and the owner does not speak English. Messages through the HomeAway website that Expedia connects you to is the best way to communicate, but any change of plan is difficult. Road to the top is steep and windy, about 25 minutes from the base, roughly 9 minutes past Fosdinovo castle. You park in a small lot out front with room for roughly a dozen cars, then walk up a slight incline and down to the right into a series of renovated "units". It's #24. If possible, would recommend the owner leave the unit unlock and keys on the table. There is no crime in the area! We loved it and loved Fosdinovo. A special experience.

Living in a castle
It is a very special cozy house with 2 storeys and an open fireplace in the kitchen. Great wood furniture. You feel like in a castle. Only problem for my dog- there is a kind of ladder to the storey with the bedroom. Not good for it. Otherwise great big bed! Nice little terrace. Everything there in the kitchen that you need . Very friendly host! Brought firewood and chestnuts, lit the fire for us, roasted the chestnuts. We had nice conversations. Great! Only disadvantage: there is nothing in the village, no shop no restaurant. You have to drive for everything quite a bit. But if you are looking for peace and quietness, it's the ideal place:)))
