About this cottage rental
Casa Metato is a charming stone cottage that was refurbished a few years ago, using traditional methods and local natural materials. Inside, beamed ceilings and an fireplace create a warm, rustic atmosphere with modern comfort.
The house is set in an elevated position 2 km from the historic medieval village of Castiglione di Garfagnana, offering spectacular views of the Garfagnana valley and the iconic "Uomo Morto" mountain.
Accessed via a narrow country lane, the property features a private gated entrance, around 1,500 square meters of beautifully maintained garden, and a range of outdoor amenities including a BBQ, firepit, pizza oven, hammock, a jacuzzi and a private pool (6.5 x 3.5 m) surrounded by terracotta paving.
Inside, the ground floor includes a fully equipped kitchen, bathroom, and utility room. Upstairs, there is a double bedroom and a second bedroom with bunk beds. Spacious porches on both sides of the house provide perfect spots for relaxing and enjoying the scenery.

We very much enjoyed our stay in Garfagnana. The home, while small, is very private, well designed and built, and is well appointed. The pool and deck are wonderful. The hosts, Gabriele and his father, are great guys and were attentive to our needs. We would definitely go back.

Our stay was fantastic. Everything was perfect. The welcome was warm and the landlords very friendly, uncomplicated and helpful. The property is beautiful and leaves nothing to be desired, even if the interior is small and, in our opinion, not really suitable for four adults. But who wants to sit indoors in Tuscany? The outdoor area is very comfortable and well equipped and we had a very good rest. However, a vehicle is necessary. And yes, you can hear the road, but it didn't bother us. We would gladly stay again.

The small house is in a secluded spot with fantastic views of Castiglione and the mountains, both from the terrace as well as the bedroom. The outdoor pool and jacuzzi were a really nice addition. The owners welcomed us with traditional food and wine, which was very unexpected but very welcome when we arrived in the late afternoon. They also provided us with a lot of recommendations regarding both restaurants and fun things to do in the area. We highly recommend the house and plan to be back.
