A few steps away from the hotel there is the river natural park with its cycling path which can be enjoyed on foot or on horseback too.

RESTAURANT
The “Cantina di Carignano” was an old "mail station" where horses and carriages stopped during their journeys along the dusty roads between tuscan towns.
For 4 generations, the same family has managed this restaurant and proposes typical dishes from the Lucca tradition such as the "Farro soup", home-made "Lucca ravioli", locally grown olives, "lardo di Colonnata", the famous "fiorentina" beefsteak cooked over charcoal and the traditional Lucca vegetables pies "con i becchi" which are some of the specialities.
In the summer it is possible to dine on the terrace by candlelight.
