This majestic 17th-century structure, located in the heart of Lunigiana, stands where the independent fief of Malaspina once dominated. Once a noble residence and subsequently a training institution, the building has undergone skilled restoration that has preserved its imposing military soul, transforming it today into a high-prestige resort where the charm of history meets the most refined contemporary luxury.
Developed on a surface area of 2,000 sq m, the castle houses 14 sumptuous bedrooms and 18 bathrooms, offering rooms of rare elegance.
The architectural heart is represented by a striking central cloister that floods the lower floors with natural light. On the ground floor, there is a high-end restaurant with seating for 120, an elegant bar area, and a monumental reception. Communal areas include spacious rooms for banquets, conferences, and dances. A state-of-the-art wellness area completes the internal offerings, featuring a sauna, an emotional shower, and massage rooms, all designed to ensure an experience of absolute relaxation within an unparalleled historic setting.
The property covers 1500 sq m of expertly manicured open spaces. A splendid covered terrace offers a privileged panoramic view towards the Tuscan-Emilian Apennine profile, while the restaurant's outdoor seating area can accommodate 32 guests in a convivial and refined atmosphere. The estate's boundary is caressed by a placid stream which, with its silent flow, lends a magnetic charm and natural coolness during the summer months. Convenient outdoor parking spaces ensure perfect logistical functionality for guests of the establishment.
The excellence of the property is defined by the three areas dedicated to the SPA, which represent a fundamental complement to the guests' well-being. The versatility of the spaces allows for hosting high-profile events, from international galas to more intimate private ceremonies. The conservative restoration has successfully integrated state-of-the-art technological systems and modern comforts without altering the aesthetics of the seventeenth-century walls, creating a perfect balance between past and future.
Located in the medieval village of Pontebosio, in Tuscany, the castle enjoys a strategic position between the peaks of the Apennines and the Tyrrhenian coast. The area, rich in history and Malaspina castles, offers rejuvenating isolation immersed in pristine nature and unique landscape vistas.
Pontebosio is a village of yesteryear nestled in the heart of Lunigiana, on the border between Tuscany and Liguria. An ancient independent fief, the locality is immersed in a riverside landscape of rare beauty, kissed by crystal-clear waters and surrounded by the peaks of the Tuscan-Emilian Apennines.
Strategically located a short distance from the Via Francigena, the village offers a refuge of absolute tranquility, while allowing quick access to the exclusive coasts of Versilia and Cinque Terre. It is the ideal destination for those seeking a perfect blend of unspoiled nature, noble history, and authentic gastronomic traditions.
