New Year's Eve

I was house hunting in Lunigiana this year immediately after the New Year and it was extremely quiet.  I was surprised that the town centre 4* hotel we stayed in for 2 nights had no other guests!  I have been told that some of the family run restaurants put on a meal for the locals and that you would probably be made very welcome to share the festive set menu.  Rarely can you find anything advertised on the internet, so probably it is a good idea to enquire around as soon as you arrive.
