About this farm stay rental
Situated on a spur of the Apennines, this family owned farmhouse stands on 2 acres of tranquil olive grove and meadow, 2 km from the picturesque old walled town of Barga. The rooms are simple but comfortably furnished, with terracotta floors and chestnut beamed ceilings. There are two houses on the property; the farmhouse and a small converted barn (which can also be rented together or separately). Each house has a terrace shaded by a pergola and the views are spectacular in every direction.
Buvicchia is very quiet, a wonderful spot to get away from it all as our family has been doing for more than 50 years. Barga has all the shops needed for daily living and there are many good and inexpensive restaurants in Barga and the surrounding area. Barga is about a half-hour (rather picturesque) walk from the property. Lucca, a spectacular walled town, is 40 mins away, Florence an hour and a half, Pisa an hour and a quarter. The nearest railway station is Barga Gallicano, also known as Mologno, 7 km away. Trains run to Lucca and beyond or up into the high Garfagnana. The sea is just over an hour away also. A car is very desirable and car hire is available via the major companies at Pisa airport.
Built in 1740 as a small two-roomed farmhouse, Buvicchia 3 was added to over the following decades to include a large 'cantina' or winestore (now the sitting room) with bedrooms overhead. Right up to 1972 there were earth floors downstairs, no electricity and just one cold tap in the kitchen! The farmhouse has been restored twice since then, but the atmosphere has not changed. You can still imagine it as the home of a smallholder through two centuries.

The house is ideally situated for those who enjoy a quiet time away from the city. The walk to the town takes about 20 minutes and is lovely. It will only take you 5 minutes by car.The house itself has all the equipment and amenities you could wish you'd have. It is very spacious and makes you feel like you're at home.The host is always ready to help and really quick to answer any request you might have.The area is great as Barga has all the shops, restaurants and bars you'll need. The scenery around the place is breathtaking.We had a brilliant stay.

An unforgettable Tuscan escape! This charming farmhouse offers a truly authentic experience, steeped in history and full of character. Thoughtfully designed and exceptionally comfortable, it’s ideal for families—especially with a rare and practical feature: a bathroom on each floor. The spacious, lush garden was a paradise for our children, who spent hours playing outdoors.The host was outstanding—gracious, responsive, and attentive to every request. Her care and ease made our stay feel seamless and warmly welcomed.And the location? Simply breathtaking. Nestled in serene countryside with panoramic views on both sides of the ridge, yet just a short walk from a delightful town brimming with restaurants, shops, and cultural gems. It’s the perfect balance of tranquility and convenience.A true gem in every sense—we can’t wait to return.

Set out on a ridge with far reaching views across to the mountains but close enough to Barga to walk in for a late afternoon gelato.
