About this villa rental

Ideal for larger families or groups of friends wishing to holiday together whilst still enjoying some personal space, this property is arranged across two neighbouring houses which are let together exclusively to one group.

Situated at the edge of a tiny historic hamlet with no facilities, the accommodation can sleep up to 14 guests in total and comprises:

A traditional 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom rustic cottage
A separate renovated house divided into two self-contained modern apartments:
One 2-bedroom apartment
One 1-bedroom apartment

Each unit has its own living and kitchen facilities, allowing smaller families or couples within the group to enjoy independence, whilst still sharing outdoor areas and dining spaces.

The two houses are positioned close together and share the outdoor facilities. A very small rural path runs between the buildings, occasionally used by locals on foot, although vehicle access is extremely rare.

Guests have exclusive use of:
Private swimming pool with beautiful views
Two covered outdoor dining loggias
Hot tub
Wood-fired pizza/bread oven
BBQ and 'outdoor kitchen' areas
Table tennis
Garden and field (uneven) for children to play
Parking
WiFi

There are several outdoor dining areas, including a fully equipped kitchen beneath the cottage loggia, enabling the whole group to cook and eat together with ease.

Sleeping & Layout:
Cottage: 4 bedrooms / 2 bathrooms (sleeps 7 + 1)
Apartment 1: 2 bedrooms / 1 bathroom (sleeps 4)
Apartment 2: 1 bedroom / 1 bathroom (sleeps 2–3)

Total capacity: up to 14 guests

A little about the area:
Situated in beautiful surroundings within the Garfagnana area of Tuscany, the property is ideal for guests wishing to relax or explore the many walking routes and footpaths throughout the surrounding mountains.
The local market town of Castelnuovo di Garfagnana is just over a 5-minute drive away and offers a good selection of shops, bars, restaurants and a weekly market. The popular medieval town of Barga can be reached in approximately 20 minutes, whilst the historic walled city of Lucca is around 1 hour away. Pisa, with its famous leaning tower, is approximately 1 hour 15 minutes by car, and Florence can be visited in around 2 hours.
The famous Wind Caves are around a 40-minute drive away, as is a local adventure park offering activities such as river canyoning. Nearby lakes include Gramolazzo where you can swim, and Vagli — with its submerged village and famous zipwire.
The Fortress at Verrucole is a popular local attraction with stunning views and interactive activities for children. Also close by is the Buffardello tree climbing and zip wire park, suitable for both adults and children, where you can take a picnic and spend the day in the shade of the forest.

The real beauty of this area lies in its dramatic mountain scenery, peaceful atmosphere and the opportunity to experience a non-touristy part of Tuscany, with numerous small historic villages hosting local festas during the summer months.

The property is up in the hills with views down onto Castelnuovo. The village is quiet and quaint, and the property is right at the end, keep going when you get there, there’s a few twists and turns before you arrive. The pool area is beautiful and well maintained, plenty of sun beds and chairs to relax on. To the side of the property is parking for a few cars and a BBQ area, get there to catch the last bits of sun. The property itself is of a good size, consisting of a single room downstairs, handy for the less able, upstairs a further three rooms. Two with king size beds and a room with bunk beds. Bedding is supplied. Two shower rooms again one up and one down. The living room is comfortable with a large TV, we didn’t use this room much at all. Kitchen is well equipped and found it had plenty of staple items left over from previous guests. Alessandro who owns the property lives nearby and visited us twice, his English is limited but we got by with some clever google translate. A true gent and a pleasure to speak to, we found him very helpful and nothing was too much for him. The local area is beautiful, we didn’t see too much as the kids enjoyed the pool too much and so did we. Castelnuovo has a Conad Supermarket, very well stocked and had everything we needed. Go to Gallicano for a larger Conad and diesel is so much cheaper here, up to 20c per litre. Barga is well worth a visit, make sure you make the trip up to the Duomo Di S. Cristoforo, For some amazing views. We visited the end of August 2019. Thank you for a lovely stay and we would highly recommend booking.

The perfect dream in Tuscany!

Rustic countryside dream! We loved everything about this house. It feels genuine and the small village is really charming. Castelnouvo di Garfagnana is only 10 minutes away and is one of the best villages we have visited in Italy. The house is perfect for a big family and the pool is great. The view is amazining! We would recommend this place to everyone who want to have a perfect countryside vacation in Tuscany!

Authentic Italian house in stunning setting

The most outstanding thing about this property has to be the amazing expansive view over Garfagnana, and the beautiful area that surrounds it. The pool was clean and well maintained, overlooking a productive plot, that twinkled with fireflies at night. The house was authentic, and spacious, we especially loved the ancient door and key! The tiny village with its church's s bell tower was quiet and interesting to look around, though there is little there. Allesandro was welcoming and helpful, providing us with extra towels for the pool when requested, allowing us to stay an extra few hours on the day we left, and giving us homemade wine and cherries from the trees. Off the beaten track, yet close to Castlenouvo di Garfagnana for restaurants and shops , a beautiful town. Highly recommended

Cosy house with perfect views!

We were staying two families. The house is very cosy, it was enough space for our group of 6 persons. We could find everything we needed in villa. Amazing views to the mountains. Nice small Tuscan village with very friendly community. We had an intensive program of travelling by car, so it was extremely nice to enjoy evening swim in a big pool. Our host Alessandro was very attentive (thank you very much for help with our dinner in restaurant in Castelnuovo). We also were suggested a large plate of fresh figs and vegetables from the garden. Would recommend this property for people who would like to enjoy calm stay as well as those who would like to have a comfortable base for visiting Northern Tuscany. We travel a lot, and with our friends nominated this place as one of our best we have stayed in summer.

Nice stone villa with ample space for our large family (6 people). Great view of the surrounding hills and mountains, and a nice pool. The village is quite small, which means you have to drive a few km to shop, but on the other hand it's very quiet and peaceful.
