Vacation Rental Description
With 3 bedrooms and spectacular mountain views from the garden and surrounding meadow, this newly renovated, atmospheric old house is suitable for a large family or group of friends.  
 
The house, which itself accommodates 7 people, has a large garden which contains a Metato, a converted barn which has accommodation for another 3 people. This is only rented with the farmhouse in the event of a group requiring more accommodation. 
 
There is a fine pool in the garden, with ample decking, and a patio for outdoor dining. The pool has a special dark lining, chosen by the owner to complement the natural environment. The pool is therefore a few degrees warmer than traditional pools.The garden and surrounds are safe for children to play in and explore. 
 
The house is well equipped and comfortably furnished, with traditional chestnut beamed ceilings and tiled floors. Upstairs the house has a double and two twin bedrooms, stone stairs and a large lounge with chestnut flooring, There are 2 bathrooms upstairs, and a bathroom downstairs. 
 
Downstairs there is a large modern fully equipped kitchen with dining room, and a large living room with stone fireplace.The house is furnished with country style antiques throughout. 
 
The garden is large with wooded, shaded areas, and many areas for children to explore,or to achieve privacy. 
 
For environmental reasons the swimming pool has a black liner. This ensures that the pool is several degrees warmer than most swimming pools. There is comfortable natural wood decking, and ample sunloungers. 
 
The atmospheric and romantic converted barn has a lounge/kitchen with all facilities, a mezzanine double bedroom and bathroom. It is around 50 metres from the farmhouse, but has its own privacy. The cost is an extra £50 per day, or £300 per week all inclusive. The barn can only be rented with the farmhouse ensuring private use of the pool and garden when only the farmhouse is being rented.

  • Tuscany is the most popular region of Italy, famous for its wonderful climate, landscape, and art treasures. 
    The famous "art" cities of Florence, Sienna and Lucca are huge attractions, whilst the culinary tradition is there to be savoured. 
     
    the Garfagnana is arguably the most scenic area of Tuscany, and is indisputably the best for walking. There are many Outdoor Activities on offer, and we give useful local info and recommendations. 
     
    The area is well known for its excellent value cooking, using the best of local ingredients. A typical set lunch with 4 choices of pasta course, and 4 choices of main course costs only 9-10 euros inclusive of bread, wine and coffee. An evening main course typically costs 7-12 euros, with fine pizzas at only 5 euros.  
    It is possible to have a multi-course traditional Sunday lunch or dinner with ample wine, coffee and liquors for less than 25 euros.

    Owner Location Comment
    Garfagnana is the most scenically rewarding area of Tuscany. Between the dramatic marble mountains of the Apuane and the majestic hills of the Appenines this lush, verdant valley is by far the best area for walking in Tuscany.

    Our family had a fabulous holiday in this beautiful area. The villa was spacious and interesting and my daughter and her husband also hired the barn, which for them was very romantic. Of course it meant the kids were with us in the big house........Mr and Mrs Hopper, Shropshire, England.

    Great house, warm pool, fantastic views.....we really enjoyed our week and will return soon. Thanks for all the local info. It was really useful.......McDonald Family, Edinburgh.

    Owners Profile
    The most beautiful area in Tuscany

    We holidayed in the Garfagnana in 1988, and fell in love with this beautiful, unspoilt area, returning to live there in 1994. Now back in Scotland, we regularly visit our house there, where we have an interest in Outdoor Activities.
