A little about the area:
Situated in 16 hectares of land, with wonderful views at every turn, this property is a perfect rural retreat, yet it is less than a 10 minute drive from the Mediaeval town of Barga. Barga is a sought after place to stay, with its hilly windy cobbled streets, duomo, 10th Century cathedral ancient architecture and wonderful views. Renowned for its art, good quality, but reasonably priced restaurants and music, it is a fantastic place to be in the summer. There are often al fresco concerts; outdoor plays; festas with dancing; night time markets. Known as the most Scottish town in Italy there is also a famous fish and chip festival.
Closer to home, and within walking distance is the village of Albiano with its restaurant (not open every day), and also the village bar at the local pool. You can also walk up to the village to collect bread from the bread van which arrives each morning with bread and pastries (9:30 am, and no delivery Sundays).
Places to visit:
Castelnuovo - local market town - less than 15 mins
Lucca - beautiful fully walled mediaeval city, the birthplace of Puccini - 45 mins
Verrucole - 30 mins - local fortress with stunning views and interactive tour/museum good for children
Adventure park Levegliese - 25 mins - rock climbing, river canyoning, canoeing and some zip wires.
