Enquire nowThe Tuscany / Lucca Province region
The Tuscan Region of Italy is well known for its warm balmy summers, beautiful countryside, rolling hills, mouth - watering food, and of course its towns and villages, rich with mediaeval architecture…
The Garfagnana region of Tuscany, often known as its ‘Green Lung’ is situated away from the milling crowds that can often be found at the most famous Tuscan locations and is totally unspoilt, remaining untouched by tourism.
The scenery is spectacular, green and mountainous with views of both the Apuane and Appenine mountains at every turn…And, due to the altitude whilst the weather can be very hot, it is always pleasantly cool for sleeping…
The food is usually home made, using home grown produce, and is typically simple and extremely tasty. Prices here remain very reasonable due to the fact that food is prepared with the locals, and not tourists in mind…The local wine is cheap and surprisingly drinkable!
The pace of life is slow and peaceful – spend your days enjoying secluded picnics, swimming in rivers, or watching locals play bocce or ‘cheese throwing’. Visit hundreds of ancient hill top villages, or relax at home basking in stunning scenery.
For ‘townie’ days, visit the mediaeval towns of Barga, Lucca, Castelnuovo, with Pisa and Florence within easy reach too…

Situated in an edge of village location, the property is within easy walking distance of a bar (which will provide basic snacks too) and little grocers shop. Beside the bar is the village. The property is only a few minutes drive from the Orecchiella National Park, ideal for walking and close to the fortress of Verrucole, with Orzaglia, the village where locals still do 'cheese rolling' at weekends within walking distance. There are plenty of hilltop villages, walking and picnicking opportunities in the immediate vicinity, but other distances are:
Market town of Castelnuovo 25 minutes
Mediaeval town of Barga 40 minutes
Lucca, 90 minutes
Pisa 120 minutes
Florence 2 hrs 25 minutes
