Newly Restore Barn With Private Pool View Of hills, 4/5 bedrooms 5 bathrooms

Newly restored, stunning 4 bedroom, 5 bathroom property with private pool, situated deep in the Garfagnana, area famous for its walking, wildlife and fauna. This spacious stone barn has been restored to a very high standard, with all modern conveniences, such as a well equipped kitchen; beautiful shower rooms yet it retains some of the traditional features including chestnut beamed ceilings. The house whilst very traditional has large windows creating a sense of light and airiness not always found in older style properties and it also has the benefit of a large covered terrace on the first floor as well as a another open terrace both of which overlook the garden and pool. Location Situated on the hillside, only 2km from the local market town of Castelnuovo di Garfagnana with its bars, restaurants, shops and famous Thursday morning market. This property is also very convenient, situated less than a 5 minute drive from town with all facilities, and circa 500m from Bonini restaurant.

Superb Tuscan gem!
We had a fantastic family holiday and celebration in this perfect spacious and comfortable Tuscan villa. It was a treat from beginning to end: numerous bathrooms to provide privacy, beautiful swimming pool with a shady area and mountain views and a very well equipped kitchen for family meals. How we miss this beautiful terrace and all the happy moments spent there! We would love to come back. Loretta and her husband were great hosts, always at hand and very communicative. Loretta was very helpful before the holiday as we were trying to organise a special celebration. Thank you both! Your property is stunning and the location is ideal.

Quiet and peaceful with amazing pool!
This home was great, the open plan living works really well and we had meals on the terrace, inside and by the pool! The pool was just so much fun for the kids and adults alike and was clean and well maintained with no red sore eyes at the end of the day! House is cool with a mountain breeze taking the edge of the strong sun. It was also nice and cool at bedtime even when it had been 30 degrees above during the day! About 45 min drive from Lucca and Pisa but set in a quiet and sentence setting this is perfect for a nice relaxed getaway with the fun of the pool on hand day and night but day trips not too far away. The owners were fantastic, genuinely helpful and informative and gave us some great choices for beach locations! We got a little muddled with a toll road ticket and they rectified this at the local post office for us - so more then helpful and very kind couple. We would love to come back and are missing the pool already! Highly recommend.

Lovely escape to Italy even though weather poor
Very helpful owners - lovely property nestled in the Italian mountainside.. Facilities excellent - cooking utensils etc all well provided for.. Unfortunately our weather was not good at the beginning of our stay, however we got out and about to see some of the beautiful surrounding villages during this time. You would definitely need a car to stay here as nearest town / supermarket is not easily walkable for the average family .Would highly recommend for a relaxing escape. Thank you!

A lovely villa
A party of 8 ranging from 3 year old to 58 had a great 7 days in the villa, beautiful setting in a beautiful area of Italy. Lots of lovely little villages to explore. The owners were very helpful with lots of info before we went and when we arrived at the villa. Would recommend and will return. LOVED IT.

Beautiful location with added wildlife
We were a group of six ranging in age from 2 to 70 and found the property met all of our needs. The views are amazing and we found that we had daily visits from some of the nearby wild deer. Loretta and Benito had thought of everything and we found everything we required in the property. The swimming pool was essential particularly in the afternoons when we returned from trips to Lucca and Pisa. We would definitely recommend this property for a relaxing enjoyable Tuscan break.

Super converted barn with all the home comforts
We were 4 couples on holiday together with 3 cars between us. The house (and garden) was extremely comfortable and offered lots of space which meant we never felt overcrowded. It was well maintained by Loretta and Ben who were helpful hosts with good suggestions about places to visit when they popped in. The description was quite accurate and I'd certainly recommend this property. Excellent value too.

Schönes Haus, weite Wege
Wir waren im Mai für 10 Tage zu acht (4 Erwachsende, 2 Teenager und 2 Kinder) im Ferienhaus und die ersten Gäste in diesem Jahr. Die Lage ist toll, allerdings ist zu bedenken, dass für Ausflüge mehr Zeit einzuplanen ist und die die Straßen stellenweise sehr eng und kurvig sind. Ein Trip nach Pisa z.B. dauert knapp 1,5 Std. Leider war das Wetter für Ende Mai sehr wechselhaft und nicht ganz so warm. In den Schlafzimmern und Bädern im unteren Geschoss des Hauses war es daher bei Ankunft recht kalt (17-18 Grad) und feucht. Loretta und Benito haben uns die Heizung für 3 Tage angestellt, dann ging es etwas besser. Insgesamt ist das Haus toll hergerichtet und es ist alles da, was man braucht. Dass jedes der 4 Schlafzimmer ein eigenes Bad hat ist super. Leider waren wir während unseres Aufenthalts nicht die einzigen Gäste. Es gab jede Menge Ameisen, was draußen aufgrund der Lage mitten in der Natur vollkommen okay ist, wir hatten sie aber auch im Haus. Sowohl im Obergeschoss, als auch in den Schlafzimmern & Bädern und in einem Zimmer sogar in den Betten der Kinder. Der Pool ist toll und sauber, allerdings nichts für Frostbeulen. Wie bereits in einer vorherigen Bewertung erwähnt, hätte die Sauberkeit insgesamt etwas besser sein können. Alles in Allem ein tolles Haus, unser nächster Urlaub wird aber ein Rundum-Sorglos-All-Inclusive-Trip ;-)

Vakantie in Castelnuovo di garfagnana
Het was een prima vakantiewoning , ligt prachtig en een zeer aardige eigenaar. Minpuntje zijn de matrassen op de bedden. Die zijn gedateerd en moeten nodig vervangen worden. Verder een zeer goed verzorgde keuken, alles was aanwezig. Oven, magnetron, vaatwasser. Ook een wasmachine is aanwezig. En als laatste punt, de eigenaar was zeer behulpzaam bij het reserveren van een restaurant. ( ik ben het italiaans nog niet machtig. Google translate werkt voortreffelijk) de eigenaar spreekt engels.

Wunderschöne umgebaute Scheune in idyllischer Lage
Wir verbrachten mit Freunden (7 Pers. 75-80 J.) eine Woche in der Capanna Del Pastore. Loretta und Benito waren sehr hilfsbereit und sympathische Gastgeber, die sofort reagierten, als bei uns der Kühlschrank nicht richtig funktionierte. Innert kürzester Zeit wurde er durch einen tollen, neuen Kühlschrank ersetzt. Die Lage ist traumhaft schön und so ruhig, dass sogar ein Reh sich in die Nähe traute um zu äsen. Der Weg nach Castelnuovo war gut befahrbar und nur ca. 15 Min. mit dem Auto. In diesem Städtchen gibt es auch perfekte Einkaufsmöglichkeiten, aber wenig Parkplätze. Die Küche war bestens eingerichtet für Leute wie wir, die gerne kochen und gemeinsam essen wollen. Jedes Zimmer hatte seinen Charme, sodass wir uns wohl fühlten und herrlich schliefen. Es gab viele Orte im Garten, wo man Sonne tanken oder kühlen Schatten fand. Dass alle Zimmer ein eigenes WC/Dusche hatten, war ein grosser Luxus, den wir in unserem Alter sehr schätzten. Der Pool war wunderschön und sehr gross. Er wurde auch immer von den Gastgebern gepflegt und gereinigt. Leider war das Wasser für uns sehr frisch und nur die Mutigen trauten sich hinein. Aber im Hochsommer ist das sicher sehr erfrischend. Wir können das Ferienhaus allen Interessierten nur empfehlen. Sie werden wunderschöne Ferien ohne viele Touristen in in einer idyllischen Gegend der Toscana erleben!!!

Sehr schöner Urlaub und eine sehr freundliche Gastgeberin. Die Sauberkeit im Haus hätte ein wenig besser sein können. Der Pool dagegen war sehr sauber und wurde auch regelmäßig gereinigt. Im Ganzen gesehen, echt empfehlenswert.
