Beautifully Restored Barn, fantastic views, peaceful, WIFI, close facilties

A beautiful newly and very carefully restored barn, set in the heart of the Garfagnana region of Northern Tuscany, 1 hr 15 minutes north of Lucca.

This detached villa with private pool has been lovingly refurbished by the owner using traditional materials, and warm tuscan colours to give a rustic, but very homely feel to the property.

The 'barn' has beamed ceilings and traditional style flooring throughout and is furnished with a pleasing mix of the modern and antique. The ceilings are high, giving a good sense of light and space, and the views from the house are beautiful......

As well as the open plan well equipped kitchen, diner, living area, there are 4 bedrooms, and 3 bathrooms, one of which is ensuite, and one of which boasts a bath tub.
The ground floor bedroom and en-suite can be accessed from double doors and is wheelchair friendly, with large doors through to wheelchair friendly bathroom. There are no steps on the path leading down to the pool...
Outside there is a covered pergola, gardens with apple trees and private infinity style pool of 10M x 5M.

This is a perfect place to relax, and enjoy a real feeling of yesteryear, whilst surrounded by modern comforts.

October - April Pool is closed off. Additional E100 fee for Pool to be open.

Great place to celebrate anniversary

We decided to celebrate our 50 th wedding anniversary with family and could not have picked a better place. Both young and older enjoyed the pool and local restaurant and shopping were fabulous. The owner was most helpful and friendly. We would return again.

Beautiful location and house, generous people

The villa is in a secluded spot, with great views over a valley. The house was spotless, well-equipped, and very cozy. The owner welcomed us and was very helpful throughout our stay -- without being intrusive. We also appreciated the carefully prepared information about local shops, restaurants, etc. Overall, a great experience.

Fantastic place

We had a fantastic stay in La Vinca for 14 days. We were 2 families med children (age 4, 7, 8 and 11), and we really enjoyed the house and pool. The pool has a deept of 1,40 all over. The friendly owner Ilario welcomed us at the house, when we arrived. And after a few days he came with a basket of fresh vegetables, very nice :-) Right next to this house, the owner has another house, where 2 other families stayed (friends of us).

Absolutely stunning property and views. Spectacular holiday

The owner was very friendly and kind offering us vegetables from his garden. We used herbs from the villa garden for our evening bbq. The surrounding area was beautiful and we were very lucky to have woken up to this beautiful view for a week. The pool was an added bonus In the warm weather. There was so much to do and see including the caves which was absolutely fantastic. Great for adults and kids. The beach at Forte Dei Marmi was lovely and the sea was warm. The market was fab too. The local people were so friendly and happy to see us it was lovely meetingbso many new people. Lorraine was extremely helpful which made the booking run smoothly. I will definitely recommend Lorraine’s services and the villa to my friends

Stunnig views in Garfagnana

Vinca is probably the most beautiful and well appointed vacation property we have rented so far. The pictures on the website dont give any justice to the real beauty of the setting. The house has beautifull and well manicured gardens ,infinity pool and the views are simply spectacular. Swimming with the views of the Garfagnana valley is what enchanted us the most. The property is very clean and well outfitted with everything you might need and exceeds expectations. For anybody that loves cooking, this house comes with a very well equipped kitchen. Spacious house, tastefully decorated, beautiful covered outdoor patio, built-in stone barbeque, beautifull garden, infinity pool, stunning views are among the feautures we liked the most about this house. The property is ideally located in the Gardagnana region for day trips to Lucca by train for example or to the coast line in Massa Marittima. Also well located to shorter visits to local winery, (few km away) castles , and marble quarry (15 km away) which we highly reccomend. Our host, Ilario, is genuinily kind and available for whatever you might need and the best reference for any piece information you might have on the area. The basket of organic vegetables he offered us, freshly picked from his garden was a true deligt. We defenetly reccomend this vacation rental and wish to be able to visit again.

A dream come true!

We were a group of 8 family members and we all amazed with how beautiful & peaceful La Vinca is. We saw the photos online but experiencing it in person was just amazing. The house is beautifully maintained and is equipped with everything you need. The property; surrounding fruit trees, gardens and pool are also well maintained and manicured. It's always been a dream to stay in a Tuscan farm house and be immersed in the beauty of it all, and La Vinca did not disappoint - in fact it exceeded our expectations. It is exactly out of a story book or film. The owner, Ilario, is very friendly and came round on our first day to introduce himself. He came round a few days later to see if everything was still ok but otherwise we had the privacy to enjoy his property without interruption. We have family who live in Lucca who came to visit us for the day during our stay at La Vinca, and they were absolutely amazed with this property. Ilario and his wife have done a stellar job! If you love dogs, there are 2 very friendly dogs that come to visit every evening from one of the surrounding farms. They love playing catch :) Some of our most memorable experiences from our trip to Tuscany were spent drinking our morning coffee on the patio at La Vinca over looking the valley, and enjoying delicious Italian wines and foods in the evening in the same spot. It truly was a dream come true and highly recommend this property. There are also beautiful towns within driving distance; the Saturday market in Barga is a must for fresh local foods. And Castelnuovo is a great little town to explore, eat, drink wine & do a spot of shopping. Tip: make sure to stop at one of the bigger grocery stores on your way to La Vinca to stock up on food, tea, coffee, laundry detergent, wine, prosecco etc. because once you get to La Vinca you won't want to leave! :)

entspannter Familienurlaub

Die letzten Meter der Zufahrt zum Haus sind ein Kies-/Feldweg und dementsprechend sollte man mit normalen (Mittelklasse) Wagen etwas auf seinen Unterbodenschutz achten. Mit unserem VW Tiguan war es kein Problem. Check-in und Check-out war sehr unkompliziert mit Ilario. Das Haus war sauber und uns hat an Ausstattung für Frühstück und Grillabende nix gefehlt. Das Bad im unteren Teil des Hauses ist mehr oder weniger behindertengerecht, jedoch flutet man aufgrund der fehlenden Duschkabine gerne das halbe Zimmer. Wir waren ein wenig am Zweifeln, ob die fehlende Klimaanlage zum Problem wird aber Lorraine & Co hatten Recht. Es kühlt abends bzw. in der Nacht wunderbar ab, man kann herrlich (mit offenem Fenster und ggf. einer der vorhandenen Wolldecken) schlafen. Das ist aber leider auch der Grund warum der Pool trotz durchgängig heißen Wochen nur 22 °C hatte und dementsprechend sehr frisch ist. Eine Abdeckung für die Nacht wäre das Nonplusultra :)

Super schönes Anwesen, gepflegter Garten und gut ausgestattetes Haus.

Wir waren mit der gesamten Familie dort. Die Zimmer und das Haus sind liebevoll eingerichtet, die drei Badezimmer sehr sinnvoll und Küche ist sehr gut ausgestattet. Der Vermieter ist sehr nett und hilfsbereit. Ein Grill im Garten beschert wunderbare Abende. Kleine Bemerkung : Das Haus liegt herrlich im Wald etwas abgeschieden von der kleinen Ortschaft. Die Strecke zum Supermarkt ist schon eine kleine Herausforderung für Magen und Auto (viele enge Kurven im Wald und enge Dörfer). Aber der Ausblick entschädigt für alles. Wir kommen sehr gerne wieder.

Lovely house and surroundings

This is Toscana but something different compared to the Siena-Volterra-San Gimignano area. The mountains are higher, it is greener and temperatures in summer are lower. This makes good potential for your holiday. The house is nice, well taken care of and has a lovely garden and pool area. No A/C but low night temperatures makes it unnecessary. The owner, Ilario, is a lovely man that takes care of guests, garden and all other things concerning the house. He even brought us a basket of his own vegetables from the nearby garden. Perfect! It is possible to visit Lucca and Firenze over the day but it will take you some time. Check google maps for travelling times. In every aspect a perfect spot for your holiday.

Traumhafte Unterkunft

Wir hatten traumhafte 14 Tage im Spätsommer 2018. Die Anlage ist sehr gepflegt, das Haus und die Küche sind sehr gut ausgestattet. Der Pool ist groß und sauber. Der Hausherr ist sehr freundlich und aufmerksam. Man sollte bedenken, dass es zu den größeren Ausflugszielen (Pisa, Modena, 5 Terre, Lucca etc) eine abenteuerliche Fahrerei durch die Berge ist ist. Wir hatten damit aber keine Probleme. Einkaufmöglichkeiten gibt es gute in Castelnuovo di Garfagnana (ca. 15min). Ein Bahnhof ist direkt im Dorf, den hatten wir aber aufgrund der Zugpreise nicht in betracht gezogen.
