Hilltop Village Lovely House with Private Pool near Bagni di Lucca and Barga

The house lies at the border of Garfagnana above the valley of the river Fegana, one of the most beautiful valleys of the whole region, marked by an unspoilt landscape and spectacular views onto the mountains Apenine and Apuan Alps.
The area boast impressive places for example Orrido di Botri, a canyon with wild cliffs and rocks or the cave Grotta del Vento with its stalactites, stalagmites and underground watercourses. The whole area has a lot to offer to visitors. Nature lovers may go for walks or take hiking tours, sport lovers may choose among horse back riding, rafting, canoeing and fishing. In Autumn, it may be fun to take a walk to search of chestnuts and mushrooms. The charming town of Barga, Castelvecchio Pascoli the Spa town of Bagni di Lucca are also a must for visitors to the region. Lucca with its medieval walls is a short drive away and Pisa, Firenze, Siena and the wine lands of Chianti may all be visited in 1 day trip.

The house is in a prominent position on the top edge of the village, free on 3 sides and built on the back to another house. The house has a lovely garden (about 200sqm) with an outdoor area fully equipped with portable charcoal barbecue, sink in stone, sun umbrella, table and chairs for dining alfresco, a beautiful terrace with garden furniture where you may sunbath after a refreshing dive into the gorgeous saltwater pool (private) completely set in the earth (7,20 m x 3,70m depth 1,30), and from where you can enjoy spectacular views over the mountains. The pool area is also equipped with warm shower.

Changeover day is Saturday, with some flexibility in low season. In high season the house is rented weekly.

The house has a private parking and is reached within two roads, asphalted but with some gaps that I can pass through carefully with a jeep car. However, if you have a larger vehicle you may park it in a nearby parking area around 10 minutes walk from the property - in this case I can help you by bringing your luggage to and from the house.

A little slice of heaven
Laura’s property is truly amazing. The pictures don’t do it justice. The views are spectacular and the pool and garden the perfect place to relax. The house was perfectly clean and has everything you need. Vitiana is a picture perfect Italian mountain village with lots of little alleys to explore. You do need to plan a little bit and buy enough food for a few days if you don’t want to drive down the mountain every day to go to the stores. But bread, meat, eggs, and cheese are available at the neighbor’s. We had a really great time and it was the perfect mix of relaxing away from it all and taking trips to sights in the area. Laura is a great host and very attentive yet discreet. Thank you very much, Laura!!

Ferienhaus in wunderschöner Umgebung
Der Aufenthalt in Lauras Haus war für uns die pure Erholung. Eine wirklich schöne Umgebung, herzliche Nachbarn und Einwohner Vitianas sowie eine supernette Gastgeberin haben den Urlaub perfekt gemacht. Die Aussicht vom Haus und dem Garten aus in die umliegende Berglandschaft ist wirklich traumhaft schön und ließ uns den hektischen Alltag, den wir als Stadtmenschen sonst gewohnt sind, sofort vergessen. Der Pool, der zur alleinigen Nutzung zur Verfügung steht, bietet besonders an heißen Tagen eine tolle Möglichkeit sich abzukühlen und auf der dazugehörigen Terrasse zu entspannen. Es gibt reichlich Sitzmöglichkeiten, sowohl im Garten als auch vor dem Haus. Auch ein Grill steht zur Verfügung. Das Haus ist groß (3 Etagen plus Keller) und gemütlich, im antiken Stil, mit viel Liebe zum Detail eingerichtet. Alles war sauber und gepflegt. Wir haben uns direkt wohlgefühlt. Die Ausstattung ist auf einem sehr hohen Level und es fehlte uns an nichts. Bei der Ankunft stellte Laura außerdem verschiedene Lebensmittel wie Olivenöl, Gewürze, Pasta, Wein, Brot, Kaffee und Milch bereit. Von Vitiana aus sind viele Ziele für (Tages) Ausflüge innerhalb von 20 Minuten bis ca. 1 1/2 Stunden mit dem Auto erreichbar, so dass man sich den Urlaub sehr abwechslungsreich gestalten kann. Von Wandern/Outdoor Aktivitäten über Ausflüge in die umliegenden mittelalterlichen Bergdörfer oder einen Tag am Strand, bis hin zu einem Besuch der Städte Pisa, Lucca oder Florenz ist von Vitiana aus alles gut erreichbar. Abends lässt sich der Tag dann wunderbar im Garten mit Blick in die schöne Berglandschaft ausklingen. Die Unterkunft ist zudem sehr hundefreundlich! Das Grundstück ist eingezäunt und unser Vierbeiner konnte sich jederzeit frei bewegen. Auch die Begegnungen bei unseren Spaziergängen mit den charmanten Dorfhunden werden uns positiv in Erinnerung bleiben :) Wir empfehlen Lauras Unterkunft weiter! Insbesondere diejenigen, die auf eine Unterkunft in einer authentischen Umgebung, abseits der Touristen-Hotspots wert legen, die zudem in eine sehenswerte und weitgehend unberührte Natur eingebettet ist, werden hier definitiv auf ihre Kosten kommen.

Charming and comfortable mountain village house
Everything was perfect. Laura, the house owner, was lovely and very helpful. The house has been lovingly restored and furnished by Laura in the typical mountain style and is very quaint and comfortable. It is much bigger than the details suggest. It is on 3 floors. There are 2 living rooms; one on the ground floor and one on the first floor. Both have dining tables and open fireplaces. There are 3 double bedrooms; one has double aspect windows, one has a single aspect window and the third bedroom is huge with an extra large double bed with 3 windows offering double aspect. The two doubles share a shower room and the third bedroom is at the top of the house with its own shower room. Both shower rooms have new looking, white suites. The kitchen has a 4 ring gas hob, a centre hot plate and a large oven, a stone sink, dishwasher, and fridge freezer. Every window in the property has a stunningly, beautiful view of the Apennine Mountains and each has a mosquito screen. There is a washing machine in the basement room. The swimming pool is large and the garden delightful (and fully, securely fenced) with plenty of garden furniture and sun loungers. There is private parking for 3 or 4 cars. The village is very quiet and quaint with a bar that opens some nights around 8pm. One evening there was a village talent competition which had a lovely, community feel and the bar was selling donuts too. The shop is hidden in the house next door to the holiday home, but if you ring their doorbell and the owners are in, there is a large choice of cheeses and meats. The lanes up to Vitiana are twisting and narrow, but we didn’t find it difficult. We didn’t have a problem driving our Nissan Qashqai through the very narrow points into the village either. It all added to the idyllic charm of this mountain top village. We visited Lucca, the Cinque Terre, Florence, Barga, Pisa, Forte dei Marmi, Lago Puccini and many mountain top villages - all absolutely stunning. We would highly recommend this holiday home.

Peaceful with lovely views
We very much enjoyed our stay at Laura's lovely house. The location is perfect if you're looking for peace, quiet and the local Italian experience. The pool and patio are fantastic additions to the property and the house itself is very well kept and retains the original feel. Laura is a wonderful host and will make you feel very much at home.

Villa life in quiet village, such views!
Some places are worth the effort it takes to get there. This is true of Vitiana and this lovely house. Owner Laura is very responsive and friendly, answered all my questions promptly, and was there to greet us with fresh bread, wine, and other goodies, just in case we had not realized how remote the quaint village is. Her directions (that you'll receive upon confirmation) are very thorough and easy to follow, although the village and house itself are well off the tourist track. A big plus, but something to understand in your travels there. The house is spacious and beautiful and has all that you could want for a restful country stay. The neighbors are friendly, despite our lack of language skills, and on our arrival day, two of the neighborhood dogs literally led us around the village to show us around--charming! We did not need a grocery store, as we had supplied ourselves before arrival, but there is nothing commercial in this village, except the bar, which we did not visit. There are stores on the quick (but through the "bottleneck") drive to neighboring Fornali, and Lucca is less than 45 minutes away for more shopping if you need it. Lovely space, thanks for a great few days.

Expérience immersive
Laura est une hôte adorable, attentive et chaleureuse. Nous sommes accueillis avec un frigo déjà garni pour le premier soir. Une bouteille de bulles et du pain vous attendent également. Seul bémol, le passage à l'éntrée du village qui est étroit (vive les petites voitures). Malgré une température printanière assez fraiche (4 mai au 11 mai), nous avons pu profiter de la terrasse à défaut de la piscine. Endroit idéal pour allier visites culturelles et activités nature. Merci Laura

Toskana-Idyll
Wir hatten einen wunderbaren Aufenthalt in diesem ausgesprochen schönen Quartier in einem idyllischen toskanischen Bergdörfchen. Herrlich gelegen mit traumhaftem Blick in die Berge und Ortschaften direkt von der Terrasse. Hier kann man wunderbar entspannen und sich erholen- sehr schöner Pool , Liegestühle, ein großzügiges Haus mit viel Platz und sehr guter Ausstattung. Kleine Wege und Treppen führen durch den Ort zum Haus, ebenso eine Straße. Je nachdem, ob man sich durch die Schmalstelle mit dem Auto traut. Wir haben entschieden, es vor der Engstelle abzustellen und zum Haus zu laufen - ca 5 min. Gastgeberin Laura ist sehr nett, freundlich und hilfsbereit - auch sofort bei Ankunft und Abfahrt mit dem Transport des Gepäcks, wenn man nicht mit dem Auto zum Haus fahren möchte. Man kann direkt vom Haus loslaufen und spazieren gehen. Einkauf muss man am besten gut planen oder mit Ausflügen verbinden, da man ein bisschen braucht, um den Berg runterzufahren. Ein wunderbares Ferienquartier- wir kommen gerne wieder!

Ein kleines Paradies!
Wir hatten sehr entspannte Tage in diesem Ferienhaus. Das Haus ist sehr geräumig und liebevoll eingerichtet. Der Pool ist fantastisch! Die Lage auf dem Berg ist wunderschön. Man kann herrliche Ausblicke ins Tal, auf den Appenin und die Apuanischen Alpen genießen. Bei dem Dorf handelt es sich um ein uraltes und gewachsenes Bergdorf. Alle Einwohner waren sehr nett. Laura, die Vermieterin, war immer ansprechbar bei Fragen und in jeder Hinsicht hilfsbereit. Absolute Empfehlung für alle, die die Ruhe genießen möchten!!!!
