Holiday Apartments in Fosciandora, Lucca Region, Tuscany
Restored Stone Cottage with Pool
Spectacular Mountain Views
Two x 3 Bedroom Apartments
|
|
Peacefully located newly renovated properties situated in the midst of the hills in the green and mountainous Garfagnana region of Northern Tuscany around 1 hr north of Lucca. These well equipped apartments have independent entrances and eating out areas for privacy but are ideal for hiring together too. Both the properties and the pool area boast spectacular views and there is plenty of space for relaxing around this large site consisting of vineyard, olive trees and terraces. This location is pure peace, and for those lazy days when one wishes to spend the entire day on site, we can arrange for a local chef to come and cook for you.

Notes on accommodation
Both properties are centrally heated (payable locally).
Air conditioning not required here in the mountains - evenings are pleasantly cool for sleeping even in height of summer.
Grounds are vast and spacious.
The grounds do have slopes and steps various places, but all terraced areas are appropriately fenced.
Outside
The grounds span 3.5 hectares. Each apartment has its own eating area with garden furniture, umbrellas, Laura has a loggia large enough for groups hiring both apartments to eat and relax together. Both apartments also have their own BBQ.
The pool is shared by the two apartments and is 5m x 12m.
Our area is perfectly situated for catching the sun and the village above us is the last in the valley to lose sunlight in the evening....
We, the owners live on site, but in our own independent property. We have our own approach road, gardens and pool and we cannot see your house or pool from ours and vice versa. Full privacy respected but we are not far away if you need any help/advice! Guests are welcome to use our second pool if they so wish.
Coast/Beach
Driving distance to beach is around 1 hr 15 minutes.
Travel
Closest airport is around 90 mins away at Pisa. Many guests also travel from Genoa (2.5 hr) Bologna (2.5 hr) Milan (3.5hr)
Car hire is essential - we can help with this.
Distances
Whilst set in the hills, we are less than a 15 min drive from the market town of Castelnuovo with its bars, restaurants, train station and famous Thurs morning market. We are 20 minutes or so from the mediaeval town of Barga and only 1 hr north of the City of Lucca, which is a must in terms of a day trip! Pisa is 90 mins & Florence 1 hr 45 mins. The real beauty of the area however is in the hundreds of hilltop villages to visit, the endless opportunities for walking and picnicking & the scenery!
Further details
Our closest restaurant is around a 6 min drive and we can arrange taxis with the owner. Apart from that it is a 15 min drive into Castelnuovo or 20 mins to Barga for good selection of bars and restaurants. Both towns have banks, supermarkets shops etc. The closest village shop/bar is 1km down the hill.
