Description
Situated on a spur of the Appenines, this converted barn stands on 2 acres of tranquil olive grove and meadow, 2 km from the picturesque old walled town of Barga, which has all the shops necessary for daily living. The rooms are simple but comfortably furnished, with terra-cotta floors and chestnut beamed ceilings. The Barn has terraces facing south, west and north and the views are spectacular in every direction.
Please note that there are two houses on the property; the barn and its original farmhouse, which can also be rented together or separately.
Buvicchia is a cluster of houses at the end of a country road in the Media Valle del Serchio region. It is very quiet, a wonderful spot to get away from it all as we have been doing for over 50 years. Barga has all the shops needed for daily living and there are many good and inexpensive restaurants in Barga and the surrounding area. Barga is about a half-hour walk from the property, mostly on the flat and with some pretty views. The town of Barga has a swimming pool which is about 2.5km drive from the house. Lucca, a spectacular walled town, is 40 mins away, Florence an hour and a half, Pisa an hour and a quarter. There is a station 7 km away for trains to Lucca and beyond or up into the high Garfagnana. The sea is just over an hour away by car. A car is very desirable and car hire is available via the major companies at Pisa airport.
The barn: Built in the 1860s, converted in 1974 and fully restored in 2004, this converted barn sleeps 2. We have preserved as much of the character as possible by leaving the first floor almost unchanged (that's where the hay was!) and the ground floor open plan also. A terrace at the front and a second one in the garden both look out on wonderful views. A third terrace at first floor level also looks out over Barga. This is a real hideaway, a place for total relaxation

Barga country living
This place is wonderful, right in the mountains and with a gorgeous view of Barga itself. You can even walk into town via the backroads.

A fabulous location
The farmhouse and barn are in a beautiful spot outside Barga, with fabulous view of the duomo from the outside seating areas. We loved that it was walking distance from the Old Town, Our son and his partner came with us and we all had a wonderful relaxing week. We will be back!!!! 😎

Beautiful Buvicchia
We have stayed at Buvicchia many times and always enjoy its beautiful setting, the peace and quiet it offers but still convenient for Barga centre with it's excellent restaurants and bars. The barn itself is very well equipped and comfortable and I would not hesitate to recommend it to other guests.

Schönes Haus
Sehr schönes Haus. Die Kommunikation mit der Vermieterin war sehr gut. Zur Begrüßung war etwas Brot, Butter, Marmelade und Vino da. Der beschriebene „Pane-Van“ war super. Wir hatten eine sehr schöne Zeit!
