The apartment is in BARGA, one of the Toscana's most beautiful hillside towns, at the second floor, south side, of an ancient villa with an amazing view from the private terrace.
Here you will find a place rich in fairy tale atmosphere with a nice private garden/vineyard where you can have lunch, take the sunshine or just read a good book.
The apartment has also a good location with easy walking distance from Barga's old town, theater, restaurants and shops.
The location of this apartment could not be better-1/2 block walking distance to the pharmacy, trattoria and walled city. A few more blocks to the main shopping area. The communal pool and the riding school are reachable in a 10/15 minute walking.
The quiet and relaxing place rich in fairy tale atmosphere could be ideal for honeymoon, however, if you have a baby it is possible to arrange a baby bed.

Local activities in and around Barga, Tuscany
Barga is situated 21 Miles north of Lucca at the southern end of the spectacularly beautiful area known as the Garfagnana which sits between the Apuan Alps and the Appenines in the very north of Tuscany. This is the 'real' Italy, and due to lack of tourism is very cheap for eating out, and trying local cuisine.
Barga hosts art, opera and jazz festivals "Bargajazz" as well as weekly markets & great local restaurants. Italian Touring Club has recently assigned the "orange flag" of the "Migliori borghi d'Italia" ("Best villages of Italy"), a distinguished sign recognizing the peculiarity of its beauty and of its quality.
Locally there are lots of interesting towns & villages to visit like Castelnouvo Garfagnana with its local market day, there are also supermarkets closeby. Lucca is the nearest main town - 45 minutes by car, bus or train - a beautiful walled city, a must to cycle the city walls, home of Puccini & great shopping.
The region has fantastic unspoilt countryside, very tranquil & perfect to chill out, there are national parks closeby and breathtaking hill top perched villages. The beaches of Forte dei Marmi - Tuscanys playground for the wealthy are 1 hour drive away. Bigger cities are also easily reached - Pisa 1 hour, Florence 90 minutes.
