This property had lots of little bits that make a rental more personal. This allows you to relax and feels more like your at home. The house itself is very large with plenty room. It’s not modern but we found that added to the character. The terrace give s a stunning view. We loved it

Fantastic
We stayed during may with our children . We couldn’t have been happier with the accommodation which was light, spacious, beautifully decorated and with all mod cons. The huge outdoor space (terrace and gardens) was thoroughly enjoyed by us . The owners (a lovely family) were on hand if we needed anything ,as was Charlene.
Perfect base for exploring and only 5 mins walk to Barga . Would highly recommend this accommodation for anyone visiting with children or a couple/family looking for a private, beautiful setting to relax and unwind Anthony, Charlene were brilliant. incredibly helpful, knowledgable and friendly. We will definitely book through them again.

Perfect retreat in Barga
This house has everything you would need for a comfortable stay in the town of Barga. The rooms are spacious and the house comes fully equipped as per the property description. The owner has compiled an Information Folder - full of useful information on places to visit and lots about the local history. There are lots of other books and tourist maps etc. in the dining and sitting rooms. The best area of the house is the Terrace - leading straight from the kitchen. The views are just beautiful - if you get good weather during your stay, you will find it difficult to leave the terrace!!
A bit of advice - I would recommend you hire a car to visit the other wonderful hilltop towns in the area, furthermore, I would recommend a smaller car such as a "Cinque Cento" (Fiat 500). Some of the roads in the area are quite narrow - a smaller car will give you more room.
Overall a great experience - I would highly recommend this property to couples and families alike.

Great property in a lovely town
We had a great time in Barga. The villa is really big and on a quiet road. We were 4 adults and 2 small children and there was masses of space inside and outside for us all. It's also really well stocked with things for kids (high chair, plastic plates and cups etc) and with the basics (dishwasher tablets, washing up liquid etc) which made our trip really easy. It's only a short walk (less than 5 mins) into Barga old town and you can drive down easily to the new town for the supermarket etc. The chocolate and ice cream shop just down the road is highly recommended too! Only 2 things I would mention - it's got tiled floors so bring slippers! (we went in April) and we should have hired a smaller car as it was a bit tight in and out of the car parking but we managed it ok.

Lovely traditional Italian house with amazing views.
This is a much larger property than we expected. It is spacious, traditional, nicely furnished and has amazing views from the balcony. It is so clean and the owner was so helpful. I cannot recommend this property highly enough.

Wonderful Views and lots of space.
Fabulous views of the Duomo and surrounding hills from a very spacious patio at the rear of the house. Great views also from the little garden opposite the house.
Patio has plenty of new chairs and a large umbrella for shade.
Parking space for two cars although getting in and out is a bit tricky.
Kitchen is very well equipped with plenty of glasses, china, dishes. Spare glasses are available in the dining room.
Toaster, Espresso/Cappuccino machine are available.
Interior of the house is very spacious with very comfortable chairs in the living room.
Bedrooms are spacious with plenty of hanging space and drawers. Bed linens are high quality and very large bath towels are provided. Beds fairly comfortable.
The downstairs bedrooms share a large bathroom with shower. Upstairs bedroom has its own en-suite bathroom with bath/shower combination.
Location is great for walking into the old town where there are many good restaurants. Also it’s a nice walk down to the Alpino, in the new town.
Overall experience very relaxing, we enjoyed our two week stay very much.
Overall, Via Sasso is a very nice place and we would recommend it to anyone.
