La Descripción De La Propiedad

Bertagni Farmhouse is an 18th Century farmhouse that once belonged to a much older Villa owned by Italian nobility. The property has recently been restored and converted to provide a beautiful 6 bedroomed holiday villa, accommodating up to 12 people, but which can also be rented in low season months as three elegant and spacious holiday apartments, each accommodating 4 people.
The villa and estate is located less than 1 km from the charming Tuscan town of Castenuovo Garfagnana, at the centre of a beautiful area renowned for its lakes, mountains, valleys and caves. Set in 60 acres of forest and hills, the villa has commanding views of the mountains and the village below.

Outside, the Italianate gardens meld into the beautiful surrounding landscape. This is a lovely, peaceful and classically charming property in a beautiful part of Italy

Información Local

The Farmhouse is situated above a little Village called Torrite, and about 10 minutes’ walk from the market town of Castelnuovo. Further afield, there are the towns of Forte de Marmi, Massi and Carrara, approached by driving through some spectuacular countryside with views over mountains and valleys.
Castelnuovo Garfagnana is the centre of this beautiful area, and all around there are attractive mediaeval villages, the best known being Barga, where an Opera Festival is held every summer. Nearby is the house of the Poet Giovanni Pascoli, and Viarregio is famous for its Carnival, held in February.

Other area worth visiting include: Lucca (45 minutes drive); Montecatini, famous for its Spa Water and Casinos (1 hour’s drive) and Florence about 1 ½ hour’s drive away.

If you relish the best in traditional Italian food, and don’t mind a drive to get it, Portofino is about 2 ½ hours away and is favoured by the Italians! Locally, however, there are many other restaurants in this unspoiled part of Italy.

Practically, there is a Gym including a sauna below the villa. Tennis courts and an indoor pool are also about 10 minutes away, and golf facilities about 20 minutes away. There is also a small food shop and supermarket within walking distance, and a local market every Thursday.
