Casa Roc, Private Pool, & Arguably Best View In Barga! WIFI. Walk to rest/bar
Wonderful 3 bed, 3 bath Villa with private Pool, and arguably the best view in Barga! Treat yourselves! This charming villa sleeping 5 plus 1 has been renovated by the owner with his own holidays in mind, so a great deal of thought has gone into the preparation of this property, which has been designed to take full advantage of the unrivalled views of Barga seen from the house, gardens and pool. Home from home.
Casa Roc has been fully modernised, but has not lost its rustic charm, with wood floors, beamed ceilings and character features throughout, blending seamlessly with modern comforts! There is a real feel of romance, and whilst great for families, the house is ideal for honeymoons.
The property is just a 300/400m walk from a bar at the village pool, and a restaurant (open 3 nights per week) , and a half hour stroll into Barga cross country. There are 3 bedrooms, each with their own bathroom (2 fully en-suite), a welcoming open plan living/diner, and a designer kitchen. Each of the living areas, and two of the bedrooms overlook the garden, pool and the view of Barga with the mountains beyond. There are lots of large windows providing a fantastic light and airy space to relax.
Outside, there is quality outdoor relaxing and dining furniture, with plenty of shade provided by the canopy which covers the outdoor living area, and an enormous umbrella for dining al fresco in comfort.
The pool is fully surrounded by sunbathing terraces from which one can relax and enjoy the countryside and the views.

A little about the area: Please note that automated distance information can be misleading in rural areas. Although some places may appear close “as the crow flies,” walking routes are often impractical.
Situated in Albiano, with stunning views of Barga, and the mountains beyond, this property is a perfect retreat, less than a 5 minute drive from the Mediaeval town of Barga, with its hilly windy cobbled streets, duomos, 10th Century cathedral and ancient architecture. Barga is also renowned in the area for its good quality, but reasonably priced restaurants. There are often outdoor concerts/plays performed many times free of charge with performances ranging from Rock and Pop, to Jazz and the Classics.
Within easy walking distance, is the village of Albiano with its good restaurant, and local village bar.
Barga itself is circa 1 hour 15 mins from Pisa, 1 hr 40 mins from Florence;50 minutes from the beautiful walled mediaeval city of Lucca and close to the National Parks of the Apuane Alps.
Hilltop villages abound, and exploring can be either townie or totally rural - the choice is yours, if you can tear yourselves away from the house!

We attended a wedding at I Cedri so the location was fantastic. The view and pool area were amazing. The house was exactly what we expected and needed.
Velfungerende hus og meget flot udeområde - pool havde en rigtig god størrelse. Kan anbefale restaurant som er i gåafstand - billigt og god mad. Der kommer en lille brødvogn hver dag undtagen søndag som sælger brød ved torvet - meget hyggeligt.
Schönes Haus mit tollem Blick auf Barga und Berge in der Umgebung. Großer Pool und Garten. Gute Betreuung und schnelle Hilfe bei Fragen. Reibungslose Abwicklung beim Check-In und -Out sowie zur Halbzeit beim Handtuch- und Bettzeugaustausch. Etwas abenteuerliche Anfahrt, aber machbar.
Ein tolles Haus mit einem fantastischen Ausblick. Es liegt in den Hügeln mit Blick auf Barga. Ob vom Schlafzimmer, aus dem Küchenfenster oder vom Pool. Man hat immer diesen traumhaften Ausblick. Das Haus ist geschmackvoll eingerichtet. Die Küche ist mit allem ausgestattet, was man braucht. Wir wurden herzlich von Maraica, der Kontakt vor Ort, empfangen. Sie hat sogar schon einiges eingekauft. Obst, Milch, Eier., Joghurt, Sekt....So wurden wir noch nie empfangen . Wir haben viele Ausflüge gemacht. Florenz, Pisa, Lucca, Pistoia... Albiano liegt in den Hügeln, die Anfahrt (die letzten ca. 2km) ist eng und steil. Es gibt aber auch einen zweiten Weg durch Albiano. Er ist etwas länger aber weitaus angenehmer zu fahren. Wer die Ruhe sucht, ist hier genau richtig. Das Haus steht alleine. Der nächste Nachbar ist gegenüber im Hang und rechts etwas unterhalb. Auch möchte ich mich bei Maraica bedanken. Sie war immer erreichbar und hat sich direkt um alles gekümmert. Wir hatten am letzten Tag ein Problem mit dem Gas. Maraica hat direkt versucht, eine Lösung zu finden. Sie hat auch Lorraine von Tuscan Retreat darüber informiert, die mich daraufhin direkt kontaktierte. 10 Sterne für diese Betreuung. Ein rundum gelungener Urlaub
Heerlijke plek,prachtig uitzicht.niet te afgelegen maar wel rustig.enige nadeel waren blaffende honden van omwonenden.veel supermarkten in de omgeving.
Ein traumhaft schönes Haus in den Bergen von Barga dass zum entspannen einlädt. Der Ausblick ist wie in den Bergen abgebildet.
Der Check-in lief sowie der Check-out liefen dank Maraica reibungslos ab. Uns wurde beim einchecken alles gezeigt und erklärt. Vieles war bereits im Haus und konnte von uns genutzt werden. Die Innenanlage sowie die Außenanlagen sind gut gepflegt gewesen. Parken ohne Probleme, genügend Einkaufsläden in der Region (weniger als 10min entfernt) und eine Menge an guter Restaurants.
