You'll love the views from this traditional villa in Garfagnana.

It's not the most modern home, but it has a lot of heart – the rooms are cosy, comfortable, and packed with character. The location is convenient for exploring the area, too. Lucca, Barga, Castelnuovo Garfagnana, and many more hidden gems are easily discoverable by car.
The Plum Promise
- No time for average – We reject thousands of homes worldwide, so you don't have to.
