La Tinaia - renovated 1 bedroom barn apartment with private pool
The area is known for its fantastic walking opportunities as well as other outdoor activities such as gorge walking.
While the hamlet has a get-away-from-it-all feel, it's conveniently located less than a ten minute drive from the main road where there are numerous shops, bars, and restaurants. In less than five minutes, you will find the nearest excellent restaurant and in the interesting stone
village of Fabbriche di Vergemoli, another three restaurants and a bar.
La Tinaia is a newly renovated and elegantly decorated 1 bedroom barn. The apartment is surrounded by wonderful scenery and has a fantastic vista of a large rock face. There is a private out of ground pool for guests to use in the well manicured garden. In the garden
guests will find quality sun loungers, sun umbrellas and other outdoor furniture. This owner has paid meticulous attention to detail in this
renovation.
From the garden you enter through large French doors to an open plan modern, minimalist designed space with high quality furniture. The newly appointed kitchen is well equipped with everything you could ask for.
Originally the barn served as a place for making wine. The owners have kept interesting design features such as the curved wall in the bathroom, which was originally the grape press, where the fruit was gathered and processed for wine.
This apartment is just right for a couple interested in outdoor activities and keen to explore the dramatic scenery and surrounding villages. Due to the convenient location it is also suitable for those who simply want to relax, eat, sit back and take in the lovely view. The location allows for a relaxing and quiet time whilst also being near excellent walking routes and within ten minutes of amenities. In the valley there's also fantastic opportunities for outdoor adventures and wild swimming.
The owners and their friendly dog live next door in their own villa and take meticulous care of the huge garden that guests can explore. Guests are welcome to bring their own pets.
Right next to the barn apartment is a large forest with excellent trails throughout.
