LA LOCANDA DEL BARBAGIANNI
Bed & Breakfast
ABOUT US
While looking for a place to really feel at home Andrea and I, Gianna, came across this old farmhouse which had to be renovated in part, and we fell in love with it. The feeling of being in a "magic" place for its location, its silence, the unspoiled beauty of the woods, the pine forest and hills, the view of the sea with the wind bringing its scents won over us and we decided to establish our lives and our work here.
​
Respect for environment and traditions
We tried to renovate our house, an old farmhouse, whose origins date back to the end of the eighteenth century, in total respect of the surrounding environment and its structure . Built in origin as a small stone house, it has been enlarged over the years by the former owners and brought to be a beautiful farmhouse with all the features of the traditional Tuscan country houses.
Passion for the countryside, cooking, photography
When we met we immediately shared our common passions and those passions (countryside , cooking and photography) are the main reason which led us to change our lives and dedicate ourselves to the realisation of our dream: to have a B & B with a few bedrooms and a small cooking school to give our guests tranquility they seek along with good food and good drink.
Our 3 comfortable bedrooms and the Glamping Suite, furnished with original pieces and decorated with the typical Tuscan country style are immersed in the silence surrounding our house.
