General Info |
|
| |
We aim to provide a slowness to your holiday; a range of simple apartments of varying sizes where you can prepare your own feasts using our fully equipped kitchens and the organic beef, olive oil and white truffles that the farm produces or relaxing moments by the swimming pool gazing over the quiet stillness of the farm. Our ecologically restored Tuscan farmhouses keep the rustic quality of old, but with modern bathrooms & kitchens, swimming pools and toasty central heating. The three houses are set deep in the 500 hectare organic farm; surrounded by nature and perfect for a relaxing break and day trips to nearby cities. Two houses, Brentina and Doderi, are divided into apartments for 2, 4 or 6 people and the final house is independent with private grounds accommodating 8-10 guests.
Solar panels, wood-burning furnaces and filtered rainwater are part of our commitment to the environment. Barbialla Nuova is one of the largest and wildest organic estates in all of Tuscany.

Details on the area surrounding the property/accommodation |
|
| |
Barbialla Nuova is perfectly located in the middle between Pisa, Siena and Florence - ideal for day trips to visit the world renowned galleries, museums and architecture of these famous cities. We are in the beautiful Tuscan countryside and it is possible to explore many interesting villages nearby such as San Gimignano and Volterra. There are marked walking paths through our farm as well as swimming pools Brentina 5m x 3,5m, Doderi 10m x 5m and le Trosce 3m x 2,5m. Nearby there are golf courses, horse riding and bicycle or scooter hire. In the Autumn months we invite guests to join us for truffle hunting and many of our apartments have open fireplaces for cozy evenings in.
The apartments have a minimalist charm, spacious and with fully equipped kitchens set in gorgeous restored farmhouses. We have kept the feel of the old houses – simple furniture and terracotta floors - while adding some modern comforts.

Interior Details |
The farmhouses have been renovated respecting their original structures and adopting our well-loved policy of retrieval and reuse of original materials. The new renovations were carried out placing great attention on the criteria of bio-compatibility. The features of the apartments and their furniture were chosen in order to offer the feel and comfort of a private house and not just a hotel. Each individual object was chosen with care, as were the colours and lights. The apartments are deliberately without television or air-conditioning; instead, books and stereos are provided. We have a range of apartments, some with dishwashers and open fireplaces. Our house, le Trosce, has satellite TV. We have cots and highchairs on request and there is internet access at Reception. The apartments are comfortable in summer and into the cooler months also.
