Lucky me has a big summerhouse in Barga! Any Researcers planning a trip to Italy are welcome to contact me - hopefully, next time I go I'll have somebody who'll weep of happiness together with me as we climb the winding roads up towards the town!

Hi there!

I was amazed to see the name Barga! I've got a little place there for the summer, too. Mine's a 500-year old former wine cellar and artist's studio in the old town. It's a lovely place isn't it???

Hello Researcher 227770, maybe you will be even more amazed to find that I have not just been in Barga but actually sat in your place when it was an artist's studio ... here is an image of that artist; Mario Madiai with his daughter Giorgia, (also an artist/photographer)

Barga is an amazing place with a growing community of international artists now taking up residence and working there.

The best place to check out what is going on is on the barganews.com site; http://www.barganews.com/

We are renting a house in Barga this June. We will fly in to Pisa. We need a ride to Barga. Does anyone have any ideas?

I'll take you up on your generous invitation to contact you. My wife and I are planning a trip to Italy in the fall. We plan to spend a week in the Garfagnana and would appreciate any tips you have about the area. We are looking for a small, one bedroom or studio apartment to rent tht is not too expensive near Barga. We would appreciate any information you can give us. thank you very much.

If you plan to spend a week in the Garfagnana, I suggest you to visit ingarfagnana.it site http://www.ingarfagnana.it/English/index.htm

I thought it was my little secret. Barga, I mean. I really don't want anyone else to know about it, so let's officially declare it disappeared.
