Vacation rental – 2 suites
Only a few steps from the main Villa, walking through the enchanted honeysuckle pergola you will reach the old caretaker’s cottage, situated within our historic country estate. Based on the original blueprints of a humble, Ligurian adobe we have created a wonderful, traditional home built from regional stones. Two generous suites with opulent French doors and windows enjoy spectacular views towards the Mediterranean Sea and sometimes even beyond to the coastline of Cinque Terre.
As the sun rises La Foresteria is illuminated by the golden glow of the first rays which you can enjoy right from your comfortable bed. Wonderful paintings created at Villa Barca by German artist Heidrun Brocker accent the walls and pull in the ever-present nature as the main focal point.
The Foresteria-suites feature well equipped kitchens, inviting you to cook the sumptuous delicacies that you may have found at the local farmers markets or in the small shops of the valley. Start your day indulging in the breathtaking views in the privacy of your own patio. Even during cooler times you can enjoy the vista from behind the panoramic windows while sitting next to the comfortable pellet fireplace
After a day full of activities VILLA BARCA awaits its guests with the unique atmosphere that this retreat has to offer. The Villa sits on 15.000 square meters of Mediterranean garden and olive growth.
A unique part of Villa Barca is the old church that sits adjacent to the main building. Erected in the 1700s and modernized by the original owner of the Villa it is now hosting our “room of stillness”. A quiet place to meditate, practice Yoga or just enjoy the luxury of tranquility. You can also schedule Ayurvedic and other holistic treatments during your stay to enhance the perfect balance of body and mind.
Relaxation with a view: That’s what our guest can expect in our tranquil sauna-garden. Whether dozing in the sun, taking a refreshing footbath, an energizing shower in our grotto, or soaking in our plunge pool – you will always have commanding views of the valley down to the Mediterranean sea. A perfect place to just enjoy life and let go. For colder days our Finnish sauna along with some herbal infusions will make you feel revived and rejuvenated.
