Photos and Description of this Bolano holiday barn Stone barn, 128 sq mt, 4 floors, ligurian style, 6 miles from 5 Terre and Lerici

6 miles away from the “Cinque Terre” National Park. 6 miles away from Lerici and the wonderful Poets’ Gulf of La Spezia. 6 miles away from Lunigiana, 'The Land of Hundreds of Small Castles'. On the hills raising from the coast, in the heart of Levante Ligure. This is the strategic position of “Il Fienle dell'Anima' ('The Barn of the Soul') a XVIII century stone barn, built in Ligurian style and located next to a XVII century small church. Built by two pirates escaping from Pisa, it was originally used as a house, then as a farm building to store hay and protect animals in the night. Surrounded by old growth woods, the building has now become a 128 square meters, four-floor, charming house with a fascinating lounge, a great kitchen, a tres jolie dining room and a beautiful bed room under the wooden roof, with a maximum guest capacity of 6 pp. The owner, that refurbished the barn by himself using only materials found sailing or in the property, is a writer, artist and sailor

At the border line between Liguria and Tuscany. The land of sea, of forrests, mashrooms, where every town has a castle and a summer fair. Here life remained easy and simple, the tastes of food are the same of centuries ago. The wine is simple and genuine, the sea still clean and blue. The Gulf of La Spezia is called 'The Poet's Gulf' because artists as Keats, Shelly, Byron and many others lived here and loved this beautiful coast. This is one of the best places for sailing. In few hours is possible to sail from Cinque Terre to the island of Capraia or to Corsica. Two hours driving from MIlan, 50 minutes from Genova, 25 minutes from Pisa. This corner of Italy is very easy to get to, but hard to leave.

Every single object of the room, the lamps, the sculptures on the wall, are made by the artist with his own hands, using only materials found in the forest, or along the beach: Ardesia (the typical Ligurian Grey stone), old wood ('one of the reasons why I bought this barn is that was full of old wood to be used for sculptures' the owner said), sailing ropes, fishing nets.

This is not a house, this is 'Il Fienile dell'Anima' (The Barn of the Soul).
