Bissantica, 17th-Century Stone House - Authentic Sardinia, Private Courtyard

The Space
Bissantica is not a vacation rental. It is a living piece of Sardinian history.
Built in the 17th century and restored using traditional techniques—raw earth bricks, juniper beams, granite floors, and hand-laid stone walls—this house has retained its soul. Two en-suite bedrooms, a library with floor-to-ceiling bookshelves, a kitchen with an original fireplace, a whirlpool tub, and a private inner courtyard that has stood for four centuries.
Every detail was restored by its owner, an engineer specializing in the restoration of historic Sardinian buildings, over two decades of dedicated work. Nothing here is merely decorative. Everything is authentic.
The Experience
Bissantica is designed for those who travel at a leisurely pace.
Morning coffee under the pergola. Afternoons among nuraghi, wild horses, and empty beaches. Evenings by candlelight in a stone courtyard where time moves differently.
The village of Lunamatrona welcomes guests as part of the community—not as visitors passing through. That is rare. And it changes the way a place feels.
