Villamassargia, in the province of Carbonia –Iglesias, is a pleasant town in the Sulcis, between the plains  and the hills. Villamassargia has got a very good location: it’s 45 km far from Cagliari airport (there are landing low cost airlines), 18 km far from the sandy beaches of Gonnesa (Plagemesu and Funtanamare), 7 km far from Iglesias and 20 km far from Carbonia.
In these two towns you can buy true local products because a lively market is held once a week. Villamassargia is the best starting point for the expeditions of free climbing: Domusnovas is only 5 km far and Masua Nebida 30 km.
The Ioannis nidum is in the countryside, at about 500 m far from the central square of Villamassargia. It has got all the comforts that you need to spend a quiet and peaceful holyday not very far from the solitary beaches.

The South-West of Sardinia, the Sulcis, is a true land of farmers, shepherds and miners. Here are preserved the ancient values that in many other areas of the island are disappeared after the cement invasion, traffic and touristic crowding. Here people are very simple and quite poor; as you know mines have been abandoned and changed in industrial archaeological tourist sites will show you the hard life of the miners, here you can taste the true cooking based on local production of different vegetables, fruit, grapes, apricots, peaches, oranges, ficodindia, and meat of lamb, kid, beef and pork, and the fresh fish which arrives every Thursday from Sant’Antioco. Here the pasta is often served with “bottarga”  (dried eggs of mullet or tuna). You can find the “pecorino” cheese, which is very famous all over the world, straight here in Villamassargia ; you can taste it with the red wine “Cannonau”, “Carignano”. Here you can taste the best liquor obtained from myrtle. This is the true SW Sardinia
