Museums:
There are a number of museums in and around the area. We recommend the ones at Bosa, Cabras, Sagama, Suni, Nuoro, Tresnuraghes and Santu Lussurgiu.
Tharros:
The ancient Phoenecian city of Tharros is near Cabras and is definitely worth a visit.

Primevera nel Marghine and Autumn in Barbagia (https://www.paradisola.it/eventi-sardegna/autunno-in-barbagia/3048-calendario) are two major celebrations of Sardinian lifestyle with Cortes Apertas (open houses) in several towns and villages across the central belt of the island.
Each village has its own annual celebrations. We recommend that you consult https://www.paradisola.it/eventi-sardegna/primavera-cuore before visiting.
Su Nidu (in Italian "Il Nido", in English "The Nest"), a small stone house in a quiet square in the historic centre, for rent for holidays in Scano di Montiferru. It can comfortably accommodate 4 people. Fully equipped. See contact details below for more information.
Situated in a Borgo Autentico, a traditional Italian village, at the base of Montiferru, this is the ideal location for exploring Bosa, Cuglieri and all that the west coast has to offer; beaches, walks, lifestyle, etc.
The beaches of Porto Alabe and Santa Caterina are 20 minutes away by car. The white sands of Putzu Idu are half an hour away. Bosa is less than half an hour away; a town to see with its beautiful colored houses.
Of course the island has much more to offer. Come and have a look.
