Bottom Line
Set among olive and fruit trees in a quiet field, this bed and breakfast consists of four simple but clean, well-stocked apartments slightly set apart from one another, furnished with the basics. A few rooms are available for rent within the compound’s main house. Wine made by owner is available for sample and sale, and a much-lauded homemade breakfast is offered each morning at a very reasonable price. The main advantage of this location is its convenience vis-à-vis the Saturnia waterfalls (within walking distance), as well as its proximity to several towns of historical and cultural interest, including Pitigliano, Sorano and Sovana. The owner organizes full and half-day mountain biking excursions for guests for an extra fee.

Scene
Four simple but lovely, fully equipped standalone apartments in Tuscan farmhouse style that are popular with families
Agriturismo Le Cascatelle is especially popular with families and small groups seeking to enjoy the pastoral appeal and thermal offerings of Saturnia. The owner and his business partner offer a small array of spa services on site, and maintain a small, attractive dining room in the main house where breakfast is served and wine made by the proprietor is on offer. The buildings, which are new and well-maintained, feature stone patios that look out onto the rolling hills and handsome brick archways. The apartments are not fancy, but they are clean and peaceful and a great alternative to the pricier hotels in the area.
Location
A five-minute drive from the spa town of Saturnia along, and set back from, a country road in the middle of a field
The surrounding lush fields isolate the property from street noise and provide an especially bucolic setting. The short walk (500 meters) to the (free) Saturnia waterfalls is a particular advantage of this property; the spa complex is a five-minute drive. It's a 30-minute drive to the picturesque towns of Pitigliano, Sorano, and Sovana.
Rooms
Four simple yet conspicuously clean apartments in a bucolic country field
The apartments are built to house between two and four people. All are equipped with air-conditioning, a gas stove, and a fridge. Wi-Fi, clean linens, and dining essentials are included in the room prices, which are listed per person per night. Several individual rooms in the property’s main house are also available for rent, and continue the rustic, simple aesthetic through such country touches as flowered quilted bedspreads, terracotta tile floors, and wrought iron headboards.
Features
Access to Saturnia waterfalls, spa services, and mountain biking
The main structure has a charmingly remodeled dining room with exposed wooden beams and red brick, where guests take homemade breakfasts in the morning and can speak with the owner, who graciously recommends itineraries in the surrounding area. Wine made on the premises is also available for tasting and purchase. The property has a small array of spa services on offer, and also organizes half and full-day mountain biking excursions.
