Agriturismo in Tuscany, with a pool, all necessary amenities for your comfort and a wonderful view


The agriturismo has received the "5 Girasoli award" (sunflowers award), the highest distinction that can be achieved by an agriturismo.

The agriturismo is located in Saturnia, at the heart of the Maremma in Tuscany, in a magnificent and unique location with panoramic views. It is surrounded by an incomparably beautiful, natural hilly landscape, in which individual trees, especially centuries-old oak trees, are intermingled with corn fields, vineyards, olive groves and forests.

Guests are accommodated in a completely refurbished country house made of stone called “Il Casale”, as well as in the houses of the “Borghetto”: Il Villino, Il Casaletto and La Casetta. Il Casale and the Borghetto lie about 200m apart, but are not within sight of each other.

The holiday houses are nestled into a 30-hectare organic farm, crossed by the Albenga River and the ancient Roman road “Via Clodia”. While Il Casale has its own exclusive outdoor area with its own pool and barbecue, the Borghetto houses share a communal pool in a discreet spot under an old oak tree, as well as a barbecue area. In the Borghetto, each holiday house has its own furnished outdoor area. Those who enjoy fishing can do so at the Albenga River. A table tennis table is also available for guests.

The agriturismo, framed by the Maremma landscape, provides holidays for people of all ages and in all seasons, bringing together interests in nature, culture and health. Guests can purchase poultry and small free-range farm animals from surrounding farms, as well as wine, oil and vegetables from the agriturismo’s own cultivation.

The agriturismo is located in particularly quiet, rural surroundings, even though it is in the vicinity of the ancient town walls of Saturnia. Therefore the most important services are nearby. The town is also within walking distance, by going along the road or crossing the hamlet and continuing for 600 metres along a gravel track. Guests can hike on the estate, along forest paths and through the Mediterranean macchia, or along the green banks and rocky gorges of the Albenga River, discovering an unspoilt, natural landscape. Here, guided only by a love of nature, one can come across pheasants, porcupines and wild boar and spot common buzzards and grey herons. The agriturismo is very close to the thermal baths and various golf courses.
