Situated on the southern slopes of Mount Cetona, San Casciano dei Bagni owes its popularity to its 42 thermal hot springs, famous for their therapeutic properties. This lovely village, a cluster of medieval buildings has narrow, picturesque streets that surround the church and bell tower, and although the setting is rural, the town itself is surprisingly sophisticated, with lovely shops, several wonderful restaurants and a great place for gelato. Beyond the village, the pristine countryside is ideal for hiking, biking or strolling. This beautiful and unspolied region near the border of Umbria, is perfect for exploring the many enchanting hill towns of Umbria and southern Tuscany. Leave your car in Chiusi and travel by train to Rome or Florence in just over an hour. Arrange for health & beauty treatments at the famous nearby Fonteverde Spa..

The owner is a professional chef who operates a beloved restaurant down the road. With a day’s notice, she can prepare a poolside lunch or an elegant supper catered from the restaurant. She can also arrange cooking classes (arrangements should be made at the time of booking). We have dined at her restaurant and can vouch for her culinary skills. A cooking class with her is likely to be one of the highlights of your trip!
