La Cascinetta is a family-run bed and breakfast in Passirano, in the heart of Franciacorta, a short distance from Lake Iseo and the vineyard-covered hills of the area.
The property is aimed at those looking for a peaceful countryside stay, but with all the comforts needed for a self-catering holiday: each room has a refrigerator, microwave, coffee machine, toaster and electric kettle, as well as a private bathroom with bathtub, bidet and hairdryer. The three room types, from the Double to the Family Room, cover different needs in terms of space and number of guests, while maintaining the same level of amenities.
The common areas include a garden with a barbecue area, a patio and a common room where guests can relax after visiting the castles and natural parks of the area. Breakfast, served with Italian, vegetarian, gluten-free and buffet options, is included in the stay. Private parking and WiFi are free, and pets are allowed at no extra charge, making La Cascinetta a practical base for families, couples and travellers with pets who want to explore Franciacorta.

The rooms at La Cascinetta are divided into three types designed for different numbers of guests: from the Double Room with Private Bathroom, smaller and suited to two people, to the Family Room, which can accommodate up to six guests. All share the same basic amenities: private bathroom with bathtub, bidet and hairdryer, independent entrance, garden or inner courtyard view and a patio for outdoor relaxation. Each room also has a coffee machine for a self-service breakfast.
The main difference between the three options lies in the size and bed configuration: from the 20 m² of the Double Room to the 30 m² of the Family Room, which adds single beds to the double beds to accommodate larger groups or families with children. The choice of room therefore depends mainly on the number of people travelling, while the level of comfort and finishes remain consistent throughout the property.
The most compact of the three rooms, designed for two people, with 20 m² of space and an independent entrance overlooking the garden. It has a private bathroom with bathtub, a private patio and a coffee machine for breakfast in the room.
Larger than the Double Room, with 25 m² and a combination of single and double beds that makes it suitable for small groups or families with one child. A private bathroom with bathtub and garden view complete the room.
The most spacious option in the property, with 30 m² and enough beds for six guests: two single beds and two large double beds. Ideal for large families, it overlooks the inner courtyard and has a barbecue area nearby.
The outdoor spaces are one of La Cascinetta’s strong points: garden, patio, picnic area with outdoor dining space and a barbecue station allow guests to enjoy the property beyond their rooms. Inside, a common room with TV area is available for relaxing, while private reception and check-in are active 24 hours a day for maximum flexibility with arrival times.
Each room is designed for a self-catering stay: refrigerator, microwave, coffee machine, toaster and electric kettle are present in all rooms, along with a private bathroom with bathtub, shower, bidet and hairdryer. The property is entirely non-smoking and offers connecting and family rooms on request, as well as a high chair and an outdoor play area for children.
Completing the offer are free private parking, free WiFi throughout the property, luggage storage and a shuttle service on request to reach points of interest in the area.
