Why go to Umbria?

Especially: why go to Umbria when there are so many more famous places in Italy? Save yourself the hassle: Umbria offers a lot more than the more touristed parts of Italy.

My favourite things about Umbria 

  1. Food: food really matters in Umbria. Everywhere you go in the summer there are food festivals celebrating local dishes (sometimes a single one). Often pandemonium always great fun and always something delicious to try.
  2. Landscapes: Umbria's unspoilt landscapes are ridiculously picturesque and go on for miles and miles and miles into the distance. In the evening sit outside under the big Umbrian sky.
  3. Accommodation: Villa rentals in Umbria are established stone farmhouse conversions, often restored to the very highest standard and with all modern conveniences, swimming pools etc. If you are used to holiday villas elsewhere then you will be won over by the charm of these houses.
