Umbria ITALY The small region of Umbria is a place where good food, great landscapes and a quiet pace of life are the recipe for a perfect holiday. Various towns and villages are spread across this green, pastoral region and all of these have their own distinctive charisma. The largest city in Umbria, Perugia, effortlessly maintains

the cosy charm and personal feel that is guaranteed to relax all your senses.

Wander around old-fashioned streets and gaze at beautiful buildings like the Palazzo dei Priori and the cathedral, both of which can be found at the Piazza IV Novembre.

Heading out to explore the Umbrian countryside, you’ll come across the most

magnificent sites. East of Perugia, you’ll find the village of Assisi. The birthplace of one of the most venerated religious figures in Christianity, St Francis, this place is today the home of a majestic basilica, built in his honour in the 13th century. Amazing fresco paintings and

beautiful art adorn the building and visitors can marvel at this as well as the nearby cathedral in this quaint little village. Umbria is about tranquillity, rural charm and great food, and as you explore this delightful region, you’ll never be far from great sights, tastes and local gems.

Relais & Spa La Corte di Bettona The medieval town of Bettona protrudes above the bucolic landscape of Umbria’s fertile fields, vineyards and olive groves. Perched on a hilltop, the old town consists of a warren of cobbled streets and classical houses of red bricks, sand-coloured walls and tawny stonework, and at the very heart of this charming place, you’ll find the beautiful Relais & Spa La Corte di Bettona. Facing onto the town’s main square, the hotel is a

delightful cocktail of Umbrian history and modern luxury and comfort. Built as a sanctuary for pilgrims in the 14th century, this charmingly restored, old building, clad in rustic stones, is today a resplendent urban retreat with such delightful contemporary delights as a large outdoor swimming pool, a fully-equipped wellness centre and a restaurant, from where you can enjoy both local morsels and panoramic views of the Umbrian countryside.

Stay in a Classic Double Room Styled in an elegant and classic design with a light colour scheme set again dark wooden furniture, the Classic Double Room offers a relaxing and comfortable setting for your Umbrian holiday. All of the hotel’s 39 rooms have been completely restored and refurbished without losing their medieval charm, and guests can enjoy various traditional features in the rooms, such as the exposed beams and brickwork, which are complemented with modern amenities like a satellite TV, air conditioning, minibar and free Wi-Fi.

WHAT TO SEE IN THE surrounding area of Perugia

Assisi Assisi is one of the most visited cities in Umbria, once home to St. Francis and St. Clare, it’s now a religious centre of the region, and a prime destination for many pilgrims.

Explore the narrow, steep, picturesque lanes which conceal plenty of surprises: a hidden restaurant, a faded fresco or a stunning view. The town is set on the slopes of Mount Subasio, and it’s possible to trek the nearby Regional Park, which opens up stunning views of the scenery that characterises Assisi.

Gubbio Set on the lower slopes of the beautiful Mt. Ingino, Gubbio was once the capital of Umbria. Old buildings, monuments and streets which date back to the Middle Ages abound in the city. Its ancient walls were built at the end of the 13th century, and visitors can discover gorgeous palaces, the Piazza Grande, as well as Roman, Gothic and Renaissance architecture. The elevation of the town also provides splendid views across the green countryside.

Perugia The old town of Perugia is steeped in history, and every street and corner reveal various delightful glimpses of the past. Visit the Cathedral of St Lorenzo which towers above the rest of the city, and explore some of the many other churches that profuse in Perugia. Despite the Medieval look of the city, however, Perugia is a vibrant and youthful city. Among other things it’s the proud host of the Umbria Jazz Festival and the EuroChocolate Perugia - the region’s international chocolate exhibition, where you can taste delicious home-made Umbrian
