The South of Italy

The South
• little-discovered, surprisingly green landscapes
• hotels of character offering delicious regional cuisine
• walking, cycling, self-catering properties and journeys

Often referred to as Il Mezzogiorno (literally ‘midday’), the South of Italy is a joy to discover. Choose the Amalfi Coast or the Sorrento Peninsula, and you can explore charming villages which cling precariously to the slopes amid expanses of lemon groves. Basilicata, meanwhile, surprises the first-time visitor with its wealth of sights – from Greek theatres to colonies of ancient cave dwellings – scattered across the rugged mountains and wide-open expanses of pastureland, while Puglia boasts Baroque towns and conical trulli houses surrounded by vast olive groves. Explore on foot, by bike or by car.
