Within easy reach of La Casa Piccola is historic Assisi, one of the most beautiful towns in Italy with its magnificent 12thc. basilica housing frescos by Giotto . As well, there are the various sites associated with St Francis, to explore. Only a little further afield are Perugia, the regional capital and a university town renowned for its fashion boutiques, Spello, Spoleto, Montefalco, Gubbio and Sienna. Or swim at one of the beaches on Lake Trasimeno, where you can also catch a ferry out to one of its islands. The restaurants of Assisi, serving typical local cuisine, are a delight or you can shop at some of the weekly markets in the area. Both Rome and Florence are only two and a half hours away by train. The more adventurous may like to hang-glide from the top of Mt Subasio, while others will enjoy visiting the museums and ancient churches in the area. Best of all, however, is just to relax in the beautiful Italian countryside in a country cottage that provides every comfort
