The Umbria region
Although increasingly and deservedly popular with visitors, Umbria is still largely untouched and unspoilt by tourism. Almost every town and village holds its own delights, but even the well-known centres exist as living towns and not as tourist traps. San Francesco at Ca di Nieri provides a convenient base from which to visit, Assisi, Perugia, Gubbio, Cortona and all the other attractive Umbrian and Tuscan mediaeval towns and cities. The nearest large town is Citta di Castello with a full range of dining,shopping, banking and cultural facilities.
Perugia / Monte Santa Maria Tiberina area
For art lovers, there are galleries in Citta di Castello and Perugia. Or follow the 'Piero della Francesca' trail in Arezzo, Monterchi and Sansepolcro. There are, of course, wonderful frescoes in Assisi and Spello. And don't forget to bring your paint box!
For music lovers, there is the Umbria Jazz Festival in Perugia in July and for 3 weeks in August, Citta di Castello hosts the music Festival of Nations.
