For those considering where to spend their next holiday, Italy is a wonderful destination with attractions to suit every taste and accommodation to suit every budget from luxury hotels through to Sterling caravans and campsites.
There is nothing more relaxing than a villa holiday in Italy, maybe in the gorgeous Tuscany countryside. Great weather, friendly people – and amazing food, with healthy Italian cooking and delicious wine.
Tuscany is also famous for its cultural attractions and a holiday there has to include the historic city of Florence, often known as the birthplace of the Renaissance period and where you can see legendary works of art such as Botticelli's Birth of Venus or Michelangelo's David, as well as the incredible architecture of the Ponte Vecchio and Duomo.
A visit to the Amalfi coast is also not to be missed, with its miles of magnificent and dramatic coastline. Don't forget to take a day trip to Pompeii, where you can see some of the most historically important remains, perfectly preserved by the lava from Mount Vesuvius.
Then, of course, there is Venice, best enjoyed in the springtime before it gets too hot. The architecture and history of the city combines with the incredible sight of the waterways and the gondolas, for a totally unique experience and for a holiday which will never be forgotten.
