Location
The town of Spello is one of Umbria’s best-kept secrets. If you look carefully, you can see traces of the town’s Roman past in the stonework of the Medieval buildings. Built on the hillside overlooking the Valle Umbra, Spello is an ideal base for visitors to explore the more famous sites of Umbria. Spello is known for its flower festival. Dating back to the 17th century, the “Infloriata”, takes place in early June. The town looks absolutely stunning as it is carpeted with flowers.

Assisi, with its famous cathedrals and shrines to St Francis, is just 20 minutes away by car. The stunning city of Perugia is a 30-minute drive. The town of Montefalco (30 minutes) is famous for its fine red wines. Visitors will find many different vineyards where they can try the wine and buy directly from the producers.

For self-catering, Spello’s weekly market takes place every Wednesday morning. Here you can find everything from food and flowers to clothes and handbags. There is also a supermarket a few minutes from the main town gates.

The closest airport is at Perugia a 21-minute drive away.
