Someone recently asked for accommodation recommendations in Tuscany and Umbria, where we went on our honeymoon two years ago. (We also went to gorgeous, spectacular Santorini, but that's a different story, and possibly a different post.) Here's an interesting one in the beautiful hilltop town of Orvieto, which was featured in Conde Nast Traveller. Palazzo Caravajal was built in the 15th century for an Italian cardinal, and here's our room with its 18th century frescoes. That lovely room plus a delicious breakfast was just 60 Euros, quite a bargain especially for Italy. It's not flash or anything, just cosy and steeped in history. And it just so happened that Orvieto was the venue for a Slow Food celebration while we were there. So of course we stuffed ourselves silly with a special menu that night, including the region's specialty: wild boar.
