What to eat on your holiday in Italy
Food is one of the joys of an Italian holiday. Regional delicacies, seasonal delights and the freshest ingredients combine to make up the heart and soul of Italian dishes. Stone oven-baked pizza can be transformed by the addition of fresh basil and sun-ripened tomatoes from the chef's garden. Remember, there are two main types of pizza to choose from; Roman style, with a thin, slightly crisp crust, and Neopolitan which has a fluffy, thicker crust.
Pasta dishes are also synonymous with Italian mealtimes. Lasagne, with its rich ragu, cheese and bechamel, is a favourite of the region of Emilia-Romagna, rumoured birthplace of this national dish. When in Rome, the locals' dish of choice is spaghetti carbonara. The traditional ingredients of eggs, cured guancale, pecorino cheese and black pepper make the bland imitations made elsewhere pale in comparison.
Did you know that northern Italy is Europe's largest producer of rice? This is why the Venetians have two excellent risotto dishes of which they are justifiably proud. Risotto al nero di sepia (cuttlefish in ink) and risi e bisi (pancetta and peas) are definitely worth seeking out after a day exploring the canals and bridges of Venice.
Finally, we can't discuss Italian food without mentioning the cafes found in every village and town. Pastries, sweet cakes, biscotti, gelato and of course coffee are the mainstays of food on-the-go. Pop into a local bakery or street cafe and be as indulgent as you wish.
Family holidays in Italy
From baby-safe beaches to teenage-friendly activities, Italy has something for all the family. Soft sand and gently lapping waves are a speciality of south Sardinia. Kids of all ages will love splashing around in the warm clear waters, and with plenty of beaches to choose from, you'll always find the perfect location for a great day out. Public beaches have official lifeguards and can advise on the best bathing spots for different age groups.
Toddlers and older children are well catered for - even spoilt at times - all over Italy in restaurants and cafes. Nearly all will have a children's menu, with many having a small play area where parents can watch over the kids while enjoying a meal. Meanwhile, teenagers will love the independence of the promenades along the Adriatic and Venetian Rivieras. Shops and cafes to explore run alongside the long sandy beaches where the rest of the family can relax by the sea.
Beach holidays in Italy
Imagine the sunrise casting its light on pastel-coloured fishing villages that sit in the shade of towering cliffs. Breakfast on the terrace of your rental villa is a leisurely affair as you decide which local beach or secluded cove to visit. The ideal accommodation in Italy for your beach break is with well within reach.
The Amalfi Coast runs for 50km along the southern edge of the Sorrentine Peninsula between Sorrento and Salerno. Well known for its wide swathes of perfect beaches, fringed by terraced hillsides of small villages and vineyards, the area is a UNESCO World Heritage Site due to its unspoilt landscape and outstanding natural beauty.
The 15km stretch of beach at Lido di Jesolo can be found just north of Venice. The pine forests that dominate the area inland provide welcome shade and offer a natural windbreak. This is a popular area with locals and visitors alike, who enjoy the shallow waters, watersports and outdoor activities on offer here. Italy is a haven for beach lovers, and with over 7,600km of coastline along the Adriatic and Mediterranean Seas, you'll be spoilt for choice in whichever part of Italy you decide to spend your holiday.
City breaks in Italy
Italy has so many beautiful cities to explore that choosing one for your city break may seem impossible, so why not first consider the most famous of all: Rome? The city of culture, history and romance, where ancient iconic landmarks blend seamlessly with modern architecture to create a heady mixture for the senses, Rome is a must-see.
Or perhaps you would like to explore Venice, the city of waterways and bridges, where gondoliers glide down the canals with their passengers and St Mark's Basilica rises majestically above the red-tiled rooftops? A few days in Venice, exploring the narrow lanes and alleyways, stumbling upon hidden piazzas and cafes, is an experience never forgotten.
Then there are the cities of Tuscany; Florence, Pisa, Siena and many more. Tuscan cities are home to medieval castles, ancient spas and exquisite food, whilst excellent local wines grace the tables of every restaurant and cafe. Whether you choose simple lodgings or a luxurious villa, a city break in Italy will be a vacation to remember.
