A family diary

Italia
2026.

Seven days in the Sannio hills, an hour from Naples and a world away from it. A loose plan, a strong base, and time enough to wander.

Our home
for the week.

A medieval hill town on a tufa cliff, set in the Aglianico-and-olive country of the Sannio. Roughly an hour from Naples, two from the coast, and ten minutes from a proper espresso.
