When to go?
The secluded hill-top location (and efficient air-conditioning) make it a good choice for high season, but avoid July-August if you don’t like the heat, or don’t want to share your medieval towns with multitudes of tourists. If you do come in mid July, don't miss the superb jazz festival in Perugia. Spring, early summer and autumn are the best times to visit, though winter can be really cosy – the rooms are heated and there will be a real fire in the lounge.
