Tucked away in the medieval hilltop village of Ravello and perched high on the cliffs, 350 m (1,000 ft) above the sparkling Mediterranean, Palazzo Avino overlooks some of the coast’s most picturesque fishing villages. Ravello is up away from the hustle and bustle of Positano and Amalfi which are besieged by day trippers and coach parties on a daily basis. Ravello is more gentile and civilised; cars are banned and you can spend hours meandering along various paths that lead to the Villa Cimbrone at the very tip of the village.

Palazzo Avino was built in the 12th century for a lucky nobleman and his family as their summer residence on the Amalfi Coast. Dramatically perched on the outskirts of Ravello with views swooping down to the harbours of Maiori and Minori, it is one of the great jewels of the Mediterranean.
