Last two nights in italy.

Really enjoyed 2 nights at the la Palme site on Garda. A few kids about fot Halloween weekend but great site and weather still 25c.

Great stopover between Rome and Florence.

Citya Della Pieve is the name of the place. A small medieval town up high. The municipality encourages motorhomers by providing a flat and free parking area 5 minutes walk from town centre. Electric hook up powerful enough to heat water. A beautiful stopover. Met an English couple with a blind foxterrier, they live here but recommended monteppulciano as another great place... Next time.

Paestum.

After Tropea we arrived in Paestum, a town we visited in 2020 but had to quickly leave as Italy was set to be on the UK's red list due to rising covid rates. Its a place we like but would never recommend due to it being run down in parts. The site is good the beach is dog friendly and great for swimming. We enjoyed 2 nights here but now know that there are better places further south.

Leaving Tropea

Weather couldn't have been better. Clear sun every day with the thermometer always rising above 25c. Tropea itself was absolutely stunning and we enjoyed some fabulous restaurants , but after 6 days it was time to start heading home. But here's a few more pictures

Tropea

There I was driving along wondering which is the best place we've visited so far on this trip. Methinks either Peschici or Otranto. But, according to barbs logic, the pin had been stuck into the map and we had Tropea left. Our most southern venue was on the horizon. What a place, love at first sight. Campsite right on the beach, pitch with sea view, 25yd walk to dip your toe, torquise sea, great selection of bars and restaurants in the town. Incidently the city, yes it even has a cathedral, is a 5 minute walk from the site, but wait for it... Up 100 steps. The way it's looking Tropea might end up being the most beautiful European resort I've ever visited, but hold the front page.
