We are continually refining and adding to our portfolio of Short-Breaks in Italy. All our short breaks are presented with photos and descriptions taken and selected by us personally to give an impression as true to the reality as we can, in partnership with local family run hotels and guest houses. These are genuine Short Breaks chosen and researched by people working for or in partnership with Xtrallusion. This is NOT an unverified 'web portal' or online directory - we select only those places that satisfy our criteria for price, quality, charm and location. Places to stay have been carefully selected so that you can reach them easily - ideal for long weekends and short break holidays when short transfer times are important.

Everything was A1 and all the staff were delightful. The town was an ideal location both as a base and as a little resort in it's own right. If we didn't want to go far there were still lovely strolls and more interesting walks on the doorstep." Elsie Sedgwick, London, UK.
