Calitri in the Avellino region of Campania (Southern Italy) - I also love Nusco and Melfi that are nearby.

(note: I'm totally partial though - that's where we have a home.)

You bought a house there? Wow. Can I come stay for a few days? Does the "count" still own the castle? Do you think he would ever sell?

I'll see if I can come up with the money... you want to go in 50-50 with me for your part in helping keep an eye on the place?

alas...Calitri Castle is now a museum so I doubt they'd take our offer to buy no count either...although still a local "Baron" and "Baroness"

Hands down, I agree with Rex.

Bassano del Grappa in Italia...Unreal! The real deal in Italy.
