Sorano
Built on a tuff outcrop above the Lente River, this medieval hill village in southern Tuscany sits in mountain wine country with scenic views across the surrounding terrain. Small even by Tuscan standards, it has a handful of cafés and restaurants and draws independent travellers looking for an unpolished base near the wider region's UNESCO heritage sites.
