Not another charming medieval Umbrian hilltop town?

Can you have too much off a good thing? Almost everywhere we looked in Umbria we could see charming medieval hilltop villages and towns. You really are spoiled for choice, you could stop every few kilometers and wander around another historic village or town.
Don’t thing these are decaying, neglected places or just tarted up for tourists, these towns and villages are full of life.
You do really need to have a hire car to get around rural Umbria though. The driving can be pretty hairy at times.
It was amazing on the drive back home to Berwick from Edinburgh to get the impression that Scotland wasn’t that green. Usually when you return from the south of Europe you think it’s lovely to be back in verdant Scotland but after all the densely wooded hillocks in Umbria, Scotland was looking slightly wishy washy.
