Hilton Sorrento Palace to the rescue for a last-minute half-term retreat

The southern Italian town of Sorrento sits perched on a cliff with views across the Bay of Naples towards Mount Vesuvius. It is known for its rich history and its maze of narrow streets, traditional restaurants and charming piazzas. In Greek mythology, it was home to the sirens, who attracted passing sailors onto the rocks — and it continues to lure visitors in today.

The area is also known for its citrus fruit and huge lemon-bearing trees, and The Hilton Sorrento Palace is the perfect place to see them as it is surrounded by groves.
