Sorrento – land of colors, orange and lemon groves – is a coastal town of the Sorrento Peninsula located in front of the Bay of Naples.

 

Sorrento has been influenced by different cultures over the centuries. Greeks, Romans, Normans, Aragonese all passed through here, leaving their mark and receiving in return the fruits of a generous nature and the poignant landscapes of one of the most beautiful stretches of coastline in the world.

 

It was a compulsory stop on the 19th-century ‘Grand Tour’ and interest in the town was first sparked by the poet Byron, who inspired a long line of holidaying literary geniuses – including Goethe, Dickens and Tolstoy – to sample the Sorrentine air. The romance persists.
