"Parma, Bologna, Prosecco: a list of Italian destinations can sound, rather deliciously, like a glorious spread of antipasti and aperitivi. Diehard cheese enthusiasts will be pleased to learn that the Asiago Plateau is a real place — and a strikingly beautiful one at that — northwest of Venice in the province of Vicenza. And it gets better: there’s an excellent hotel up here in the mountains. Meltar Boutique Hotel is located inside a restored old farmhouse in the middle of, well, nowhere, making it a perfectly tranquil getaway from the tourist crush of the Veneto." - Tablet Hotels
