Description Florentine Dreamer: Firenze

Art-layered walls and warm parquet floors give this Florence apartment a personality that feels lived-in and considered. The bold floor-to-ceiling tilework in the bathroom is the kind of detail you don't forget. Practical touches matter here too – air conditioning for Florentine summers and garage parking included. The Duomo is around twenty-four minutes on foot, while both Ponte Vecchio and the Uffizi Gallery are a thirty-minute stroll – meaning the city's greatest hits are walkable from the door.

Home truths:
* If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a cot. You'll need to request it in advance.
* On-site parking can be arranged if you plan on hiring a car.
