Tucked into the heart of Florence with views of the beautiful Piazza Sante Croce, this charming apartment is tailor-made for two. There’s no oven here and you’ll need to climb stairs to this second-floor home, but with Italian eateries on your doorstep, dining out is sure to be high on your agenda. Location-wise, you’re in for a treat as many of Florence’s hotspots are within walking distance. And where better to start than the Basilica of Sante Croce, mere steps away and the famous burial place of many renowned Italians including Michelangelo and Galileo.

Home truths:
*There's no lift here. You'll need to be able to climb stairs to reach the entrance of the home.
*Given the home's central spot, expect to hear some street noise throughout your stay.
*You won't find an oven here – though there is a hob. We think the kitchen is better suited to prepping lighter bites than large meals.
