If you’re searching for somewhere in Venice away from the tourist hotspots, this apartment in the quiet neighbourhood of Cannaregio will be right up your street. Unfussy on the inside, it comfortably sleeps five guests and provides all the mod-cons needed in a home-away-from-home, with the terrace an added bonus and just the spot for evening aperitifs to enjoy the last of the sun. With the Piazzale Roma just a few minutes away by water taxi and its proximity to the Grand Canal and Fondamente Nuove, you can explore the city and further afield with ease.

Home truths:
*At full occupancy, one guest will be sleeping on a bed in the living area, meaning privacy is limited.
*While the home can sleep up to six people, the maximum occupancy is five guests.
*The decor here is a little generic. Those looking for a more luxurious stay may wish to look elsewhere.
*There are stairs to climb in this home. It might not be the best option for those with reduced mobility.
*There's no TV here, meaning guests can completely switch off and relax.
