Il Legname

Holiday Rental Description

Since 1869, the Campo de' Fiori has been a hub of market trading for fresh fruit, vegetables, and flowers. And by evening, this charming square becomes a hub of alfresco dining spots and wine bars. With that in mind, this studio apartment is pretty convenient, at less than a minute away. But if you want to keep busy rather than relaxing with a glass of chianti, you’ll find palaces, museums, and statues all around – such as the Museo di Scultura Antica Giovanni Barracco, two minutes away. However, we feel that this home is somewhat of a landmark itself. As you step inside, you can help but be taken aback by the striking timber ceiling. These thick, rustic beams ooze old-world Italy, transporting you back in time. But with modern twists from minimalist furniture and quirky artworks, there’s an elegant clash of eras which makes this studio feel unique. We love the luxe touches like the marble kitchen sink and bathroom, although your host can provide an even better VIP experience. After being picked up by your private driver from the airport, you might fancy taking up their offer of a wine tasting tour or ride on a classic Vespa.

Home truths:
*Your host can arrange for airport transfer, car rental, and tours or experiences for an extra fee
*You'll need to pay a €25 to check in after 8 pm
*There's no oven in the kitchenette, so it's best for simple meals (or you can head to one of the many nearby restaurants)
*The entrance to the building is shared with other residents, not private to your home
*This is an internal apartment, so natural light is limited – the only window looks out onto the hallway (where there is an external window)
*If you're bringing a little one, your host can provide a cot
*There is no dedicated workspace, but plenty of laptop-friendly spots like the dining table
*Parking is not available, but the nearest bus stop is just 180 metres away
