Florence Belle Firenze, Tuscany

Property Description

In the heart of Florence, this apartment puts you within walking distance of the city's many famous landmarks. Among them are the Duomo (ten minutes on foot), Uffizi Gallery (a fifteen-minute walk) and Ponte Vecchio (also reachable in fifteen minutes) – not to mention a bevvy of shops and restaurants. Due to its ground-floor position, there's little natural light here. But we can overlook that since there's something better – a private courtyard garden. Outdoor space is rare in this postcode, making it the perfect spot for post-sightseeing aperitifs. As the living area has a sofa bed, we recommend this pad for short trips, especially if you're a group of six.

Home truths:
*At full capacity, two guests will sleep on the sofa bed in the living area.
*The courtyard patio may be overlooked by neighbouring buildings.
*The style here may not suit everyone’s tastes. The bathroom is a little dated – and given the ground-floor position, it may be lacking in natural light.
*As this apartment is in a central location, noise is to be expected. We suggest packing earplugs if you're a light sleeper.
*If you're travelling for work, you won't find a dedicated desk here. However, the dining table doubles up as a laptop-friendly workspace.
