The Warmest Ice Venezia, Veneto

Property Description

If you had to dream up a model Venetian home, we think you'd come up with something like this. After arriving by water taxi, exposed brick and suspended paintings greet you at the entrance. Inside, the home is replete with curiosities, from Rezzonico chandeliers to 17th-century frescos, and awash with antique furniture. As such, it isn't particularly child-friendly, although well-behaved young ones are welcome here. At full capacity, you'll pay a small fee to use the single bedroom – perfect if you're travelling with a teen. The balconies offer canal views, and there are several places to dine, including the private garden. And if exploration is on the agenda, the Piazza San Marco is a few minutes away.

Home truths:

*The home includes a two-hour maid service six days a week, with bath and bed linen being changed every third day
*This home is spread over three floors, with no internal lift – it may not be suitable for those with limited mobility
