Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Staying here, you enjoy easy access to the centre of Florence while still being able to enjoy a relaxing family holiday. This home is a mere fifteen-minute walk from sights including Ponte Vecchio, the Uffizi, and Piazza della Signoria. Yet when you’re soaking up the sun from the private garden or dining alfresco in one of two courtyards, you feel a million miles from the tourist crowds. There’s also a bus stop just two minutes from the house, so if you’re not up to the walk you can still get away with not hiring a car.
