Enjoy the best of both worlds when you stay at this apartment in Florence. It’s in a quieter corner of the city, close to the Porta Romana and the Boboli Gardens, so you can savour a slower pace. Yet it’s still within easy reach of the sights – like the Duomo, which is a half-hour walk away. The home is just as charming as the location, with colourful tiles and frescoed ceilings, and plenty of space to stretch out. And the best bit is waiting outside – a tree-shaded garden that’s your own private oasis.

About Pitti
Unsurprisingly, Pitti stretches from the Palazzo Pitti – a Renaissance palace housing a vast European art collection – up to the river.
