Just 200 metres from Florence's historic centre, this peach-hued villa feels more like a country home than city retreat, with its shuttered windows and sprawling gardens. Inside, it has a rustic, homely feel, with exposed wooden beams and terracotta-tiled floors. The kitchen might feel a little compact if you're cooking for a crowd, but the covered patio makes a lovely spot for dining alfresco, overlooking the lawn. It's a quieter corner of the city, free from the tourist crowds yet still very walkable – the Ponte Vecchio is just 1.5 kilometres away, while a twenty-five minute stroll brings you to Florence Central Station.

About Pitti
Unsurprisingly, Pitti stretches from the Palazzo Pitti – a Renaissance palace housing a vast European art collection – up to the river. Historically a working-class neighbourhood, today it’s full of boutique and artisan shops, leftovers from the tradesmen who used to inhabit the streets. This area is less busy and touristy than the northern districts, but those in the know still come to the Boboli Garden and Belvedere Fort for...
