Located on a central street in Florence, this fantastic apartment is ideally situated to enjoy the sights and culture of the city. Start your mornings here with a breakfast that has been prepared for you, or enjoy a cappuccino on the balcony to admire the views. Then, why not go for a leisurely stroll around the beautiful botanical gardens – a two-minute walk away – and breath in the floral scents. This home is just across from the Piazza della Libertà, which is reachable in just five minutes on foot. Or slightly further away, you can visit the Duomo – also known as the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore – which is a twenty-two-minute walk away. What’s more, there are plenty of other sights on offer nearby, including The Uffizi Gallery and the Ponte Vecchio, which can be reached in twenty-eight minutes on foot via a labyrinth of museums, cafes and shops which line the streets as you head south. After a busy day of exploring, we would love to pop open a bottle of Italian wine to sip alfresco with a delicious meal of pizza or pasta on the balcony as the sun sets over the landscape.
