A Lovely Day

A Lovely Day: Veneto

Set inside a gorgeous 19th-century home, this opulent apartment boasts some stunning views of the Grand Canal below. It's ideally based in the heart of Dorsoduro, close to many museums and galleries where you can soak up the local culture, as well as ferry terminals for when you want to explore further out. The elegant touches really make this home special – we love the white marble feature fireplace and the traditional terrazzo flooring, along with the regal decor that gives the home lots of charm. It can also be made into two self-contained apartments, making it ideal for larger groups who'd occasionally like a bit more privacy.

Home truths:
*This home can be split into two self-contained apartments, ideal for groups who want more privacy. *While the home can sleep up to eight people, the maximum occupancy is six guests. *One of the double beds here can be made up as two twins when requested in advance. *This home has air-conditioning from April to October and heating from October to April. *Given the home's central spot, expect to hear some street noise throughout your stay. *Parking in Venice can be tricky, so we recommend sticking to the easily accessible public transport where possible.
