From Firenze

From Firenze: Tuscany

This wonderful apartment can be found right at the heart of beautiful Florence. It’s a bright and welcoming space, the perfect home from home for couples or a family hoping to experience authentic Firenze. Here you get to live as locals do, while also being within a few minutes' walk of every major sight.

When you get up in the morning, you’ll likely want to sip coffee and eat pastries on the balcony. From there you can watch the city come to life as you plan your day. It’s always a good idea to head to the Uffizi Gallery nice and early, so we’d start there. When you’ve had your fill of incredible art – which is just a twelve-minute walk from the apartment – grab an outdoor table at a trattoria for lunch. Sip a glass of Chianti while you dine on spaghetti puttanesca. The apartment has a great kitchen with a dining table, so if you wanted instead to shop for groceries and whip something up yourself, you can do so easily – and you’re bound to feel inspired by the food here.

In the afternoon, you might like to stroll to Boboli Gardens. The world-famous gardens are a sixteen-minute walk away and are an oasis in the bustling city. Cross over Ponte Vecchio on your way back, browsing the jewellery shops and soaking up the history. On your way out for dinner, stroll along to the Duomo – the most iconic sight in Florence is seventeen minutes away, and the piazza it sits in is always lively.

After hectic days exploring everything there is to see and do in this most marvellous of cities, it’s a blessing to have such a lovely space to return to. You’ll feel right at home here.
