Of a Bookish Nature

Of a Bookish Nature: Sicily

Recently renovated but with plenty of its original style, you might not be surprised when we tell you this artist-designed home is making a name for itself – it even recently appeared in the pages of Marie Claire. There's so much to love here – the large rooms with high ceilings create a sense of grandeur, while the book-adorned walls speak for themselves. If you love the interior as much as we do, book a private chef with the host to make the most of your stay. Outside won't disappoint, though – the home's location in the well-heeled Politeama-Libertà area means you'll find great eateries and boutiques nearby.

Home truths:
*You can access this apartment using the building lift, making it suitable for those with limited mobility
*Although there is paid parking available on the premises, driving in Palermo can be very tricky, so we recommend sticking to the easily accessible public transport where possible – though we think the best way to see the city is on foot
*There's a dedicated workspace here if you need to catch up on some work during your stay
*The entrance to this home is shared with the building's other residents
