Roundabout

Roundabout: Tuscany

We adore this chic home's stunning terrace with its wonderful view of the Duomo di Firenze (Florence Cathedral) and many of the city's famous sights. It's a huge space, nestled in among the rooftops and drenched in sun. As the sun goes down, it's the perfect place to eat some local produce and sample some Tuscan wine. We also really love the living room style – its simplicity defined, with pale colours and a clear influence from Scandinavian design. Located in the heart of Florence's luxury shopping district, Via dè Tornabuoni is just a three-minute stroll away. This neighbourhood is also known for its array of Florentine restaurants, cafes and bakeries. If you want to visit the Duomo, it's a four-minute wander, while the medieval Ponte Vecchio is an eight-minute saunter. For art lovers, the Uffizi Gallery is just over ten minutes on foot. Whatever you decide to do – make sure you bring comfy shoes – there's so much to see nearby.

Home truths:
*There are a few steps from the lift to the front door
*There is no shade on the rooftop terrace, so bring a hat
*For longer stays, the home lacks some basic cooking essentials and toiletries
