If you want to be in the centre of Florence but feel like you're in he heart of Tuscany this is the place for you.

It's about 10 mins walk to the centre of all the touristy things in a nice quiet neighbourhood, more local I would say. There are some great little osteria and cafes at the top of the road that leads up to an amazing view point near piazzale Michelangelo - bit of a climb but it's good for burning off the carbs from all the amazing pasta you're going to eat!

The apartment itself has a quaint, oldy worldy feeling...nice double master, huge other bathroom and for good measure a 3rd bathroom with shower.

The other bedrooms are doubles, like two single beds in each. One is large and the other is smaller but both grand for sleeping.

Lovely dining/living is on a split level and the kitchen is not huge but has everything you need, specially a huge dishwasher which makes your life easy.

The piece du resistance though it the terrazzo looking out to gardens on a hill. You'll leave the crazy duomo crowds behind and enjoy the sound of birds singing while enjoying a glass or two of prosecco for your apperitivo. Great for breakfast too of course
