Panna Cotta

Florence’s stunning Duomo and Accademia Gallery (home to Michaelangelo’s David) are both less than five minutes on foot from this incredibly central apartment. Further afield (but not that much), the Uffizi Gallery and Ponte Vecchio are both less than a ten-minute stroll. So you see this calm and cultured apartment really does put all of Florence at your fingertips. Stepping across the threshold, it’s a soothing mix of white, beige and soft rose-pink inside. The open-plan living, dining room and kitchen lends itself to social evenings over a glass of wine, perhaps shared at the dining table for four. Shining wooden floors add a touch of class and natural light floods in from big windows. Housed within a building of services apartment, you get all the independence of self-catering with the little luxuries of a hotel – staff on hand to answer any questions and additional extras like cookery classes and grocery deliveries if you wish.
