Description Pistachio: Roma

Outdoor space is a rarity in this historic city, but this charming home has no fewer than three terraces to choose from. Right next to the Tiber, just a fifteen-minute walk from most of the city's big attractions, you'll have incredible, 360º views – and the sunset over the Vatican is something really special. The interior is colourful and comfortable, and while it's stylish, it's easy to feel at home. It’s split over two levels at the top of a traditional building but there's a lift to take you up to your front door. All the terraces are excellent (and one is just off the kitchen so perfect for meals outdoors) but the show is well and truly stolen by the rooftop terrace. Climb the steps for one of the best views in this part of the city – it's even head and shoulders above a nearby rooftop bar. Out and about you'll find plenty of great places to eat and drink on your doorstep, and all of central Rome is easily walkable.

Home truths:
*Although there's a lift up to your home, there are internal stairs up to the second bedroom and the steps to the roof terrace are very steep
*There's no washing machine in the home, but the host can arrange laundry for long stays
*For longer stays, the kitchen lacks some basic cooking essentials – we'd recommend bringing your own
