In a sleepy town in Tuscany, this breathtaking apartment is a unique find. Set in a former palazzo, it boasts classical Tuscan features like high ceilings, traditional archways, and a grand red brick exterior. Neutral colours inside contrast with the spectacular frescoed walls. We love the Rococo-style cherub fresco above the bed, lending the room a celestial aura. There is plenty of space to relax in the large open plan living area, and the fully stocked kitchen is perfect for practising your Italian home cooking. Certaldo Alto is a charming walled Medieval town, home to winding cobbled streets, picturesque churches, family run restaurants, and sprawling views of the verdant Tuscan countryside. It is 35km from Florence, making a day trip to the city easy. While you are there, be sure to sample some of the excellent wines from the region. After a day of exploring, kick back on the sofa in your opulent living room, before retreating to the serene calm of the bedroom for a perfect night’s sleep. With its romantic setting and unbeatable location, this would be the perfect getaway for couples.
