Here you can live in the centre of Rome overlooking the Spanish Steps in spacious rooms with tiled floors and high, beamed ceilings painted in soft colours.

A fisherman’s cottage, on an exceptional medieval abbey site in a tiny and exclusive sandy cove between Portofino and Camogli. 

Once home to a prominent Florentine family, this apartment is better known for being the home of poets Elizabeth and Robert Browning. It is located on a quiet street close to central Florence.

The walls of a Roman villa dated to about 60BC survive up to the middle floor of the present house, itself begun around 850AD. Shuttered windows open onto the valley, the waterfall and Tivoli.

This fertile landscape an hour from Venice is sprinkled with Palladio villas, but Landmark’s Villa Saraceno built around 1550 is the only one you can have to yourselves for a short break.
