A sun-dappled pergola in a garden so rare softly whispers your name in the Dorsoduro sestiere…

A pretty-as-a-picture ‘pied-a-garden’ for lovers of the ‘real Venice’ offering complete liberation from any busy-life blues, the dainty La Baruffa is a charming confection of peerless craftsmanship, bespoke furnishings and well-coordinated hues.

OUR COMMENT
LIFE’S A BED OF ROSES at new apartment LA BARUFFA – a sweet taste of paradise on the ‘Dorsoduro Museum Mile’…
A short amble to the iconic Church of the Salute, the Accademia Galleries and Bridge (and the VOV office!), the Palazzo Cini Gallery, plus the Punta Della Dogana Center of Contemporary Art, and close to a variety of fine eating places and bars including Ai Gondolieri and Ristorante Riviera for fine dining, and Osteria Al Squero and Cantinone Gia Schiavi for cicheti and spritz.
A short stroll to the new Conad supermarket Zattere Allo Spirito Santo and to 4 vaporetto (water bus) stops – Zattere Spirito Santo, Zattere, Salute and Accademia – for travel around the city (note that St. Mark’s Square can be reached by vaporetto from Salute in under 5 minutes on Line 1!)
Also close to the ‘traghetto’ at Calle Lanza/Calle del Traghetto S. Gregorio which, during operating hours, ferries passengers by gondola across the Grand Canal to the district of San Marco, and within easy reach of the Alilaguna boat stop connecting the Zattere to Venice's Marco Polo Airport.
