Individually designed rooms open out onto large courtyards and terraces full of cushions and places to doze about under trees. Let them bring you cake, wine and espressos, while the rest of vespa-revving Rome buzzes all around you.

This luxurious guest-house is hidden among magnolia trees at the foot of the Gianicolo hill. Light and airy rooms open out onto a central terrace, where guests can sip an aperitivo among potted palms. Thick, ivy-clad walls keep the bustle of Trastevere away.
Luisa Longo, the artist and owner, has decorated the rooms herself, and all the art is available to purchase. The royal-blue bedroom, one of just three doubles, boasts its own secluded patio.
Each room has a DVD player and guests are invited to raid the large collection of films on offer. Tea and cakes are served in the afternoon (if requested) and a buffet breakfast is laid out every morning. Book well in advance.
