A cosy Maison d'Hote, with a large welcome fire place in the bar, it is a must visit for a romantic lunch when in Venice. Situated in the original Cipriani in Torcello, book Ernest Hemingway's favourite room - the Santa Fosca - and you sure won't be let down. Come for the afternoon to escape from the city although, we assure you, once you've explored the idyllic grounds, you'll be yearning to stay longer.
