Light, bright and smartly decorated, this grown-up B&B is a calm retreat from the hectic whirl near charming Colwell Bay, Isle of Wight

A lovely modern Provençal house, light and welcoming, in a valley of vineyards and forest, tucked peacefully away from the coast

A Victorian farm steading cleverly repurposed as an open-plan holiday home with bright, colourful interiors, deep in the Perthshire hills

Few inns can rival the scale or history of this one. Dogs doze by the inglenook, food is sourced from local suppliers, bedrooms are gorgeous

A neat, recently restored townhouse inside Panicale's medieval walls with plenty of space and everything within walking distance

A wonderful country house, a unique wine story, very luxurious rooms and suites, a spa, infinity pool and restaurant

Steam in the hot tub, gaze over crashing waves or later stars. Inside is swish, kids play in their games room, dinner is in view of the sea

Two riverside properties with incredible views, for walkers, sailors, dogs... and self-caterers who aim to be spoiled rotten

A stunner of a setting for this restored croft house with long views to a sparkling loch and a lively village nearby. Good beaches too

A laidback retreat, well placed for visiting some of the most popular Tuscan gems, with a sparkling pool, traditional meals & charming hosts

A charming nook for two in pretty Barrington village with a foodie pub mere steps away and Somerset at your feet
