This secluded mansion has an owl barn and a dovecote, and plays host to red kites, herons, barn owls, mallard and many smaller feathered friends; it really is 'for the birds'. Perfect for large families or groups of friends looking for a rural escape, this is a fun-filled countryside haven. Comprising six acres of luxury fittings, high-class amenities and verdant scenery – you could spend days here and never wish to leave.

The active types – usually the kids – are entertained by the dart board or the table tennis in the games room. Away from the splendour of your pastoral palace, there is a golf course, horse riding and cycling routes in the nearby area. 

For those of you that prefer a more relaxing break, fishing spots are an idyllic place to while away the hours. Or pamper yourself at the nearby Red Barn Retreat beauty salon in the village, which offers an array of massages and treatments. But you don't even need to leave your home to indulge in a weekend of grandeur.

A private chef is available to rustle up some top-rate food in the kitchen, giving you a taste of Michelin class dishes. For a more intimate escape, you can keep things low-key with homemade food and drinks in the cosy living room.

This beautiful home ticks every box when it comes to a romantic place to stay. It’s tucked away in the countryside – but close enough to pubs and restaurants to be practical – so the views are glorious. You can spend your time curled up in front of the log burner, or sipping champers in the hot tub on the balcony.

The house is an eight-minute drive to the town of Thame. It’s at the foot of the Chilterns, so if you fancy stretching your legs there are lots of walks for you to enjoy. Otherwise you can spend your time strolling around the town, shopping in the markets that are held several times a week, and admiring the medieval, Georgian and Victorian architecture. 

If you’re anything like us, though, you’ll find it hard to tear yourselves away from this home. Your every need is catered for here so you’ll be in the lap of luxury. Open up the bi-fold doors to the garden in summer and dine alfresco, enjoying the outdoor space. Soak away your troubles in the magnificent bathtub, before slipping between the softest sheets. You’ll never want to leave.

Welcome to a rural retreat that serves up not only the perfect idyllic location, surrounded by fields but also bags of style and comfort. There's nothing rustic about this place, with underfloor heating, window walls and a high-end kitchen and bathroom. A modern oak barn that feels private and secluded, it's the ideal space to get away from it all and enjoy a slower pace of life.

Start your day with coffee at the breakfast bar, and decide between a long walk in the Chilterns and exploring the nearby towns and villages (we recommend the market town of Thame, just an eight-minute drive away). But if you're here to go completely off the radar for a few days, that's fine too – there's nothing stopping you from lounging in the garden hammock all day, soaking in the private hot tub and streaming your favourite shows on TV. And as the sun begins to set, light the barbecue and enjoy your meal on the patio, before heading up to the balcony for the best view of the stars before bed.

The building in which this apartment sits has had many functions in its near-two-century history — straw hat factory, corn merchants and estate agents to name a few. Today, however, you'll find a gloriously contemporary home that'll help you have an exemplary stay in Dunstable.

As you look around for the first time, you'll feel instantly at peace, something to do with the soothing greys used throughout. In the living room, a pair of purple sofas, parquet flooring and the chandelier make for a classy space in which to unwind, while the sleek corner kitchen is plenty big enough for cooking up special dinners.

As is the case with many period properties, there's an inordinate amount of natural light from the tall (triple glazed) windows — what else were you to do before the widespread introduction of electric lighting? — but you can also head down to the building's communal courtyard for your fix of Vitamin D, too. There's seating and a table, as well as free Pashley Cycle hire for the duration of your stay.

In local Dunstable, there are enough restaurants and cafes to keep you going, and there's a wealth of attractions that are easily reached nearby. London is only an hour away by train, but slightly closer to home, the Chiltern Hills AONB is rich with walking routes and historic sites — Ashridge Estate is twenty minutes' drive, for instance.

Hang on to Your Hat

Private Dryer

Sauna

Single-Level Home

With a prime position on Dunstable's High Street, this apartment in a 19th-century building is a peaceful enclave away from the hustle and bustle of urban life.

Step inside and you're greeted by an interior dominated by cleansing shades of white and muted greys, with only the odd houseplant and piece of artwork adding a little colour and character. Stylish parquet flooring sits underfoot, while the glossy kitchen is a triumph of minimalist design. 

The home gets plenty of natural light from the tall triple glazed windows on either side of the space, but if you want to feel the sunshine on your skin, you also have the option of heading out to the building's communal courtyard, which has seating and a table, plus free cycle hire for you to explore.

Being right in the centre of town, there are plenty of cafes and restaurants lying nearby in case you're not in the mood to cook. Even though it's possible to get into London in around an hour on the train, there's a wealth of beautiful countryside around the home, too — Dunstable Downs and Whipsnade Estate are only five minutes' drive, for example.

Nestled away in rural Oxfordshire, you'll find this modern manor home that's sure to make any family get-together an unforgettable one. Everything feels super-sized here, from the generous bedrooms and sleek white kitchen complete with an island to the two separate living rooms. The design is rustic-inspired without feeling dated in any way, especially the bold print wallpaper and natural-themed artwork. Out through the glass doors, there's a large lawn, alfresco seating and even a hot tub, so you can truly soak up the tranquillity of these parts. There are two National Trust sites that can be reached in under ten minutes' drive, while the Warburg Nature Reserve takes sixteen minutes in the car. For a change of pace at any time, the town of Henley-on-Thames is fourteen minutes' drive away, where you'll find independent shops and riverside pubs.

Outdoor Fireplace / Firepit

This country cottage is located in the picturesque Chilterns and offers uninterrupted views of the surrounding countryside. An eclectic decor with colourful furnishings and bold patterns perfectly complements the historic fabric of this old home – it’s certainly unique. Younger children are well catered for here with a sandpit, swings and climbing frame in the two acre garden, and books and toys in the house. Nearby, you’ll be able to enjoy walks in the Chiltern Hills, and Henley-on-Thames, famous for its annual regatta and Henley Festival, is just a three-mile drive away.

The Buttercup Cottage

Trash Compactor

Balcony / Patio

Pretty as a picture, this period townhouse in the heart of Henley is just the ticket if you're looking for a quintessential English home. Set over three storeys and packed with character, it's a charming address that's rustic on the ground floor and more elegant on the upper levels.

Downstairs, the bare floorboards, botanical artwork and artfully weathered wood furnishings lend the feel of a country pile, and there's no shortage of natural light thanks to the huge skylights that line the ceiling at the far end of the space. The glass doors that sit underneath lead out to a green courtyard complete with seating and a barbecue — talk about being ready for summer.

Back inside, the boot room with a shower is perfect if you're thinking of heading into the Chiltern Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty at any point — less than five minutes' drive away, by the way — while the snug at the front of the house and the tub in the master bedroom are lovely places to rest sore limbs.

It's fair to say that you'll have everything on your doorstep here. Just three minutes' walk to the banks of the River Thames, there are also shops, restaurants and cafes aplenty, but — best of all — the host has an agreement with the pub next door which can provide room-service food and drink during your stay. Why not take the night off washing up?

Babes In Toyland

Picture a quiet village in the Chiltern Hills, with a gorgeous redbrick house, clematis scaling its exterior and a bloom of white hydrangea to greet you upon entry. Fortunately, it’s not too good to be true, you’ll find this idyllic escape on the cusp of Sonning Common. Inside, it’s a sophisticated blend of modern touches and traditional country style, with carefully restored original timber beams for added charm. A light, bright kitchen gives way to the acre of gardens—the real star of the show. While the little ones are enthralled by the play area and the big kids are practicing their swings at the golf net, start up the wood-fired pizza oven or go apple picking in the fruit orchard. On balmy Thursday evenings during the summer, there’s a tractor trailer pub crawl but if you fancy staying closer to home, you’ll find a cosy inn just across the road. 

The Lark Ascending

Free Parking

Dating back to the 1800s, this Grade II-listed barn is now a comfortable home-from-home. Underfloor heating keeps toes warm for visits during the cooler months, and the indoor climbing wall and gym equipment will keep active types occupied. When the sun does shine, there’s a dining table and chairs on the decking for alfresco lunches. The Chiltern Hills are on the doorstep, and the Black Lion pub is a fifteen-minute walk away. If you’d like to swap the countryside for some hustle and bustle, High Wycombe is reached in less than twenty minutes by car.


Chilterns Charm

Piano

One of the many barn conversions peppered across the British countryside, this home is a fine example of the great sense of space and light that's typical of the very best of these former agricultural buildings.

Behind the front door, you'll find no clue as to the property's prior life – only stark white walls, shiny wooden floors and a super-sleek kitchen complete with a huge island that would happily slot into the most contemporary of city apartments. 

When it comes to keeping guests entertained, the pool table will help rainy afternoons fly by, while the large patio with a barbecue and trampoline will come in handy when the sun makes an appearance.

If you're lucky with the forecast, there are plenty of riverside walking routes in the local area and the historic town of Windsor with its famous castle is only ten minutes away in the car, too.

Nom de Plume

Despite being tucked away on the outskirts of Burnham village, it’s worth noting that this historic home is situated by the side of an – albeit fairly quiet – road. Although both cosy and capacious – featuring five bedrooms as well as separate breakfast, dining and sitting rooms – we’ll bet it’s this home’s four-poster bedroom and en-suite marble bathroom you’ll be fighting over. Nevertheless, in our opinion, the walled garden is the real showstopper – perfect for watching the kids play while enjoying alfresco drinks in the sun. Under an hour from London, this home’s location makes it ideal for daytrips to Windsor, Legoland and the Thames Valley.

Secret Garden Games

This home located just outside of Maidenhead is certainly one of the more pared-back properties in our collection, but it's so well-executed that we felt compelled to include it.

The ivory walls, shiny wooden floors and large windows combine together to make the interior feel bright and inviting. while there's plenty of sleek black surface space in the horseshoe-shaped kitchen to whip up family-sized feasts. Out through the French doors, there's a garden that runs around three sides of the house that could very easily be the site of summer lawn games.

The centre of Maidenhead sits about seven minutes' drive away when you fancy a meal out or a trip to the theatre. In the other direction, walking routes in the Chiltern Hills AONB can be reached in a similar amount of time.

Ebony & Ivory

Private Pool

Tennis Court

If you’re in search of a quintessential countryside escape, look no further than this traditional manor house. Nestled in an immaculate garden, there’s a private swimming pool, a tennis court and a terrace with a barbecue. Inside, the rooms are just as enticing with a choice of cosy reception rooms, a roaring fire, a study and eight elegant bedrooms. And if you’re looking to make your stay extra special, your host is on hand to help organise sweet extras like private chefs, hampers and yoga sessions. You’ll also be spoiled for choice when it comes to countryside fun. From here, it’s just a short stroll to the nearest pub and there are plenty of farm shops and hiking trails within easy reach. 

Chalford Manor

Blender

Breakfast Included

Part of the historic Estate of Dorney Court, this timber-framed house dates back to the sixteenth century and is a magical blend of heritage and modernity.

The former great hall is emblematic of this. The thirty-foot-high ceilings remain, as do the wooden beams in the vaults, but there have been a few recent additions, from the glitzy chandelier and bovine-themed artwork to the huge kitchen complete with a range cooker. Elsewhere, you'll find two wood burners and an open fire, so guests will never be anything other than toasty. Plus, there's a range of vintage beds in the sleeping quarters, which bring a dash of aristocratic glamour to your slumber.

Surrounding the property are some large grounds with stables and English village life awaits just beyond the boundaries, with Dorney Common and the home of the London 2012 Olympics rowing events, Dorney Lake, only eight minutes' walk away. If you want to work up a hunger beforehand, there are some pretty walking routes running alongside the River Thames, which can be reached in about twenty minutes from the home, plus a pub and bakery taking barely two minutes' walk.

A Day at the Regatta

A five-minute walk from the heart of Henley-on-Thames, where you’ll find independent shops and eateries, this home couldn’t be more ideally located. If you fancy stretching your legs, the Chiltern Hills are a short drive away. Back at the pad, there’s a well-equipped kitchen for dining in and comfortable bedrooms for a good night's sleep. Outside is a courtyard with a snug – your host provides blankets, making it a lovely spot to enjoy an alfresco cup of tea or a glass of something bubbly all year round.

The King's Repose

Just outside of Oxford, this two-storey village home is a comfortable base from which to explore the surrounding area. With three seating areas, you'll find plenty of space to yourself here should you need it, while the main open-plan living area is perfect for coming together over drinks and food. Oxford is easily accessible here, being only 5 miles away, and closer to home you'll find a range of eateries, shops and pubs within walking distance, along with picturesque country walks.

Oxbridge Oaks

This lovely flat in Rotherfield Greys is a dream come true for amblers, with woodland walks, cycling trails and bridleways practically on your doorstep. A haven for cyclists and ramblers alike, you can store your bikes securely in the garage at night. We can't think of a better spot to switch off and unplug – after all, who'd want to think of anything else when you could be soaking up the fresh air and admiring the bluebells from your own terrace? It's the perfect spot to sit back and relax with a cup of tea in the morning or a Pimm's come evening and relish in the peaceful garden. And trust us – that blissful feeling is pretty hard to beat.

When you're not roaming around the countryside, make yourself comfortable in the charming living area. With squishy sofas, well-thumbed books and a table perfectly placed in the bay window, it's the definition of cosy. You'll find plenty of cookware in the kitchen to rustle up whatever you fancy, be it scrummy baked goods or mouth-watering roasts. Or wander over to the village pub for dinner and drinks – a short walk over the fields will bring you to The Malsters Arms, a recently-refurbished traditional country pub warmly hosted by Brian and his son Ben. Next door and well worth a visit is St Nicholas Church which featured on the show "Who Do You Think You Are" in early 2022.

Speaking of location, you're in a prime spot to explore Henley-on-Thames – it's about five minutes by car (and an hour on foot). Head there for independent boutiques, delicious restaurants and walks along the river. The Mill at Sonning is a short eighteen-minute drive away, an ideal day out for any thespians. Also worth a visit is the Grey Court National Trust, easily reached on foot. 

Your host Anne provides small maps of the area and can suggest some great walking routes for you to explore, having recently organised a 3 hour circular walk crossing the National Trust land and the Fleming Estate. Of particular note are the walks around Nettlebed, after which Anne highly recommends grabbing a toasted bite at the Cheese Shed.

Rooftop Terrace

There’s a bit of magic at this home. It’s a windmill tower that dates back to the 1700s and has been carefully renovated into a fabulous romantic escape for two. You’ll enter the windmill via an oak door located on a grass roof and from there make your way up a stone walled stairwell to the second floor bedroom suite. Next floor up is a kitchen with everything you need to rustle up some tasty food. At the top of the tower, there's a lounge with panoramic views across three counties. When you’re not admiring the views or enjoying a drink outside, you might drive into Oxford or to nearby Blenheim Palace. 

The Windmill Tower

You’ll find this cosy apartment on a typically Tudor-style street in the idyllic Henley-on-Thames. Step out the front door and you’re on a charming road lined with boutique shops and cafes as bunting adorns the lamp-posts. It’s a three-minute stroll to the river, where the Royal Regatta takes place annually, and cruises drift up and down year-round. 

Aside from the excellent location, we love the comfortable and cosy interiors here, too. A big bay window bathes the living room in natural light and comfy leather and velvet sofas await weary legs at the end of the day. The original fireplace and small book library add a homely touch to the place, while quirky pieces like the cowhide rug and printed wallpaper add a contemporary feel. When you grow peckish, the kitchen is a vision of modern convenience, with all the bits and pieces you need to cook every meal of the day. Or, head out to the restaurants and pubs of Henley – you’re right in the heart of town after all.

A Royal Regatta

We love the views from the large kitchen of this home’s courtyard garden with its tranquil water feature. Ideal for families or friends, there’s a snug complete with comfy sofas, woollen throws and a log burner for the cooler nights. On the first floor, there’s another living space, traditionally furnished, and a study – perfect if you need to work while away. Out and about, there’s a fantastic selection of eateries on your doorstep, and the town has a cinema, theatre, museum, antique shops and many boutiques. Also, within walking distance of this home, you’ll find the River Thames and the Thames Path.

Garden / Courtyard

Sitting slap bang in the middle of Henley-on-Thames, this four-person mews home is brimming with charm. Complete with a sunny patio, the modern pad has everything you need for a memorable stay in this pretty riverside town.

Enjoy continental breakfast alfresco using ingredients provided by your hosts – they can also arrange fridge fills and food delivery so you can settle in from the moment you arrive. Sink into the deep and inviting sofa, the French doors thrown open so you can feel the summertime breeze drifting in. Staying during the cooler months? It doesn't get cosier than this abode, where you can spend snug evenings in front of the flat-screen TV.

You're just three minutes from the waterfront here – enjoy leisurely strolls along the river before followed by a trip to one of the many traditional pubs nearby. When it comes time to return home, you won't have far to go before you can crawl into one of the comfy double beds and enjoy a peaceful night's sleep.

Good Mews

Cloaked in soothing tones, this understated Eton home is the perfect setting for a relaxing staycation, situated within easy reach of Windsor’s most popular attractions. Whether you’re here for the town’s namesake castle or simply to escape the hustle and bustle of city life, you can’t do much better than this gorgeous, family abode which comes complete with its own private garden, perfect for letting little ones and furry friends roam free while you savour a well-deserved cuppa in the fresh air. 

Start your morning with a peaceful stroll along the river, then come home and refuel with a pastry or two at the stylish breakfast bar before setting off for a day of exploration with your fellow guests. With Legoland, Eton College, and Windsor’s famous Long Walk at your fingertips, there’s something for everyone here – though we wouldn’t blame you if all you wanted to do was find a nearby pub and unwind over a cold pint of your favourite beer. Either way, when it’s time to head back, you’ll find everything you need for a comfortable stay, so why not treat yourself to a cosy evening in? After all, that Netflix show isn't going to binge itself.

Sunsets & Swan Feathers

Perched in a serene setting, this gorgeous house in Henley-on-Thames provides an idyllic suburban escape amidst nature without being too far away from the hustle of central London (a forty-minute drive away). Set in Oxfordshire, the location is as blissful as they come and the perfect location for country walks and a quintessentially English experience. Step outside into the home's stunning backyard where you'll find a weeping willow romanticising the garden scene. With plenty of seating areas to choose from – enjoy sunny afternoons out on the patio by the fire pit, at the alfresco dining table or even swaying on the rope-tire swing on the lawn. Since the inside is just as lush as the outside, you'll be spoilt for choice when hanging out at home here. From the light and airy kitchen-diner with panoramic views of the garden through the French windows to the cosy living room with snuggly interiors centred around the wood log burner. We particularly love the cute little desk nook found under the stairs – it offers an extra little secluded spot to get down to some work when needed. And when you're all worked out – The Greyhound Pub (run by Anthony Warrell Thompson) is conveniently situated just a two-minute drive or a short walk away from your front door. The quaint cobble-stoned town of Henley-on-Thames also makes its mark on the sporting scene by hosting The Henley Royal Regatta – a world-famous rowing competition that sees thousands of visitors arrive to spectate more than 200 races (including Olympians among the participants). Frankly, we couldn't think of a more perfect base from which to enjoy the five-day sporting extravaganza. As from here, you'll lap up both a relaxing holiday and the buzz of the iconic event in full swing. 

In Full Swing

Bathed in natural light, decked out with comfortable furniture and blessed with a spacious open-plan layout, this flat in the centre of Maidenhead is perfect for anyone looking to explore the best of Berkshire.

A favourite among the Edwardian upper classes who didn't have the time or inclination to travel as far as Bath, Maidenhead is on the up and up. The soon-to-open Elizabeth line will also make getting into London a breeze, with a forty-minute train ride landing you at Tottenham Court Road.

Meanwhile, a visit to the nearby village of Bray is renowned for its Michelin-starred restaurants. In addition to Heston Blumenthal's Fat Duck and The Hind's Head, there's also Alain Roux's The Waterside Inn – you can't go wrong with any of them. 

Skindles

Whether you're visiting Henley for the famous regatta, or simply want to get to know the area, this apartment is a great place to call home during your stay. Treat yourself to a wonderful trip to this pretty English town, and you'll fall in love with its unique charms. 

The apartment is modern and cosy, with a welcoming ambiance that invites you to kick off your shoes and get comfortable. Sink into a buttery leather sofa with a cup of tea, or head outside onto the private terrace to sip a sundowner in the fresh air when the weather is warm. And, the sleek kitchen is a great place to prepare your favourite dishes when you get hungry – why not cook up a traditional Sunday roast to round off the weekend? 

From here, the River Thames is just a short stroll away – wander along the banks and admire the quaint scenery. If you fancy a round of golf then there's a course just outside the town where you can practice your swing. And, you can easily drive into the Chiltern Hills if you fancy doing some hillwalking, before enjoying a pint at one of the local pubs. 

The Boat Race

This characterful home feels as if it’s straight out of a period drama, with exposed beams and shopfront windows. That’s not to say it’s old-fashioned — the interiors are bright and airy, more country chic than dingy pub. Though if it’s pints you’re after, the Bull next door is a great spot for a lazy afternoon. Or settle into the private courtyard, where there are no queues for the next round. A mix of double and twin rooms, with the cute addition of bunk beds, makes this place ideal for families. Just note that if you’re hitting maximum capacity, two of you will need to cosy up on the sofa bed in the living room — but if you ask us, it’s all part of the fun.

The Riverside Refuge

This might not be one of the prettiest homes in the riverside town of Henley-on-Thames, but it's a base that's solidly reliable for those who will be spending most of their time out in surrounding Oxfordshire.

The interior itself is bright and airy, thanks to the large windows and the open-concept layout in the main living area that allows natural light to flow about the space. When it comes to design, you won't be wowed, but equally, there's nothing offensive about the neutral colour palette and simple furnishings. We do reserve praise, however, for the kitchen, which is both large and well-equipped enough for whipping up hearty suppers.

When you want to see a little more of the locale, the banks of the River Thames take ten minutes to reach on foot and the Thames Path continues in both directions. The Chiltern Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty can be reached in three minutes' drive and offers a wealth of walking routes and stately homes to explore.

Stroke of Inspiration

If you're in thrall to the English countryside but not so keen on the quintessentially rustic cottages that tend to be found there, this contemporarily styled home in a small Oxfordshire village may well appeal to you.

Rather than flagstone tiles and dusty ceiling beams, this home's design is dominated by stark white walls, smart wooden floors and large windows bringing in bountiful amounts of natural light. The kitchen and its sleek surfaces are a thing of beauty, as are the chic bathrooms complete with a few svelte tubs in which to luxuriate after a day out in the great outdoors.

Speaking of which, the address benefits from a large garden with a view of local farmland, as well as a terrace with seating from which to appreciate the tranquillity. If the weather's particularly good, you can fire up the barbecue for an alfresco banquet, but if the forecast isn't playing ball, you can make the minute's walk over to the local pub for a roast dinner.

The home actually sits within the Chiltern Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, so guests can be assured that a wealth of scenic walking routes can be discovered nearby. The riverside town of Henley-on-Thames is only ten minutes' drive away too if you fancy a change of scenery.

Rural Yet Refined

This beautiful award winning cottage has romantic country getaway written all over it. There are lots of cute touches in the design, like the vintage suitcase repurposed as a coffee table and the gold birds on the wall, but what's perhaps most impressive is the sheer amount of space at your disposal. The long kitchen has plenty of surface space for rustling up a hearty supper, while the shower cabin is easily big enough for two. Out the front door, there are plenty of spaces to sit outside during mild spring mornings, including an enclosed private garden which is dog friendly (the property accepts dogs). There are stunning views overlooking The Ridgeway National Trail from the cottage and you can follow this historic route through the Chiltern chalk hills. The glorious city of Oxford is just thirty-five minutes away by car and there are plenty of National Trust properties like Waddesdon and Hughenden Manor to visit close by.

Copper Beech

Set over five acres of beautiful Oxfordshire farmland, this cosy loft home is a lovely choice for a romantic getaway to the countryside. You'll be surrounded by landscaped gardens and unspoilt views towards the Goring Gap. Plus, Oxford lies just twenty minutes away by train while London Paddington is an hour from your door. Additionally, there's a pub within easy walking distance for effortless suppers after busy days spent traversing the fields. It's worth noting that babies in their own Moses basket are welcome to stay, though pets are not allowed due to the farmland animals.
