Wonder Valley, Twentynine Palms

Escape to this remote studio sanctuary and reconnect with mother nature. This is more than just an unpretentious cabin in the desert – this is a home that invites you to let go of life's complications and to instead find your roots in nature and embrace the bear necessities – pretty much in keeping with the Joshua Tree area surrounding it.

Guerneville, California

Surrounded by redwoods and boasting vertiginous valley vistas, this gorgeous Guerneville home is the ultimate California crib. Featuring a fully equipped kitchen and open plan living cum dining room complete with gas fireplace – think traditional river cabin – and French doors out onto a barbecue, dining and lounging deck, not to mention a hot tub and festoon light strewn relaxation area, this stunning Sonoma County home is truly magical.

Rock 'n' Roll Salamander

• 8 guests

Palm Springs, Riverside County

In one of Palm Springs' most distinctive neighbourhoods, where Elvis and Priscilla honeymooned in 1967, this slice of mid-century architecture has all the hallmarks of the area's defining style. From its stone-clad exterior and atrium entrance to its vaulted ceilings and walls of windows, it's just as cool as it was back in the day.
