Located a short walk away from the beach, we thought Saltbush would be a great base for a family or a group of friends looking for a seaside escape. The decor has clean, simple, beachy vibe – it isn’t trying to be wildly innovative or elaborate, but it ties in well with the location, and the space feels comfortable and relaxing. Most importantly, the nearby beach is a private one accessible only to local residents, so you’re guaranteed peace and quiet – a rarity for the Hamptons!

Saltbush

Set within an acre of lush green grounds, this seriously charming home is just a twenty-minute drive from the centre of Sag Harbour - undoubtedly one of New York State's best-kept secrets. This centuries-old seaside village may be known as one of the most family-friendly places in the Hamptons, but its strictly adults-only activities include a visit to the nearby Wölffer Estate vineyards to sample their famed rosé cider. If hitting the many vintage stores in Sag Harbour isn’t on the cards, head out to explore the bay on one of the paddleboards or kayaks provided, by virtue of your own exclusive boat dock. Should that sound a little too energetic, you can also just take a dip in your private pool or luxuriate in the jacuzzi. The home is fresh, cool and contemporary while staying welcoming with warm rattan, bohemian touches, colourful books and art, and a rustic beachy feel. An aperitif on the pretty terrace is a must on balmy nights, or spend an evening around the fire with a movie in the cosy living room.

Long Point

This home sits pretty as an English manor in the countryside of upstate New York, a ten-minute drive from the picturesque town of Pawling. Grecian-style columns greet you on arrival and the striking white facade glows against the verdant green gardens – it sits on 18 acres of land. The gardens are studded with ancient oak trees between perfectly manicured lawns and those that enjoy their privacy can opt to stay in the separate cottage in the grounds.

Dating back to 1840, the interior is an homage to elegance and eloquence. The main lounge, with its big Georgian windows and grand piano, looks out over the gardens. Then there are two further living areas – the garden room with a traditional old fireplace and a library lined with towering bookcases. The kitchen looks as though scullery maids still bustle through, with its hanging pots and farmhouse charm. Though all the appliances are state-of-the-art modern. The huge dining room features a bay window overlooking the gardens and a brick fireplace for chilly evenings.

High Tea & Hedgerows

There are some homes that simply capture your heart from the moment you arrive. And we won’t be surprised if it’s love at first sight when you see this charming Colonial saltbox house. 

Nestled within the Litchfield Hills and surrounded by acres of beautiful gardens, ponds and walking trails, this is the perfect setting to connect with the beauty of nature. Inside, the exposed beams and wooden floors fill this home with a calming presence. It’s the kind of space that inspires you to slow down and savour the luxurious details that make this home unique. And whether you're spending a cosy morning by the fire, cooking in the kitchen or out on the patio, it’s easy to settle in and make this space your own. 

Outside, you’ll find 170 acres of majestic countryside to roam and explore. Wander over bridges, embrace wild swimming and simply soak in the stunning views across the rolling hills. The centre of Litchfield is just a ten–minute drive away where you’ll find a wonderful selection of restaurants and shops for any amenities you might need.

The Golden Dawn

Surrounded by acres of forest, flowing streams, waterfalls and historic ruins, this little cottage welcomes you to experience the natural beauty of the Berkshire mountains. 

Located within a former Shaker settlement, there’s an abundance of charm and character here. From the antiques and art to the snug furnishings and personal touches, the owners have designed this space to enrich your stay with warmth and ease. So whether you’re here for an adventurous escape or for total relaxation, this home welcomes you to enjoy it all in the heart of New Lebanon.

Snuggle up in front of the fire, get cosy with a book, admire the views and gather for heartwarming evenings around the kitchen table. However you spend your time here, every moment promises to be enhanced by the unique spirit of this location. 

From here, it’s just a five-minute drive to the restaurants, shops and antique stores of New Lebanon. And for explorations further afield, you’ll find easy access to the charming villages of New England as well as the Hudson Valley.

A Little Love Note

Originally built in the 1800s as a fisherman’s shanty, this traditional cedar-shingled building has since been restored into a peaceful waterside sanctuary – it's the perfect setting to relax, reflect and listen to the soothing sound of the sea. 

Inside, the owners have honoured the integrity of the space whilst integrating a range of vintage and handcrafted furnishings – each with its own story and tale from travels near and far. The result is a home filled with charm and character. And from the moment of arrival, you’ll want to pause and savour the unique atmosphere of this setting. 

From the New England styling and soft lighting to the mesmerising views and cosy textures, every detail has been considered to enrich your stay with comfort and ease. 

Open the doors from the living room and you’ll find the floating deck inviting you to embrace the fresh salty air with a quiet morning coffee, or later with golden hour drinks. And when the weather draws you back inside, you’ll find the rooms provide a cosy escape – welcoming you to slow down and savour the simplicity of heartwarming conversations, reading, cooking and sharing delicious meals around the table. 

Stepping outside, you’ll find it's just a short walk to the nearest stores and restaurants. Days can be spent on Madaket Beach, walking barefoot in the sand, enjoying lingering picnics and watching the sunset across the horizon. 

Gift of the Sea 

A stay in this charming home is a ticket to private beaches and waterfront access. Enjoy access to an exclusive member’s club here in North Chatham. While anyone can access the famous sands of Cape Cod, you can relish in the exclusive access to three neighbourhood association beaches and beat the summer crowds. Sail or kayak to Pleasant Bay or Nantucket Sound, or head over to Downtown Chatham for golf, fishing and boating. If you’re lucky enough to catch your own dinner, there is plenty of space for everyone to gather around the long dining table and tuck into a fisherman’s feast. With ocean views out over Pleasant Bay, a garden fire pit is perfectly positioned for those gorgeous sunsets fading over the horizon. Adorned with flags, fringed by picket fences, and with rockers on the porch, the garden certainly sells an American dream. Arrive home from a day at the beach to a smoking barbecue on the lawn, that dream is your reality. 

A Fine Catch

Look out for artists, poets and musicians in the area around this home – it’s located in Springs, arguably the coolest town in the Hamptons. In the past, it’s played host to visionaries like Jackson Pollock and Lee Krasner, Willem de Kooning, Kurt Vonnegut, and John Steinbeck. Luckily, the home’s bright, colourful design lives up to its surroundings, with patterned throws and bedspreads, quirky artwork and unique furniture. From the moment you step foot inside, you'll feel right at home. There are 1.5 acres of land to explore out the back, with plenty of options for alfresco dining, whether you choose to relax with a barbecue under the wisteria or socialise on the patio. On hot summer days, go for a swim in the crystal clear pool, or lie back with a book on a sun lounger nearby. As if this wasn't enough, it’s also perfectly located for making the most of Springs, with the sea just a five-minute cycle away, and coastal walks and surf beaches within easy reach. On Saturdays, amble over to the Farmer’s Market to purchase fresh produce to whip up a feast. All in all, this is a delightful stay for young families or a group of old friends coming together. 

Sunflower Summer

For the ultimate Montauk escape with style and character in abundance, this fisherman's cottage has you covered. Flamingo-pink shutters and the front door set the scene for a stay that's thoughtfully stylish, charming and quirky – a blend of boho and rustic that's sophisticated and easy to love. The white-beamed ceiling, pink accents and mix of raw wood and design pieces makes for a look you'll want to replicate in your own home. This cottage just feels very at home in this neighbourhood, with a colourful living room drenched in natural light and a surf-shack motif in the bedroom, complete with surfboards and dreamcatchers adorning the walls. If the personal touches didn't already make this home, the location definitely does – you're a five-minute walk from popular eateries and Downtown Montauk, not to mention Fort Pond, the train station and nearby beach.

Long Story Short

Escape to Springs, East Hamptons for a magical little visit to Wisteria Delight. The charming cottage sits on several acres of land and features a picturesque deck overgrown with wisteria, a private gunite pool, an outdoor fire pit and a large open floor plan. The studio-style home welcomes up to three guests and one toddler, making it the perfect getaway for a small family. It is worth noting, however, that this home does not have a kitchen, so you'll need to eat out, but with such a great selection of laid-back restaurants in the area, you won't run out of options. Best of all, you're just five minutes from the sea and if you rent bicycles, you can be at the nearest ocean beach in just fifteen minutes. Whether you want to make the most of your cosy home or spend your time out and about, there is a ton to see and do here.

Wisteria Delight

This Hamptons home does island life the modern way. In the mornings, hit up the local farmers’ markets and seafood shops. Then, in the evenings, cook your fresh fish in the state-of-the-art open kitchen. From the inter-connected Sonos surround sound system to the marble fireplace, vibrant art-works and comfortable furnishings – it's the fine details that set this home apart from the rest.

We love how close this home is to the beaches but when you’ve had enough of salty water, take a dip in your private heated pool. The beautifully landscaped patio garden surrounded by the local greenary offers a peaceful spot to enjoy some much-needed vitamin D. Come rain or shine, this spot presents a quiet sanctuary away from city life – and one that you can enjoy by spending quality time together as a group. 

When you are ready to venture out, spend your days cycling around the island. With scenic spots all around, Shelter Island invites you to switch off and reconnect with nature through time in a new environment. Ahh, we can smell the fresh air already. 


Ahoy There

This lovely home is an ideal base in the Hamptons. It’s conveniently located on the edge of Napeague State Park and just a two-minute walk from Napeague Bay, with the gorgeous Amagansett Beach only seven minutes away by car. In addition to being in a glorious location, it’s a modern, stylish home that feels oh so welcoming. You’ll never want to leave. 

Beautifully maintained trees and gardens surround the home – it’s a little oasis. When you’re swimming in the heated salt-water pool, it’s impossible to feel stressed, and the same goes for when you’re sipping cocktails on the deck. The grill on the deck is perfect for entertaining alfresco, and the chef’s kitchen inside means that you can really wow your guests. 

The kitchen and living space is the heart of the home and is suitably bright and welcoming. You’ll spend hours here catching up, whether you’re a keen home cook or prefer to hire a private chef to do the hard work. Walls of windows flood the home with light, allowing you to admire the outside space and enjoy the weather, no matter where you are. 

There are bikes at your disposal so you can easily explore the area. When you return home from a day out, there’s nothing better than slipping into the soothing hot tub for a relaxing soak.
