Make the most of the New York state countryside from this home in Amenia, which is within driving distance of some excellent hikes, such as Macedonia Brook State Park (twenty minutes in the car). It’s also only thirty minutes from the Catamount ski resort, meaning there’s plenty on offer for active guests. Or watch a movie at the drive-in cinema, a two-minute ride away. Back at this home itself, you’ll find a stylish space to return to after a day of exploring the surrounding area. Whether you’re sitting around the fire pit in the yard, lounging on the sofa as a group or enjoying a family meal, the spacious home is ideal for socialising. We love the vintage pieces offering a nod to the area’s agricultural roots. What’s more, there's two laptop-friendly workspaces, making it easy to work from home.

Built in 1800, Hitchbrook is a quintessential New England home. Surrounded by farmland and rolling hills, this home is a private getaway for those looking for a pastoral retreat. Think rustic but sophisticated; evenings in front of fireplace or relaxing in the den playing games and singing-along to the piano. There are some great hikes nearby – the hills of Hitchcock Corners and across from Mill Brook are wonderful for walking. For the cyclists, there are plenty of bike trails to get stuck into. We’d recommend picking up some supplies from the neighbouring villages of Millbrook and Lakeville, and crossing the border into upstate New York for a picnic.

Welcome Hamper

There are a lot of adjectives we could throw at this home in The Berkshires; cosy, darling, divine. But none of them really do it justice. This place is made for taking it back to analogue and spending quality time together, around the stand-up piano, playing a board game in the sunny second sitting room, or pausing for a moment in the secret reading nook. A low, wooden ceiling, exposed brick wall and a wood-burning stove in the main lounge provide the ‘cosy’, while the plush velvet armchairs and antique dining table provide the ‘divine’. The bistro seating in the kitchen comes with a view of Butternut Mountain. Plus, there are several laptop-friendly desks designed for remote working and a dedicated office for video calls.

Outside, (well, almost outside) you’ve got an enclosed front porch with deck chairs for sunny days and a first-floor balcony begging for an evening tipple. In the surrounding greenery of the garden, let the kids run free on the lawn before gathering the group around the fire pit for a spot of stargazing at night.

You’re a five-minute drive from the artisan shops, local markets and restaurants of Great Barrington here, and skiing on Butternut Mountain is a short drive away too.

Guests looking for outdoor adventures can explore the surrounding landscape by foot or by bike, and couples and small groups will enjoy the romantic views and secluded location. The covered porch is the perfect spot for reading and bathing in sunlight, while the patio is ideal come summertime. Other features to admire are the unique ornaments collected by the lovely host, Minetta.

This riverfront home is the kind of getaway we dream of every day. The infinity pool and views of the Hudson River are magnificent – just imagine how calming it is to wake up to views of this calibre every day. Inside, it feels incredibly warm and welcoming, making it perfect for family gatherings and spending time with your loved ones. The screened porch was extremely inviting, it’s the kind of place that inspires you to slow down. While there’s a lot to love about this home, we couldn’t get enough of the garden – manicured and green, it also boasts an infinity pool.

Paid Parking On Premises

This calming home-from-home is close enough to nip into the city on the subway, yet sits in a quiet and friendly neighbourhood in Astoria, Queens. Surrounded by leafy green parks, independent coffee shops, and a host of world cuisine eateries, it's the perfect spot for those looking to see the sights of NYC with a comforting place to call home outside of the concrete jungle. Inside, from the moment you enter the home, there's a real sense of space, with an open concept floor plan and clever design. Natural light floods into the living room through the windows and neutral tones of grey, white and moody blue create a soothing space to relax in after a day wandering the city. The sleek white kitchen comes with an equally elegant dining room that's perfect for big American breakfasts while the dedicated work desk accommodates those in town on business. Whether you're strolling through the local green spots, living it up in the city, or in-and-out with work, this charming apartment is a rare pocket of calm withdrawn from the hustle and bustle.

If you need a base for a friendly get-together or a family reunion, then look no further than this abode in the heart of Westchester County. Thanks to the games room, gym and cinema room, there’s never a dull moment here – and that’s just what’s inside the home. Outside, guests have access to a private pool, basketball hoop, and terrace, ideal for drinks at sundown. In terms of location, you’re an hour’s drive from New York City. Should you need help with planning your itinerary, your host provides a handy digital guide. 

A Summer's Eve

Heated Pool

Outdoor Shower

Not too far from the bright lights of New York City, this striking and stylish home sits near the beaches of Westhampton and among the protected marshlands of Long Island. The house itself is a modern twist on the traditional clapboard homes the area is famous for, with wraparound decks looking into the treetops to the rear and plenty of sliding doors allowing the indoors to seamlessly slip into the outdoor space. Downstairs, the living space is all about its designer leather sofa and chairs, as well as a large glass dining table. There's an excellent kitchen, with everything you'll need to cook at home, and even a den upstairs, complete with a sofa and office desk for working remotely. Outdoors, the huge deck is the star of the show, with seating areas, an alfresco dining spot, a cabana and a swimming pool. It's just a ten-minute drive to Westhampton beach to paddle in the Atlantic Ocean or visit one of the many excellent bars or restaurants.

Long Island Iced Tea

Once an 1890s carriage house, this home has been designed for country living for a small family. Low timber ceilings and hardwood floors retain the barn-like element, but instead of hay bales, you’ve got comfortable king-size beds for grown-ups and secret sleeping spots for kids in the mezzanine above the loft. Huge windows in the living room let in the sunshine, streaming through the trees, and in the evening, there’s a wood-burning stove to keep the chill at bay. The open-plan kitchen has a large double fridge, kitchen island and plenty of storage space for all the fresh goodies from the nearby farmer’s market. You’re in the middle of nature’s bounty here, after all. The farm is at the foot of the Catskills, away from it all, so you can spend your days immersed in the wilderness of hiking and biking trails. Stick close to home and wander the acres of farm grounds, through woodlands, past ponds or just the short dander to the farm’s swimming pool.

If you’re in search of a coastal adventure or a relaxing beachfront escape, this home delivers the perfect solution. Nestled in Stonington village, you’ll be spoiled by beautiful views, an expansive two acres of lush grounds, a private pool and a tennis court. And while there’s everything you could need to enjoy the great outdoors, the rooms are just as inviting with a home theatre, a sauna, a wine cellar and plenty of socialising space across the living and dining rooms. You might find it hard to leave this peaceful sanctuary, but it’s just a short stroll to the nearest restaurants and shops.


Coastal Rhapsody

EV Charger

Sitting alongside an enchanting creek, this cabin is a tranquil haven with a lot to offer. From the hot tub and wood fired sauna to the beautiful views, this is the perfect setting for a refreshing and romantic retreat. There’s also a barbecue, a pizza oven and a fire pit for magical night’s under the stars. Inside, the rooms are just as welcoming thanks to the cosy living room with a fire, the serene bedroom and the games room. Well behaved pets are welcome and you’ll find plenty to explore in the area. Follow nearby trails, discover charming towns and explore Lake Colgate and Hunter Mountain. 

The Creekside Cabin

Breakfast Included

Just steps away from a private community beach, Borne Back was designed by its architect owner to provide a comfortable contemporary home in a perfectly quiet spot in the Hamptons. On a full acre plot next to Gardiner's Bay, it's surrounded by tall trees. Inside, it's modern, bright and relaxing, with subtle nods to its coastal location. Cook in the state-of-the-art kitchen, barbecue outside on the terrace or screen a movie on the home cinema setup. There's ample outdoor seating and a delightful, heated private pool to enjoy, and in the evenings, you could always treat your loved ones to a performance on the home's drumkit. We love the huge, sociable sofa in the living room and the first-floor sun terrace in particular but nothing beats the location of this place. A matter of metres from the beach and surrounded by quiet streets perfect for walks and bike rides, it's also within easy reach of several shops and restaurants.

Borne Back

Reminiscent of something from a Laura Ingalls Wilder novel, this picturesque cabin is a haven surrounded by peace and quiet and lush woodland. Although you can count on a serene stay here, you’re also just a five-minute drive from the quaint town of Old Chatham where you can find some local amenities, or a ten-minute drive from Chatham Town, which has several excellent restaurants and plenty of charming local shops. Perfect for a cosy couple or a small family, this home can welcome up to four guests, though two of them will have to sleep on the sofa bed. Spend your time reading on the porch, playing lawn games, and hiking in the area, before coming home to whip up a delicious meal in the fully equipped kitchen and settling down for a great night’s sleep in the King bed. Thanks to its picturesque setting, The Great Frontier is the ultimate escape for those who want to unwind and recharge in the comfort of nature.

The Great Frontier

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.

A nature lover's dream atop a 100-acre historic farm in North Stonington, away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. This home offers a one-of-a-kind stay – spend your mornings in the fresh air helping the hosts tend to the farm animals in the tranquil setting to feel at one with nature – from feeding chickens and collecting eggs to brushing the horses and rooster calls here and there, but it's all part of the experience.

The home itself is chic and stylish, yet homey. Mornings are best spent sipping coffee on your patio while admiring the mountain and pasture vistas of your host's Texas longhorn cattle and horses. The living area is accented with slate grey throughout, while the brown provides an earthy sense to make you feel even more connected to your environment, and is ideal for cosying up after a long day of wandering through the unending greenery. We love that the second bedroom has an art studio for letting your creativity flow, where you can paint a stunning picture of the grounds you're staying on, as well as skylights, so you can fall asleep beneath the stars.

When you want to splash around in the sea, take a twenty-minute trip to Misquamicut State Beach, fantastic for the kids to spend a day at the beach while you sit back and relax. Alternatively, drive twenty minutes to the beautiful seaport village of Mystic and explore the foodie haven featuring the area's local meats, organic produce and seafood for a tantalising supper. Stop by Jonathan Edwards winery on the way to pick up a bottle of Pinot Grigio to enjoy back at the house around the fire pit with blankets wrapped around, or check out the dedicated bar area in the living room and craft your own cocktails. There's plenty of North Stonington's rich agricultural heritage to explore nearby, including cattle ranches, organic farms and vineyards (fifteen minutes away by car). 

Mystic Countryside Farm

This delightful cottage, nestled in the picturesque mountains of New York State’s famous Shawangunk Ridge, is an ideal spot for a cosy country escape. As the last property before the entrance to a protected nature reserve, this home offers unmatched tranquillity and proximity to nature.

The homely interior draws inspiration from the ancient woodlands and gorgeous landscape outside. Wooden floorboards pair with bright houseplants to create an organic and breathable ambience throughout, and there is a charming fireplace set within a stone wall for added cosiness.  The exquisite evergreen kitchen has stylish bar stools that invite you to enjoy quiet, home-cooked dinners, while the plush, deluxe king-sized bed in the bedroom carries the promise of a restful night’s sleep.

The cottage's location offers the best of both worlds – you’ll be able to breathe in the fresh outdoor air on nearby Minnewaska State Park Preserve and wander through its magical trails, safe in the knowledge that all the comforts of modern living are within a fifteen-minute drive away. This is also the best place for rock-climbing and mountain biking – if you like to live dangerously! 


Under The Ridge

Single-Level Home

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

This NYT-featured Catskills home is not quite the cabin it seems to be. What looks like a single storey home from one angle is actually built over a creekside slope, and we think it's one of the most interesting places we've seen for a peaceful stay in the woods. Floor-to-ceiling windows make full use of the region’s scenery, and sliding doors out onto a deck mean you can practically reach out and touch the pines – you can even listen to the rushing waters of the creek from here. Modern and stylish, the design here isn't trying to outshine the views, with wood floors, white walls and a Scandi feel to its furnishings. Two of the bedrooms are on the top floor and have such great views across the canopy you'll think you're staying in a treehouse, while immaculate bathrooms are outfitted with marble, lava stone and Italian Porcelanosa tiles. If you can drag yourself away, head out on hikes, explore the nearby farm shops, or book a meal at a local restaurant – there are several within a short drive. But we recommend making your way to the home's little campfire site, with some hot chocolate and marshmallows, for an evening you'll never forget.

The Edge

Ping Pong Table

It's back to camp at this lakeside home, which has been designed to make the most of its beautiful surroundings. Wooden floorboards, adjoining cabins, folding doors, and outdoor walkways give the sense of being in a giant – and rather quirky – treehouse. First up on your camp agenda will be running wild in the gorgeous grounds. We love the array of activities the spot has on offer, with a barbecue, fire pit, ping pong and foosball tables, kayaks, and a deck to jump straight into the freshwater lake. When you're not exploring the surrounding state parks, the home is full of nooks and crannies to explore. Lounge in the Japanese soaking tub, lie back in an indoor hammock, or watch the sunset from the deck before planning another day of action at this peaceful hideaway.

This Woodstock residence is one for the design-savvy folk. Once a studio belonging to acclaimed realist painter Reginald Marsh, the space has been transformed into a stunning family home. It was proudly featured in Italy's Icon Design Magazine for its attention to detail and considered use of elegant and characterful materials. 

We loved the living space, particularly the expansive ceilings, enormous windows and integration of concrete and wood. Rise and shine to picturesque views of the beautiful garden. Relax on the outdoor day bed, which looks out over the legendary Indian Head mountain ridge, have a picnic by the swimming pond, surrounded by juniper trees and century-old cedars, or follow the burbling stream into the woods. Then later, gather around the fire pit. Whatever you decide to do, this home invites you to slow down the pace in style.

If you'd like to explore further afield, lace-up your boots and take a drive out to a hiking trail  –  the Indian Head Wilderness and the Bluestone Wild Forest are no more than fifteen minutes away.
