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

An understated colonial-style home is the perfect setting for a Northeastern getaway. It's reminiscent of a family heirloom, with history seeping through the walls. Situated on a bluff with views of the Connecticut shoreline, the home sits atop sprawling private acres dotted with centuries-old trees. A typical day here will take you straight back to the carefree life of childhood – gather in the kitchen for pancakes before slipping on your sandals to walk down the lawns to your very own private beach, before spending the evening playing games around the fireplace in a cosy living room. Choose a new bedtime read from the home's library or brainstorm your own novel in the study – perfect for remote workers. Port Jefferson is only a short twelve-minute drive away, and you’d be remiss not to stop at the farmers market and bring back fresh produce to cook, reminding you of the pleasures of a simpler life. 

Hamlet

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

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

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

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

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

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.

Building Bridges

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

Set in the heart of downtown Hudson, this unique home is just a ten-minute walk from the river and around the corner from Warren Street. Whether you're after a peaceful riverside stroll or want to visit one of your host's favourite restaurants, it won't take long for you to get there. After exploring your new neighbourhood, you'll come back to an art-filled home where your attentive host has spared no effort in making it feel welcoming and personal. We love the multi-level porch, with so many cosy spots to enjoy your morning coffee and soak in the sunshine. On mild days, leave the doors open and feel a sweet breeze blowing softly through the house as you work at the antique desk or make afternoon tea in the charming blue kitchen. With a large backyard all for yourself, pick up some local produce on your way back from Warren Street and fire up the grill for a delicious home-cooked dinner under the stars.

Hanging Baskets

A grand townhouse in the middle of Hudson, Venus In Furs is not only a great place for exploring the Catskills and the Hudson Valley, but it’s also a destination in its own right. Whether sinking into the plush Chesterfield, or spending long evenings around the fire pit, you have plenty of options when it comes to relaxation. There’s a serious kitchen as well as a grill, but if you aren’t feeling like cooking yourself, the restaurants start from about a block away, while you can also reach the banks of the river in about ten minutes on foot.
