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.

This home's architecture, interiors and colourful prints all share a mid-century modern style, but its woodland surroundings are more Hansel and Gretel than Gilbert and George. In a tiny hamlet in upstate New York, it’s surrounded by mountains, lakes and forest – great for skiers, hikers and wild swimmers alike. The home has several standout features but we love the double-height living area, with its huge windows and cosy fireplace. The galleried landing has a desk in case you need to keep one eye on work while you're away, and the huge deck has a gas barbecue for those long lazy lunches outdoors. While its statement design pieces add interest, it's a homely place too, with a bedroom set up for children, logs provided for the fire, and plenty of books to pick through on the shelves. Just minutes from a choice of state parks, forests, orchards, and wineries, your days will be filled with outdoor adventures – and all just an easy drive from the city.

Just a two-hour drive from New York City, this home in the Poconos is more like a private resort, with an impressive list of amenities and all kinds of entertainment options for a large group. Set less than ten minutes away from scenic Lake Harmony by car, and close to various ski resorts like Jack Frost and Big Boulder Mountain, there are shops and restaurants within a few minutes drive, along with nearby golf courses and a water park.

But that's assuming you'll even want to leave this magnificent home. With four bedrooms, a vast games room, indoor and outdoor pools, a cinema room and a bar, you'll have everything you could need right here. Spend your days lounging by the pool, relaxing in the sauna or indoor hot tub, or playing volleyball in the grounds, while evenings mean film screenings, group barbecues and games of air hockey and pool. And before bed, there's just time for nightcaps around the fire pit.

Immersed in a sanctuary of trees, this rustic cabin invites you to enjoy a serene retreat in the Catskill Mountains. 

Set across five acres and just a six-minute drive from the charming town of Roscoe, there’s everything you could need to feel inspired and renewed by the majestic beauty of this special environment. 

From the atmospheric views to the exceptional styling, every detail has been considered to fill your stay with freedom and ease. And from the moment of arrival, you’ll want to pause and savour the calming simplicity of this space. High ceilings and large windows create a wonderful sense of lightness, while the seamless blend of natural tones reflects the beauty of the surroundings. Step outside and you’ll discover the expansive deck is ideally positioned for a quiet morning coffee, or later with magical evening drinks and stargazing by the welcoming fire pit. 

Follow the mountain road and you’ll find the bustling town of Livingston Manor is just a fifteen-minute drive away. There’s a great selection of cafes, shops and restaurants here, while you’ll also find an abundance of opportunities for hiking and fishing – Roscoe is known as Trout Town, USA. 

Wherever the day takes you, this home provides a constant sense of sanctuary – the perfect setting to light a fire, put on a record and savour the timeless charm of mountain living.

Escape to the Western Catskills for a break surrounded by the rustling of leaves and the calls of birds. This architecturally significant A-frame cabin sits on a secluded plot among the tall trees – a clearing just for you. With nothing to distract you, here you'll be free to hike, spot wildlife, spend time together as a family or even write the novel you've been planning for years.

Inside, a towering vaulted ceiling and huge windows make this place feel bright and breezy whatever the time of year. All-white walls and Scandinavian styling are anything but rustic and the comfy modular sofa is the perfect place to snuggle in front of the pellet-burning stove on chilly evenings. One bedroom on the ground floor and another loft room make it suitable for a family or a couple of friends, and the pretty kitchen is surprisingly well equipped for cooking at home.

In the mornings, take your coffee out onto the deck and bask in the views and by night light the fire pit down in the garden for drinks under the stars. Just a ten-minute drive from Livingstone Manor, famous for its trendy breweries and excellent restaurants, you're in the heart of this bohemian area's foodie scene, with fly-fishing, hiking trails and more on your doorstep.

Tucked away near Tobyhanna State Park and with valleys, mountains and forests all a short drive away, this home is perfectly situated for the adventurous. While it has a rather basic interior, we think with a full roster of guests, you may not notice. Some of the bedrooms are also quite bare, but as a place to lay your head in between excursions around the state of Pennsylvania, they serve their purpose. There's also plenty here to keep kids entertained, with air hockey, table football, pool, table tennis and the projector all vying for their attention.

Have you ever wanted your very own slice of the Catskills? Of course, you have. Well, here's ten acres of it, to be precise. And it all comes with riverside deckchairs, a six-person hot tub, dense woods, and tubes for floating down the river. It's also safe to say that from this Big Indian Victorian manor, you'll have plenty of stellar hiking and ski resorts within a thirty-minute drive. Not to mention the Peekamoose Restaurant – just one minute away for moments when you don't feel like cooking. Of course, if you want to whip up your own culinary masterpiece, you'll have your enormous kitchen opening onto the outdoor deck, for leisurely riverside dinners too. Your host – a New York-based designer – has crafted the interiors to his idiosyncratic taste, so you'll find that the thoughtful touches such as Moroccan tiles, high-end bedding and paintings by local artists offer an unforgettable experience worth writing home about. So set off on endeavours into the private forest land – there's no better place to go on an adventure amidst nature in the Big Indian wilderness than here. Plus when you're ready to curl up at the day's end, there are plenty of snuggly spots to get cosy, whether that's inside the house, where you can make the most of the endless streaming options available from Netflix, Hulu, Amazon and HBO. Or, if you'd rather spend your evenings in the great outdoors, gather around the fire pit with a cup of hot cocoa – ready to roast some smores.

Indulge yourself in the natural world at this sun-drenched home, with plenty of space for friends and family indoors and out. You'll find toys and games along with free children's sledges for enjoying the snow, and kids will love the bunk beds. The outdoor fire pit offers cosy evenings under the stars, and the babbling brook at the end of the 5-acre garden brings you that bit closer to nature. Just minutes away you'll find Bethel Woods, the home of the original Woodstock, and the town of Bethel along with the picturesque Lake Superior State Park are an easy drive away.

A waterfront home in the Pocono Pines – yes please. Huge windows make it feel like you’re in the middle of the forest, though you’ll be able to pay for access to a premium club nearby, where you can golf, swim and play tennis – you get the peace of the wilderness with the amenities of a resort. This home also has its own dock on the pond, and you’ll have access to a canoe, boat and kayak to explore with. The hot tub, fire pit and barbecue make the deck all the more tempting, but if the weather isn’t playing ball there’s always the enclosed porch or fireplace. The games loft ensures teens will have nothing to complain about either.

Nature lovers, this one’s for you. Located in the heart of the majestic Poconos mountains, this family home offers an array of outdoor activities all year round, from hiking to cross country skiing. You’ll even have access to a nearby country club, where you can make use of the outdoor pool or grab a bite to eat at the restaurant if you fancy a night off from cooking. Inside you’ll find a games room, making it a great option if you’re travelling with kids, but the best part of this home is the outdoor space where you can stretch your legs and spend chilly evenings around the fire pit.

Cosy yet contemporary, this home is a great option for a getaway with friends. Directly in the heart of the Old Town, puts the area's shops, restaurants, and wineries all within easy reach. Niagara Falls is only twenty minutes by car and is well worth a visit. You'll have everything you need here to relax comfortably – an open-plan living area designed for socialising, two en-suite bedrooms, and a kitchen equipped with the must-have culinary gear. You can also take advantage of the sunny garden in the summer – perfect for evening tipples.

Two acres of woodland surround this contemporary cabin. Custom-built by your hosts, their attention to detail is exceptional. The loft will be a favourite, where you can admire the ridgeline views while playing pool. There's also a wet bar, a record player (their taste in music is just as delightful as their taste in design), and a collection of books to make cosy nights at home even better. Outside, you'll find a grill for summer barbecues and a campfire perfect for toasting marshmallows. Jim Thorpe's shops, eateries, and sightseeing opportunities are a fifteen-minute drive away. Or lace up your boots for a hike – your host is happy to share his favourite trails.

Just under an hour’s drive from the Pocono mountain range – which happens to be a delight for avid hikers and rafting fanatics alike – this home can be found on a sprawling estate in Pennsylvania. This, of course, means you’re pretty much always surrounded by green lawn, native foliage, ponds and streams, and one of those very ponds sets the scene perfectly for a group picnic or a retreat whenever you want to breakaway with a book for an hour or two. 

Another highlight of this home is the freestanding barn a stone's throw from the farmhouse. Used for weddings, birthdays, or any other celebratory group gatherings, it can be dressed up for the big event and is a fantastic use of space. The farmhouse itself lends itself more to dinner parties and if you’re lucky enough to have a pianist in the family, they might even take to providing some after-dinner entertainment. 

Explore the halls of this large home admiring the mix of rustic and classy elements and seeing if you can spot all the touches that pay homage to the glorious Pocono surroundings. Outside you’ll find a trampoline and volleyball net, but it’s the fire pit that promises late nights roasting marshmallows and staring up at the gorgeously bright night sky. 

Restmeadow Manor

Escape the everyday and make unforgettable memories at this 174-acre luxury mansion nestled in the beautiful Pocono Mountains. 

Whether you’re planning a relaxing weekend getaway with a large group of friends or that long overdue family reunion, this home has all the space and on-site entertainment you need to have fun and rejuvenate in peaceful surroundings.

With so much to do at the mansion, adventure starts at home. Take a dip in the private pool and unwind in the luxurious hot tub before enjoying a private screening in the home cinema room. When you're all chilled out, why not rally up some healthy competition with a game of tennis, trade workout tips in the gym, or play in the games area?

Relax in the modern and minimalist interior and lay on a feast for everyone at the large dining table, or gather outside for some fabulous alfresco meals.

If you venture out, explore the scenic beauty of the Pocono mountains and admire the pretty Wheelbarrow Run stream at the nearby Seven Tubs Recreation area. In the evening, catch some live music or sport at the Mohegan Sun Arena. When you don’t fancy cooking for everyone, there are plenty of local cafes and restaurants to try.

For your next big getaway, let your loved ones relax in beautiful surroundings at this incredible holiday mansion.

Featured in both Dwell and the New York Times, we couldn't help but be impressed by this cabin, standing on 19 acres of private land. The reason for the media attention will be evident in the open living space. Perfect for socialising with your guests, the wooden furniture and beams overhead capture the frontier spirit – turn on the woodstove and play games, or make use of the projector. The bedrooms are small but comfortable and kids will love the bunk beds. Of course, the real draw here is the outdoor area – acres of private, forested land, a private pond (perfect for spotting wildlife), tree swings and fire pits collude to create a rustic paradise.

Escape the pressures of modern living with a stay at this charming lakeside retreat. Situated just steps away from the beautiful Deep Run Beach, this is an ideal spot for a romantic getaway or a family holiday – and the good news is, your four-legged friends can come along too.

Arrive to be greeted by a cheerful and welcoming exterior, surrounded by lush greenery, with the glistening lake in the background. This is a peaceful and tranquil area – perfect if you’re looking for some quiet downtime. Step through the front door and find yourself on the porch, which is filled with lovely plants and features a comfy swing seat where you can hang out with your loved one and enjoy those glorious sunset views. 

The open-plan living area boasts plenty of space to kick off your shoes and relax – we love the light-filled ambience, with wooden floors and lovingly selected furnishings. This just feels like home from the moment you enter – let the holiday spirit take over. On cooler evenings you can snuggle up by the fireplace, and the bright and modern kitchen invites you to create delicious feasts, to be enjoyed at the elegant dining table.  

Get some quality sleep in the comfy bedroom and awake rested and ready for a day of lakeside adventures. And there is a lot to keep you busy in the area: Canandaigua Art and Music Center, the local wineries, Lincoln hill farms, restaurants, shopping, and a quaint little downtown make Canandaigua Lake with its crystal clear water the best of the Finger Lakes. The host will also provide two free kayaks should you wish to get on the lake itself. 

If you prefer to stay closer to home, you can also enjoy the large private garden, with its fire pit and your own little Tiki bar.
