Click to book Hawk & Falcon now: from £1581 per night Unplug, tune out and drop off the grid for a while. Nestled out of the way in the Rondout Valley in Upstate New York, this secluded barn house and cottage combo is perfect for anyone looking to get away from it all. Sat within seventy-five acres of idyllic woodland, the scene is set for you to live out your Captain Fantastic fantasies. There's even a renovated bus to sleep in (available to rent separately). Host Casey has built fairytale hangouts to immerse you in nature, including a hammock overlooking a waterfall, a gazebo beside a lily pond, and a yoga platform in the woods. The barn decking and outdoor kitchen adorned with fairy lights is a magical spot for family meals. Entertaining the family is easy with fireside songs (your hosts recommend making s'mores with Tate's Cookies instead of Graham Crackers – you can thank them later), swims in the pool and indoor and outdoor games for all ages to enjoy. We fully envision your kids daubed with mud having gone fully Lord of the Flies by the end of your time here. Sleeps up to 10 | 4 Bedrooms | 3 Bathrooms

Click to book Dancing Sculptures now: from £2372 per night Dancing Sculptures is the kind of getaway we dream of every day. The 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. Sleeps up to 10 | 5 Bedrooms | 4 Bathrooms
Whistle While You Surf, San Diego & Oceanside, USA
A view of the herb garden at Whistle While You Surf, Plum Guide home in San Diego & Oceanside, USA
Click to book Whistle While You Surf now: from £363 per night Less than a mile to Ocean Beach, this seaside home is light and spacious with Pacific views from every angle. Soak it all up from the living area, where wraparound windows frame the azure waters or watch the surfers on the horizon from the telescope on your bedroom’s private balcony. Take some cuttings from the herb garden and knock up a fragrant dish in the gourmet kitchen, followed by a digestif on the patio. In the mornings, take the beach gear to the waterfront and get settled into a deckchair or ride the waves on a boogie board. Watch the sea lions from Ocean Beach Pier, a fifteen-minute walk away, and enjoy a refreshing drink in the nearby cafes. Later on, take the twenty-five-minute stroll to Sunset Cliffs to watch the sky glow in oranges and reds. Come home to board games in the lounge and a glass of wine on the deck – the perfect end to a perfect day. Sleeps up to 6 | 3 Bedrooms | 3 Bathrooms
What Dreams Are Made Of, Los Angeles, USA

Click to book What Dreams Are Made Of now: from £1475 per night This Brentwood home doesn’t do things by halves. Every inch of this home has been considered from small details, like the bespoke fireplace and digital shower, to the real showstoppers – think shimmering pool, mini-basketball court and fitness room. Mornings here pose somewhat of a dilemma. Do you begin your day on the roof deck overlooking the Santa Monica Mountains or perhaps you’ll prefer being in the vegetable garden, picking fresh pomegranates to accompany breakfast? The gourmet kitchen will stop even the most discerning chef in their tracks – and that’s without mentioning the walk-in pantry and wine storage. Then, there’s the sleek living space with big squashy sofas – that’s where you’d find us, fit to burst after a barbecue feast dished up on the patio. The idea of leaving, even for a second, sounds out of the question, but we thoroughly recommend taking the twenty-five-minute drive down to Venice Beach for ocean swims and walks along the promenade. And when you head back to your pad, rinse sandy toes in the outdoor shower, before making a beeline for the enormous spa bathtub in the master en-suite for a long, hot soak. Sleeps up to 10 | 5 Bedrooms | 7 Bathrooms
Old Agoura, Los Angeles, USA

Accented with Spanish and Moroccan flair, there's a unique room for everyone in this family home – a sprawling master bedroom for parents and an enchanting space for the kids. Find a calming spot to read in the light-filled living room, benefitting from high vaulted ceilings, vast balcony windows, and plenty of green vistas beyond that creates a relaxing ambience inside. Outside, you have a vineyard in your own backyard, pretty alfresco dining areas, and lush orange trees to pick for your morning OJ. So whether you're wandering through the grapevines or enjoying lunch under the pergola, you'll feel a real sense of tranquillity and privacy here. Secluded yet conveniently located, when you're not lounging around in the garden, other lazy days are best spent on Malibu Beach – a thirty-minute drive away – while active types may opt for a thrilling day hiking the mountainous landscape nearby. Whatever you choose to see or do in the Californian sun, it's sure to leave you at one with nature. Sleeps up to 14 | 6 Bedrooms | 4 Bathrooms
