Especially For George Clarke Fans – Our Amazing Spaces-Featured Holiday Retreats!

7 April 2023

On TV since 2012, the BAFTA-nominated Channel Four series George Clarke’s Amazing Spaces is all about transforming small, everyday, often unconventional spaces into the most incredible places to live, work, and play.

As such, the show has won a loyal legion of fans who adore creative, quirky surroundings that are clearly imbued with bucketloads of love and care.

If you’re one of them, you may be interested to know that our listings boast more than a few Amazing Spaces-featured hideaways.

So as a special treat, we thought we’d bring them all together in one handy list… just for you!

Prepare to feast your eyes on delights that include a restored 1950s caravan with a gorgeous rooftop garden and lush orchard views. There’s also a gloriously quirky chapel, nestled amongst serene English oaks and chestnuts on what feels like your very own Shropshire estate.

In the mood to gaze up at the stars? Then a hand-built, stellar-inspired cabin that celebrates life lived al fresco is just the thing… particularly since it also features a ‘secret’ slide and a sunken steel bath, and is perfectly nestled on the edge of Exmoor National Park.

In short: while you’ve probably seen and admired these Amazing Spaces before, now’s your chance to actually stay in one!
