Five unique and beguiling European getaways

23 January 2019
Cycladic private island in Greece

Europe! Cradle of Western civilisation as we know it and home to such a vast array of countries, languages and cultures.

It goes without saying that the accommodation you’ll find in places like Spain, Greece and Italy can be equally as beguiling as the people, from uber-cool architect-designed pads to curvaceous cave dwellings, private island retreats where sunsets are the only dictator, and rustic eco cottages with endless rolling hills to admire.

Seduced yet? Don’t just take our word for it. Allez-y, vamonos, avanti towards European holiday heaven…
