Heritage-Rich Holiday Homes Around the World

If you’re looking for a magical stay that is truly one-of-a-kind, choose a holiday home that’s steeped in heritage.
Why? The word “heritage” denotes decades – sometimes centuries – of proud, carefully-preserved tradition that is unique to an individual setting. The walls of heritage buildings sing with captivating tales, gently transporting you back in time on a journey that promises to linger long in your memory.
Along with your loved ones, you’ll be surrounded by characterful elements and quirky features that add depth and charm to a holiday, from beamed ceilings and intricate original artwork, to roaring open fires that warm your evenings to snuggly perfection.
Immersed in such a soothing atmosphere, you could discover that stepping away from the stresses and strains of everyday life suddenly becomes much easier!
Scattered across the globe, each one of these heritage-rich retreats boasts its own incredible story, with a enthralling blend of proud historic qualities and sleek, well-chosen mod-cons for those extra touches of comfort and convenience.
Many have been carefully and lovingly restored by their owners themselves. Others boast scenery that is truly spectacular – both inside and out. All are distinctive and mesmerising in the most wonderful ways.
So why not browse our hand-picked list, and choose your favourite over a welcome cuppa?
