You could vacation at a Georgian manor house in wild Wales, brimming with antiques and family heirlooms and positioned in total peace overlooking a Welsh waterway. Or, nestled in the rolling hills just north of Bath, is a splendid Blandings property, dating back to the 14th century and classified as a Grade I monument. Carefully restored, the house remains faithful to its origins without sacrificing the conveniences of modern living. It comes complete with a dedicated team of staff and is an excellent base for exploring this picturesque, historic city and its luscious surroundings.

Absorb the pleasures of Provence at a contemporary villa designed by a well-known Cote d’Azur architect in the style of a boutique chateau. Equipped with an elegant tower, backed by oak forests and open protected countryside, it also features sensational views of the sea. For a low-key yet luxurious seaside holiday, Blandings has a gorgeous villa on Gozo, the lesser visited sister island to Malta in the Mediterranean. Enjoy total privacy while relaxing beside the sublime pool next to the sea.

This provides you with a little taste of the exquisite portfolio of luxury holiday rentals available through Blandings. Leave your holiday in the hands of Warren de Long and you will be assured a divine experience at some of Europe’s most majestic homes.
