This is a lot of house for a vacation home but what a vacation home it is! Built in 1770, this riverfront home in Easton, Maryland designed by Jess Weeth of Weeth Home honours its history and was at the same time brought into the present making it a functional and beautiful for years to come. I love that it has a bit of sophistication, cottagecore, and beach vibes. Stunning. Photos: Keyanna Bowen.

Vriskaig House sits above Portree Loch (in the Hebrides – an archipelago off the west coast of the Scottish mainland), sited in a wooded hillside, bedded into its wild context with views across the water. Two volumes intersect; an arching, blackened timber clad form follows the contours of the land, from which a rubbled local stone front wall descends dramatically, concealing further accommodation behind. This blackened timber cladding and natural stone walling reduces the visual impact of the dwelling from distant views.The use of natural materials runs into the interior, a free flowing, generous but understated space. The rough and rugged environment outside is striking, viewed through large expanses of slimline glazing. Clayplaster walls, natural resin floors and ash joinery work together in a carefully curated palette.
This house is very much modern and minimal which offers no distractions to the beauty outside its walls. I could sit on that sofa and watch the view for hours. Designed by Bath-based architecture and interior design firm Room. Photos: Toby Mitchell.

This four-bedroom holiday home in Point Leo, Victoria blends Aussie beach shack vibes with Palm Springs motel style. The mid-century design features vibrant finishes, a reception-inspired kitchen, sunken lounge, and pool room. A long hallway, echoing a motel gangway, connects colour-blocked bedrooms with views of a central courtyard and pool. Brickwork, wooden shutters, and extensive glazing optimize natural light and passive heating for each bedroom. Not a Motel by Pleysier Perkins.

A handsome detached Cotswold stone town house in the centre of Stow on the Wold. A large open plan living area with French windows and bifold doors opening on to a stone terrace with small grassed area and pergola. Bespoke painted kitchen with large dark stained wood island & unique bar area. Separate snug, office and laundry with built in dog beds and bespoke cabinetry. 7 individually designed double en suite bedrooms including magical attic room featuring 4 painted beds built in to the eaves.
I adore every inch of this house. I’m especially fond of the kitchen – it has everything! Spacious, a combination of dark and light, a beautiful bar, 2 separate islands, built-in dog nook and fire (or is that a TV playing a fire video?) Available for hire via Shoot Factory.

I had to share another beautiful home designed by Brittany Bromley. This Bridgehampton stunner is filled with personality and lots of layers and textures with some help from grasscloth wallpapers. With accents of blue in each space it makes it very cohesive and flows really well. Love this! Photos: Annie Schlechter.
