Holiday home Casa1015

Porto for insider: The stylish Casa1015 is located between Douro and Atlantic Ocean in the vibrant Foz neighbourhood. The house from the 19th Century is situated in one of the narrow, winding streets which are typical for Porto.

Apartment AUFBERG 1110

Aufberg 1110 is located 1110 meters above sea level in the heart of the Austrian Alps. It forms a visual unit with the neighbouring Aufberg 1113 but retains its own distinct character.

Holiday home Achternhus

Enjoy a relaxing holiday with Kalle or Fiete: the two exclusive, semi-detached houses with typical North German names are situated in the holiday home Achternhus on the Darß peninsula.

⟶

Apartment alte Säge

On Lake Weissensee in Carinthia, where motorboats are banned and two-thirds of the shoreline will remain undeveloped in any case: the Alte Säge in Neusach offers six holiday flats nestled between a stream, a natural garden and the lakeshore. Once you’ve been there, you’ll want to return.

⟶

Holiday home Onder Ons

An atmosphere like in Bullerby: You would expect to find the Onder Ons holiday house in Sweden, but it’s actually located on a 1500 sqm large natural property in the village of Zierow in Mecklenburg.

⟶

Holiday home Werf IJlst Sinnehúskes

The Sinnehúskes are exclusive waterside lodges, each with their own boat at the back of the house. They are located on the site of a former shipyard on the outskirts of the historic little town IJlst.

⟶

Holiday home Wood h

Spectacular views included! The trip to Wood h on the Scottish Isle of Skye may take some time, but you’ll be rewarded at the destination.

⟶

Holiday home Ferienhaus Tambari

Tambari is the name of an old fishing “cutter” in a children’s book from the GDR era. Like this fishing boat, the holiday house is located in a village near the Bodden on the Baltic Sea.

⟶

Holiday home Das schwarze Haus

The Uckermark is also known as the Tuscany of the North; forests, lakes and rolling hills as far as the eye can see. At the foot of one of these hills, there is a holiday home that could be mistaken for a barn.

⟶

Holiday home The Long House

The Long House, located in Norfolk on the East coast of England, seems cross between a church and a barn. The flint walls were modelled on the traditional buildings of the region.

⟶

Hotel Quinta da Bouça D’Arques

In the Quinta da Bouca d’Arques you can choose between apartments in typical regional style and in modern architecture. The former mansion of the 17th Century has been supplemented by a new building.

⟶

Holiday home Resort Baumgeflüster

Childhood dreams should become true — but with an upgrade, please! With the forest all around and deer underneath the tree house. With panoramic windows, the guest feels part of nature here.

⟶

Holiday homeHotel Heustodl am Taxhof

The Heustodl at the Taxhof offers an unusual architectural experience. From the outside, it looks like three barns have been merged. Inside, however, guests find a continuous space that flows down the slope.

⟶

Apartment Dahoam Refugium

Two things immediately catch your eye when you arrive at the Naturresidence Dahoam: the remarkable view into the Merano valley and the modern architecture of the low energy construction.

⟶

Holiday home The Dune House

Dune House is situated near the village of Thropeness in Suffolk, on England’s eastern coast. Nestled into the dunes, the house offers fantastic views across the sea.

⟶

Hotel Hotel Hinteregger

Family owned for over 100 years, Hotel Hinteregger has been remodeled and enlarged over several generations. Old and new are clearly perceptible and yet harmoniously united.

⟶

Holiday home Casa al Mar

Architectural Cubism—a five-minute walk from the port of Sóller, featuring a 120-square-meter rooftop terrace, a pool, and, of course, ocean views: Casa al Mar showcases traditional Mallorcan materials in a contemporary design.

⟶

Holiday home Klare Kante

“Klare Kante” – Sharp Edge – an invitation and a warning all at once. An invitation to free yourself for a time from Wi-Fi and Dolby surround sound systems, from networking and always being in touch.

⟶

Holiday home The Shingle House

The Shingle House is set in a dramatic, almost surreal landscape: It is located on the vast gravel beach of Dungeness, a stoný desert with rare plants and animal species.

⟶

Holiday home The Balancing Barn

From the front, it’s a barn; from the side, it’s a sensation: MVRDV’s 15-metre-long Balancing Barn hovers freely above a slope. It was the first house in Alain de Botton’s ‘Living Architecture’ series – and has already become an icon of holiday home architecture.

⟶

Holiday home aavego

Situated by the North Sea, near fjords, lakes and dunes, this holiday home interacts with its natural environment and integrates qualities of simple living. Nordic design traditions guaranteed!

Holiday home MEERHAUS

Open architecture, modern interior, cosy and yet unobtrusive – this is MEERHAUS (Seahouse), surrounded by trees on a plot of 800 square meter, just 40 steps away from the Baltic sea.

⟶

Hotel Refugio Laudegg

Located directly below Laudegg Castle, on a rocky outcrop high above the Inn Valley: The Refugio in Ladis combines contemporary wooden architecture with proximity to one of Tyrol’s largest ski resorts—and a family-run business that takes care of everything else.
