Across France we have great range of unusual properties from luxurious chateaux to converted watermills and from traditional mas to villas on picturesque vineyards and even a cognac distillery. In Spain we have traditional fincas, or for something even more unusual we have a number of cavehouses. Italy is home to some outstanding converted mills and some delightful authentic trulli homes. Further away, try a romantic log cabin in Canada, a beachfront castle in the Caymans or even a luxury treehouse in New Zealand. However, some of our favourite properties are right here in the UK including a converted church and a houseboat in Devon, and a delightful lighthouse in Somerset.
