Ways in
If you already know the shape of the week — wine country, a big group, water you can swim in from the steps, a pool worth planning around — start here.
Reimagined Places
Buildings that used to be something else and haven't forgotten it — a grain mill, a chapel, a village school, a farmhouse that worked for three hundred years before anyone put a bed in it. You stay inside the old shape of the place: thick walls, odd rooms, a courtyard laid out for reasons that had nothing to do with holidays.
Written up in the stories so far: seven watermill stays and five Portuguese windmills.
Architectural Escapes
Houses where the architecture is the reason to come. Glass that puts the weather in the room, cabins built by someone who cared how the door closes, concrete that does something to the light at six in the evening — all of it designed to be lived in for a week, not just photographed.
Written up in the stories so far: six architectural cabins in Portugal and Galicia.
Experience-Led Stays
One thing on the property is good enough to set the shape of the week: water you can swim in from the steps, a vineyard you are inside rather than next to, a pool someone spent a year getting right. These are the houses you don't leave until Thursday.
Written up in the stories so far: seven wine stays in Portugal, Galicia and the Azores.
Each collection opens as the first houses behind it publish.
