This seaside retreat is a true oasis of privacy. Offering total seclusion in addition to breathtaking coastal views, the property spans 123 acres and is located within a natural park.

The Palladian-style villa was built for the Contarini family in 1588, attributed to Vincenzo Scamozzi due to similarities in design to his other villas built in the region, although this is still much debated.

Sold as a commercial enterprise, the estate can accommodate up to 78 guests on the 37 acre property and is run as an events and wedding venue.

The 13 acre parkland estate is located in Gascony, and offers the opportunity to also purchase the surrounding 370 acre agricultural estate, producing mainly wheat and sunflowers.

The Grade II* listed Jacobean mansion dates back to 1603, although the property was mentioned in the Domesday Book in the 9th century and has historic links to Rhodri Mawr, the King of all Wales.

Magnificently restored, the French chateau is considered a jewel of the Puy-de-Dôme and is as magnificent inside as it is outside.

Located in the Belgian province of Flemish Brabant, Castle Vroenhoven was fully restored in 2005 and is on the market with De Boer & Partners Immobiliën for €3.9M.

The incredible 74 acre estate comes with 20 acres of woodland, 7.5 acres of gardens, and 44 acres of vineyards that grow Alvarinho grapes and produce 75,000 bottles per year of crisp, citrusy white wine.

Set near near the Mallorcan mountain town of Pollença, the country estate spans over 296 acres. A piece of local history, the property is one of the original “possessió” of the island, dating back hundreds of years.

Built in 1900, the Art Nouveau-style villa is set in the heart of a lush century-old park, complete with an iron gazebo and greenhouse, and surrounded by fragrant flowers and trees, as well as terraced gardens and a private lake.
