Villas for Rent in England - Throughout
Great Britain, English is spoken in many different dialects and
accents. You’ll find that the island’s landscapes are similarly
varied, from gentle, undulating hills and expanses of sandy beaches to
dramatic mountain crags and rocky shoreline. Wherever you travel, you
will notice miles of fertile farmland where crops such as wheat,
barley, sugar beets, and potatoes are cultivated. Whether you wish to
savor London’s cosmopolitan delights, see the White Cliffs of Dover,
quaff ale in a historic countryside pub, or take in a cricket match,
Great Britain offers options for travelers of any ilk.
Villas for Rent in France - France
offers something for all tastes: tall mountains, lush farmland, sandy
beaches, quaint villages, and fashionable boulevards. You may also be
inspired by French literature, art, and cinema, by its
influential culinary traditions, or by its history of winemaking
excellence. Paris, the country’s cultural heart, is an exciting
destination, whether museums, shopping, or simply people watching rank
high on your itinerary. Away from the urban centers, options also
abound: you can join chic beach goers on the Cote d’Azur, tour
vineyards in Burgundy, or visit chateaux in the Loire Valley. The Dordogne
boasts fascinating prehistoric remains, while Provence is a painter’s dream, with its chalky crags and sun-baked
fields. To the north, Brittany’s mystical Celtic heritage makes for great exploration. The forests of Alsace, on
the other hand, beckon to hikers and nature lovers. If you are looking for France villas or Paris
apartments for your family vacation, or French villas with swimming pool for your romantic honeymoon, view our France
Villas.
Villas for Rent in Greece - With
a history that can be traced back to 3,000 BC, Greece has an
unparalleled cultural legacy. To say nothing of democracy, this
country has given us, among others, Socrates, the greatest Athenian
philosopher and teacher of Plato; Homer, author of The Iliad and
The Odyssey; Greek tragedians the likes of Sophocles and Euripides;
and gods the likes of The Olympians. Here, it’s possible to do
little else but soak up the blinding sun and then dance the night
away with throngs of fellow sunburned hedonists---or spend the day
trekking through the stomping grounds of legendary figures like
Agamemnon (the citadel at Mycenae is a must see) and then spend a
quiet evening in a taverna over seafood and a bottle of retsina.
In Greece, as with all European destinations, an adventurous spirit and
an appreciation for the country’s differences are essential to
enjoying its riches.
Villas for Rent in Ireland - Separated
from Great Britain by the Irish Sea, Ireland is divided into the
Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland, which is part of the United
Kingdom. Although divided politically and economically, Ireland is a
warm, welcoming place to visit. Festivals, music, rugby, storytelling,
horse racing, and quaffing a pint of Guiness at the local pub are
national passions. Ireland has a rich literary history and has
produced four Nobel prizewinners: George Bernard Shaw, WB Yeatts,
Samuel Beckett, and Seamus Heaney. The landscape of Ireland is
breathtaking and diverse, including rocky coastlines, lakes, rivers,
wetlands, mountains, and vast pastureland. There are quaint farms and
sleepy seaside villages. Active travelers will find excellent
opportunities for hiking and water sports. If your interests lie more
in history and antiquity, Ireland also has plenty to offer in the way
of Bronze Age artifacts, early Christian sites, Norman fortifications,
and grand Georgian public buildings.
Villas for Rent in Italy - Although
Italy is known for its inimitable style, delicious food, and
incredible wines, it’s also known for its boisterous spirit.
Italians are warm, talkative, and expressive. They live with gusto!
From the Dolomiti Mountains to Agrigento, and from bustling,
cosmopolitan Rome to the canals of Venice, you will find an
enthusiastic welcome, a treasure trove of artistic riches, and
incomparable beauty. History buffs will delights in Italy’s diverse
ethnic background, shaped by Etruscan, Greek, and Roman colonization.
Wherever you may travel and in whatever season, Italy will enchant you
with its gastronomic delicacies, art and music, and incredible
landscapes and architecture. The best way to experience the tremendous
beauty and culture of Italy is to rent your own Italian villa or
apartment for your family or friends. You'll have a home base from
which to explore the surrounding area, while such amenities as a
swimming pool, enchanting views, and storied pasts will make your
stays at your Italian villa as memorable as the many new places you
discover.

Villas for Rent in Scotland - Scotland's
heritage of architectural, scenic, and historic treasures is virtually
unrivaled. Its many castles, islands, and battlefields are matched

Villas for Rent in Spain - Owing
to its unique combination of popular Mediterranean coastal resorts and
uncharted inland territories, Spain is a traveler’s dream. You’ll
find snow-capped peaks, verdant meadows, orange, olive, and almond
groves, and deserts dotted with cork trees. What's more, Spain is
characterized by a pronounced regional diversity of language, culture,
and politics. There are seventeen independent regions. Exuberance for
life, however, unifies all Spaniards. Whether taking a customary
evening stroll, meeting for tapas, or sharing a holiday with family,
natives exude a joyful enthusiasm. Ideal itineraries might include
exploration of Andalucia's Moorish mountain towns, or perhaps a
weeklong foray into the varied delights of Barcelona, Spain's cultural
hub. Longing for sun and sea? Then look no further than the Balearics
(in the Mediterranean) and Canary Islands (in the Atlantic.)
Villas for Rent in Turkey - Straddling the meeting point of Europe and Asia, Turkey is the birthplace of many civilizations, including
the Hittites and the Hellenes. The capital of the civilized world for many centuries, it was the home of
the Byzantine Empire and the first Christian state. Prior to conquer by the Ottomans in 1453, the Roman
city of Constantinople was the world's greatest cultural center. Given its extensive history, it's no surprise that modern Turkey is a treasure trove of archaeological wonders, such as St. John's Ephesus and
Helene's Troy. While antiquity is likely to be the focus of some portion of your journey in Turkey, relaxing on its beautiful beaches should also be a priority. But your options don't end here: You can also
trek in the mountains and valleys of central Anatolia, scuba dive off the Bodrum Peninsula, and explore the quiet villages surrounding Antalya, the chief city on the Mediterranean central coast.
