Villas for Rent in Europe

England - France - Greece - Ireland - Italy - Malta - Scotland - Spain - Turkey

  • 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 Malta - In Malta, you'll explore 7000 years of history yet live passionately in the present. You'll span the millennia with an astonishing array of things to discover. And wherever you go, the Islands' scenery and architecture provide a spectacular backdrop. The colours are striking. Honey-coloured stone against the deepest of Mediterranean blues. The Maltese Islands have been described as one big open-air museum. What makes them unique is that so much of their past is visible today. Delve into the Islands' mysterious prehistory, retrace the footsteps of St Paul or see where the Knights of St John defended Christendom.
  •  
  • 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 only by the views from its fabled hills and mountains.
  •  
  • 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.
