My top five One Off Places

At the time of writing One Off Places features over 100 properties in 27 different countries. Every one of them is individual, and every one has its own character. I would love to visit them all! Here's some of my current favourites:


1. La Singlarie
4 bedroomed gite in the midi-Pyrenees, France.


This terrific gite has spacious, high quality accommodation. Situated on an organic farm it is close to all amenities, activities and places of interest. The views are spectacular, the countryside beautiful and peaceful. For those looking to get away from it all, seeking an ecologically sensitive environment, we offer the perfect holiday location.

2. Casa do Moinho

2 bedroom windmill house in the Azores, Portugal



Where else do you get a windmill in your garden? This beautiful house next to the windmill is situated on a large property with fantastic views of the Atlantic ocean and the neighbouring islands. The perfect place for a peaceful and relaxing holiday, with the opportunity to hike and take trips to the beach and surrounding area.

3. Vino Cottage

A three bedroomed cottage in Prekmurje, Slovenia



This cottage is set in the beautiful Goricko National Park in North East Slovenia. It is situated in the small wine growing village of Suhi Vhr, and set within its own vineyard. The cottage makes an excellent base for exploring this undiscovered corner of Slovenia, and also for trips into Austria, Hungary and Croatia.

The house, which has been featured in several interior design magazines, is decorated in Andalusian/Moroccan style. evoking the region's Moorish past.
