Luxury holiday homes with swimming pools
There's little better than floating in blue waters under a hot sun, braving a wee hours wade or a twilight plunge; dive into our luxury holiday homes with swimming pools (from natural ponds to geothermal subterranean pools).
Armed with a flamboyant swimsuit and all of the necessary ingredients to mix up a hedonistic cocktail hour, you're all set to escape the feverish heat of the city this summer and head towards a private home with the most important feature of all: a swimming pool. As the children float past on inflatables, you can sit back with a good book and let the world dissolve behind well-thumbed pages. These luxury holiday homes with swimming pools and hot tubs are the ultimate in family-friendly breaks that feel more like private spa retreats in the country.
You needn’t travel past the British Isles for sunrise swims and moonlit paddles; our luxury holiday homes with swimming pools includes island towers and woodland manors (and there’s no rules against skinny dipping in sight). Think morning laps among the Cotswolds wildflowers while the dogs run alongside, and waterside sundowners in folkloric Cornwall. And pools aren't just for summer; on those cool autumn mornings, there's nothing like tiptoeing across a frosty lawn and sinking into the steaming waters of a heated secret garden pool.
