Luxury homes with pools
There's little better than floating in blue waters under a hot sun, braving a sunrise swim or a moonlit dip. Book a luxury home with a pool and dive in...
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 luxury holiday home with the most important of all features: 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.
Pools aren't just for summer. On cooler mornings, there's nothing like hurriedly tiptoeing across a frosty lawn to sink into steaming waters for a warming dip in a heated pool as the sun rises from a chilly autumnal night. For those who prefer warmth, choose a property with an indoor pool where the water-based frolics can continue throughout the stormiest days, rain lashing against the windows.
