We've gathered eight enchanting properties that embody this magic, along with breathtaking experiences and unforgettable European events to help you craft your own storybook journey. Step inside and discover where your dreams take shape.

Let us inspire you.

EIGHT ENCHANTING ESCAPES

ITALY

A thirteenth-century hilltop village between Arezzo and Siena, Castello di Gargonza offers 29 rooms and apartments, a panoramic pool and a restaurant serving authentic Tuscan cooking.

AUSTRIA

Villa Bergzauber

Built in 1900 in the heart of Upper Austria, Villa Bergzauber sits within a park with views of the Pyhrn-Priel mountains — 13 rooms and suites, family-run, with a saltwater pool and alpine walking on the doorstep.

GREECE

Palazzo Santa Maria

The neoclassical mansion built in 1874 on the hillside of Hermoupolis, Syros, is a designated cultural monument — six rooms and suites set within frescoed walls, a short walk from the island's historic centre.

SWEDEN

Wallby Säteri Country House

A family-run manor with roots in the 14th century, Wallby Säteri sits on the shores of Lake Skirö in Småland — 21 rooms across red cottages, walking trails, a wood-fired lakeside sauna and seasonal farm kitchen.

IRELAND

Rathsallagh House

Converted from Queen Anne stables in 1798, this family-run country house sits in a peaceful parkland in County Wicklow — 33 rooms, a championship golf course and Irish country house cooking, an hour from Dublin.
