About our Luxury Private Homes

Unique Home Stays welcomes you to stay in the very best 'Luxury Private Holiday Accommodation' in the UK and worldwide.

Who needs hotels?

We have handpicked the crème de la crème of privately owned luxury holiday homes that offer a unique alternative to run-of-the mill hotels.

Having travelled the world and settled in Australia for 12 years, MD Sarah Stanley knew what she wanted and expected for Unique Home Stays: Intimate private luxury accommodation oozing with character, excellent regional cuisine and smart comfortable bedrooms with all the trimmings. Which is why, in 2001, Sarah returned home to Cornwall and launched Unique Home Stays.

It’s not just the immaculate homes and magnificent locations, but the warmth of welcome that our owners provide making the guests experience a truly exceptional one. Our private holiday homes offer a truly relaxed and informal stay, whilst maintaining sky-high standards and remaining sensitive to your needs.

Today Unique Home Stays offers private house accommodation in over 100 homes scattered over 14 different countries. We have also included a unique portfolio of Large Country Houses available for exclusive hire. The properties include castles, priories, rectories, windmills, water mills, manor houses, coastal homes and even a house in the sea.

Enjoy your stay!
