Manor & Country Houses

Some occasions deserve a suitably grand setting. Our big manor houses to rent and large country houses to rent offer a wonderful backdrop for milestone birthdays, anniversaries and long-overdue family reunions, with spacious reception rooms and plenty of room for guests to stay under one roof.

Imagine getting everyone together for a celebratory dinner in a magnificent dining room, followed by drinks by the fire and breakfast together the following morning. Many of our larger houses have beautiful grounds to explore, while our Concierge team can help make hosting easier by arranging private chefs or catering at selected homes. For more historic homes with an equally impressive sense of occasion, discover our Châteaux & Castles Collection.

You don’t need a week away to make the most of a grand country house. A weekend with friends or family gives you the chance to catch up properly, enjoy meals together and make yourselves at home somewhere extraordinary.

If you’re looking for manor houses to rent for a weekend, our collection includes homes that welcome shorter breaks, making them ideal for special celebrations or a few days away in the countryside. You’ll also find large country houses to rent for weekends with enough space for bigger gatherings, while our collection of party houses offers further inspiration for those planning a celebration.

Getting several generations under one roof is considerably easier when there’s space for everyone. Our manor houses and country homes make wonderful settings for multigenerational holidays, where grandparents can enjoy a quiet morning in the garden while younger guests make the most of the grounds.

With generous communal spaces and comfortable bedrooms, these houses offer the freedom to spend time together without having to do everything as a group. Our collection of manor houses to rent in the UK and Ireland includes homes for different group sizes, so you can find somewhere that suits everyone, with enough room to make the occasion feel truly special.
