YOU won’t believe these holiday homes are in the UK.
With pools, white-washed walls and bright decor, these stays look like they are in the Mediterranean rather than the British countryside.

A Romantic Folly, Devon
This tiny home in Dittisham looks over the rolling hills in Devon – and it has a heated pool too.
The sweet Folly is bright and airy and filled with nautical hints throughout.
It even has its own boat loveseat outside that looks over a stream.
The bedroom has wooden slatted walls and ceilings.
Off the bedroom are white shutters that open up to a huge bathroom with a rounded bath – perfect for a good soak after a relaxing day.
As for activities, outside there’s a tennis court and of course a swimming pool.
The pool is heated and has a mural on the wall that looks like it depicts ancient Greece – and it’s open from 7am to 7pm.
One happy visitor wrote on Tripadvisor: “The swimming pool was crystal clear and warm, scented with jasmine flowers all around. Lovely walks through the lanes too.”
Another added: “We used the pool every day and it was wonderful to swim about under such lush foliage. The sauna was excellent too.”
The exterior looks like it could be somewhere else too with greens, pinks and blues – there’s no way you’ll miss it.

Converted Granary, Wells
This beautiful self-contained holiday apartment is in Wells, Bristol and reminds us of a Grecian stay.
The interior is whitewashed, which is a typical Mediterranean look along with hues of yellow, orange and blue.
There are wooden beams stretching across the ceiling, and the living area has squishy sofas and a log burner for when the weather isn’t quite so hot.
There’s an indoor pool too which feels more like outside with its wooden slatted and glass ceilings.
While the pool isn’t completely private, the Airbnb owner will give visitors exclusive access upon request.

Cosy Cottage, Lymington
This tiny, and very pretty, cottage has a private heated swimming pool during summer months.
Described as a ‘secret hideaway’, the Bothy has room for four guests with an open plan living room.
The building doesn’t look over ‘Med’ like, but it’s the outside area that really feels like it could be abroad.
There’s a private garden and you even get exclusive use of the heated swimming pool which is open from May to September.
Outside, the pool even has a wooden veranda with climbing grape vines.
This home is in the top 10 per cent of eligible listings based on ratings, reviews and reliability and has a review average of 4.95.

The Blue House on the Beach, Camber
So The Blue House on the Beach in Camber technically doesn’t have a pool but as the house name describes, it’s literally on the sands.
The house is modern, in a triangle shape with glass windows and balconies and has incredible beach views.
And as a result, the inside is so bright and the colour of the orange wood panels on the ceiling give it a sunny, Mediterranean feel.
In the living room is huge sliding glass doors that lead out onto a private wooden deck looking over Camber Sands.
Inside there are also rattan touches throughout like lamp shades and scandi-style cushions.
The property is air-conditioned too so once it reaches Med temperature, visitors can still stay cool.
It can take up to eight guests across four spacious bedrooms.
