Other links to historic holiday properties
The Vivat Trust; similar to the Landmark
Trust but much smaller, though they do have a comprehensive website!
The National Trust;
mostly cottage accommodations but there are a few very nice historic buildings.
The National Trust for Scotland; also
have some nice cottages and buildings but you need to book WAY ahead, even then
demand is such that allocation is done on a 'names out of a hat' basis.
The Irish Landmark Trust; - 25 Eustace Street,
Temple Bar, Dublin 2. Tel 353-1-662-8425. - A clone of the original, still in
its infancy it doesn't have many properties yet. (thanks to Tony Watt for
this info)
Also worth a look is the 'Distinctly Different' catalogue (4 Masons Lane,
Bradford on Avon, Wiltshire BA15 1QN Tel 01225 866648) - a collection of 47
'tried and tested' interesting B&B's eg. Mills, barns, lighthouses with some
self-catering accommodations and other miscellany.
