Hamptons’ properties can be all about the grandiose and the splendid (which isn’t a totally bad thing). But this little gem scores so high on the ‘adorable’ scale you might need to forcible stop yourself from continually squealing like an excited piglet. The manicured garden with winding path has an almost-English feel to it and the pointed roof is a little bit Alpine. The combination is wonderfully fairytale. In terms of the interiors, we’re in love with the floral wallpapers used throughout and the deliberate (but stylish) mishmash of chairs and furniture. Alongside all this cuteness is some high-quality luxury too, in particular the outdoor pool, the Peloton bike and a luxurious tub to soak in post-workout.

Rooms? Three bedrooms. Sleeps six guests.
The Mood? Sophisticated cottagecore, through and through.
Location perks? Just a ten-minute drive from the white sands of Cooper’s Beach.
Budget range? For the Hamptons, not so bad.

If you’re looking for ‘beachfront’ in the Hamptons, this Dune Road property not only gives you some lovely sea views, it also provides 150ft of private oceanfront to luxuriate in at your own pace and pleasure. And if that wasn’t enough, there’s also a decadent heated pool and several nice decking areas to dine on. Internally, there’s a lot of stripped and lightened wood, cool white linens and wicker detailing to get you in the beachy boho mood. We particularly like the hanging cage chair in the double bedroom and the extra large breakfast bar in the kitchen (perfect for when you’re hosting a rather large family gathering!).
