"Holiday houses can afford the luxury of being romantic and absurly indulgent.

And whatever the charm of hotels, there are -as children know- particular pleasures in playing house for a time.

It isn't really until we have stocked up a fridge in a foreign country that we have begun to understand the place.

Like all experiences of travel, they help us to return home more aware of the advantages of our own spaces and with renewed commitment to the objects and choise we have made."

Alain de Botton
