Temperature: 19°C high; 13°C low Season: spring Travel time from UK: 2 hours 35 minutes Time difference: GMT +1 Nothing brings a spring to the step quite like the sight of Italy's glorious Amalfi coast. Particularly in March, when its vertiginous twists are bathed in a daily average eight hours of sun. Cliffs plunge into the Tyrrhenian Sea, topped with grand palazzos and smart hotels. Narrow, Roman lanes are stuffed with limoncello stalls flogging the boozy spoils of Sorrento's famous fruit. Its snoozy air and pastel-coloured houses are pure Italian cinema: you might even swear you've seen a young Sophia Loren looking impossibly saucy by the quay. Do as the Italians do and spend the lazy, romantic days enjoying a long aperitivo . Don't miss fresh fritto misto at Marina Grande, the town's old fishing harbour, or Michelin-starred Il Buco in the cellars of an old monastery, where chef Peppe Aversa serves seasonal ingredients under a stone-hewn, vaulted ceiling.

13 Best Blue Ridge Mountain Cabin Rentals in North Carolina and Virginia - Condé Nast Traveler

-

When it comes to finding the perfect Blue Ridge Mountain cabin rental, the mountains themselves—which technically stretch from southern Pennsylvania into Georgia—do most of the work, offering a perfect backdrop for a treetop vacation any time of year. But what's inside matters too, from spacious bedrooms and cozy living rooms with fireplaces for cool mountain nights to chef's kitchens for meals in and hot tubs to enjoy after long days on the trails. 

We made sure our picks for the best Airbnbs and Vrbos along the mountain range have it all—plus, each one is within 45 minutes of the Blue Ridge Parkway, the scenic thoroughfare that connects the mountains from northern Virginia to southern North Carolina and brings you to countless trailheads (including Appalachian Trail day hikes), overlooks, and waterfalls. From secluded treehouses to city-adjacent log cabins, there's something for everyone on our list of the 13 best Blue Ridge Mountain cabin rentals around.

While we have not stayed in every Airbnb featured, unless otherwise stated, these listings are vetted based on Superhost status, amenities, location, previous guest reviews, and decor.

Everything you need to know to have the best woodsy getaway in 2021. This camping cottage, as it's classified, can be found at French Creek State Park,  just an hour outside Philadelphia.

Rebuilt in 2011, this home in Woodbury, Connecticut, features wide-plank floors and exposed wood beams, maintaining its original charm. While barn homes often have open floor plans, this one comprises many smaller rooms for a more traditional feel. Even so, at 3,600 square feet, it still offers plenty of room for crafts and hobbies. A large bonus room acts as a rec room and is the perfect spot for a game of pool. A built-out porch is great for year-round entertaining.

Susan Law Cain/Shutterstock With their gable roofs and symmetrical windows, colonial houses can make quite a statement. Classic, elegant, and charming, they've become embedded in the white picket fence, American dream imagery. According to Wentworth Studio, the colonial revival began in the 1880s and lasted until around 1945. The simplicity of these homes makes them the perfect candidate for additions, alterations, and renovation. American colonial homes tend to have a symmetrical floor plan, with the front door right in the middle of the front exterior and usually flanked by large columns and tall windows. They are impressive buildings, and flippers and renovators enjoy bringing these houses up to a modern standard. Sometimes it's a s...
