Venus's Dance

Venus's Dance: Tennessee

With design details that could inspire a love ballad – we're in Nashville after all – this breathtaking home has appeared in a Super Bowl commercial and a Luke Bryant music video, among others. It's not hard to see why it's made such a rumble with the rich and famous – from the Little Mermaid clamshell by the swimming pool to the silk-draped beds fit for Sleeping Beauty, a stay here is like stepping into a Disney movie. Downstairs, a temperature-controlled wine cellar, with exposed brick walls and suits of armour, shouts French chateau, while the numerous upstairs living rooms are warmed by roaring fires. The fairy tale continues in the grounds – push open the French doors of the private verandas to see deer sipping from the nearby pond and endless hiking trails extending out into the adjoining park. It goes without saying that there's oodles of space for a large group, but those who want a little privacy can retreat to the guest apartment or stay in the on-site cottage.

Home truths:
*The swimming pool is not fenced in, so small children will need to be kept an eye on
*Don't use the towels to clean off your make-up as there's an extra linen fee if you do
*There is a guest suite upstairs which may be used as staff accommodation or for additional guests
