Description Dancing In The Moonlight: Los Angeles

Pour yourself a drink from the bar, settle into the Jacuzzi, and you'll find yourself overlooking the twinkling lights of LA. In a peaceful spot in the hills, you'll be tucked away from the traffic but just a short drive from Beverly Hills (twenty minutes), Hollywood (twenty minutes) and the Getty Museum (ten minutes).

This Spanish-style villa has a tropical feel, thanks to the huge pool surrounded by towering palm trees. Inside, it's an opulent space with a sweeping staircase, plenty of luxurious soft furnishings and elegant styling. Two of the bedrooms open to a private balcony with views across the valley and the city – the dream spot for a morning cup of coffee.

There's a fabulous kitchen perfect for whipping up meals at home, or why not grill up a feast on the gas barbecue or Kamado smoker outside? Meanwhile, children (and the young at heart) will be kept busy playing tennis or basketball on your private court, working out on the gym equipment or enjoying games in the home's playful surf shack.
