Description
Our aim
The Landmark Trust is a building preservation charity, founded in 1965 by Sir John and Lady Smith. It was established to rescue historic and architecturally interesting buildings and their surroundings from neglect and, when restored, to give them new life by letting them for holidays.
Our aim is to promote enjoyment of such places by enabling as many people as possible to experience living in them for a short time. The letting income this generates then pays for the buildings’ future maintenance. As a charity, Landmark relies on voluntary sources of income to rescue more buildings and needs your support. Please visit Supporting Landmark for further information.
All Landmarks are remarkable
All Landmarks are remarkable in some way, for their architecture, history or setting. All have been chosen because they needed our help and because we believe you will enjoy staying in them, whether for a fortnight or a weekend. Some are for just two people, others are for twelve or more. Some are surrounded by open countryside or a landscape garden; others lie in the heart of an historic city. Full details of all our buildings are only available in the Landmark Trust Handbook. We intend to add information on all our Landmarks available for holidays to our Website in the future.
