The Cottage That Inspired Christmas Classic ‘The Holiday’ Is Up For Sale

The cottage behind the charming English countryside home in the film The Holiday is up for sale.

This means you can now live in a house which looks just like Kate Winslet's whimsical house.

Iris' exact home - named Rosehill Cottage - doesn't actually exist as the exterior was built for the film and the interior shots were filmed on-set.

However, producer Nancy Meyers' vision for the cottage was actually inspired by Honeysuckle Cottage in the village of Holmbury St Mary near Dorking.

Rosehill Cottage was the place where the romance between Cameron Diaz and Jude Law blossomed after Amanda swapped her swanky Hollywood mansion with Iris.

Fans of the film can now own their very own romantic cottage, but we hate to ruin your dreams as this one unfortunately doesn't come with your own Jude Law.

The three-bedroom property is on sale for £650,000 with the exterior of the property being almost identical to the cottage from the film.

There is an adorable picket fence and arched porch similar to Iris' cottage from the rom-com.

Inside the cottage does look notably different to the one in the film as, but it's still super cosy and just as charming.

There are exposed beams, a very cosy looking fireplace and a country style kitchen complete with an old fashioned stove.

The description reads: "A stunning extended period cottage with ironstone galleting and brick quoins under a tiled roof complemented by leaded light windows.

"The property retains many character features including an inglenook fireplace with Jotul log burner and exposed timbers.

"Features of particular note include the bespoke craftsmen-built hand-painted kitchen with oil fired AGA, underfloor heating to the ground floor and an extensive use of oak joinery throughout.

"The property enjoys delightful landscaped gardens which incorporates an extensive area of flagstone laid terrace with lovely views."

If you're not looking for a new home, don't worry as you can still get your The Holiday fix this winter as Netflix has added the film to its streaming service along with Love Actually.
