Holiday Home Ownership in partnership with Paused.club
Hampshire Hills: Redefining Luxury Holiday Home Ownership, Just One Hour from London
Hampshire Hills — the flagship development within the Paused.club portfolio — is entering its most exciting chapter yet. Late summer marks a major milestone with the release of our first luxury holiday home plots and show home(s).
A New Standard: Custom‑Designed Holiday Homes
Buyers at Hampshire Hills can appoint their own architects and interior designers to create a holiday home that reflects their personal lifestyle, aesthetic, and long‑term needs.
Our estate design guidelines ensure harmony with the surrounding countryside while still giving owners full creative control. They simply require:
- External wood cladding to blend into the landscape
- Energy‑saving technology integrated intelligently into the home
- Consideration of place‑setting to ensure comfort in all seasons — including cooling capability during heatwaves
This approach allows owners to create homes that are not only beautiful, but also future‑proofed, sustainable, and deeply personal.
Designing for Everyone: Neurodiversity & Accessibility
Custom design unlocks opportunities to create holiday homes that cater to neurodiversity, sensory needs, and full accessibility for all. Whether that means quiet zones, adaptable lighting, step‑free layouts, or calming biophilic interiors, Hampshire Hills empowers buyers to design spaces that genuinely support wellbeing.
A Rare Opportunity: Luxury Living Close to London
To understand the uniqueness of Hampshire Hills, it helps to compare it with other premier gated holiday residence communities:
THE LAKES by yoo — Gloucestershire (c. 2 hours from London)
Silverlake Estate by Habitat First Group — Dorset (c. 2.5 hours from London)
Koto at The Point — Cornwall (c. 5 hours from London)
Holiday homes in these communities are typically available to purchase at prices from £700k to £4.5m, with annual levies between £8k and £25k.
Hampshire Hills offers a similar calibre of architecture, nature immersion, and estate management — but with dramatically better proximity to London.
A uniquely magical arrival
Travel from London Waterloo to Alton, then step aboard the historic Watercress Line for a steam train journey through prime Hampshire countryside for the final leg. You’ll arrive at Ropley Station, just 500 metres from Hampshire Hills — a journey that feels like entering another world.
Phase 1 Release — launching late Summer 2026
Full details of Phase 1 plots, the first show homes, pricing (likely from £450k to £850k +), design options, estate services, and ownership pathways will be released first to those who have registered at www.Paused.club.
This is a rare opportunity to secure a luxury holiday home in a gated, award‑winning countryside estate within an hour of London.
We will also be offering a range of concierge services including pre & post stay cleaning & washing of bedding/towels – to enable guests to enjoy maximum holiday time without those hassles.
Visit www.Paused.club for further information and to track our progress.
