The current owners have turned a large open area on the ground floor into a yoga studio with views of the courtyard garden.

It features gorgeous walled gardens, as well as 188 acres of Estate Woodland and a further 26 acres of productive grassland.

The property site said a historic gem has taken the number one spot as the most popular home to have an online tour around.

Colleen Babcock, property expert at Rightmove, said: "From a stiletto-shaped bathtub abode in Conwy to a restored historic church in Bradford, this year's most viewed homes so far on Rightmove highlight the unique charm and diversity of the UK housing market. With the UK's largest choice of homes, there's a home to meet any unique requirement on Rightmove, from historic estates to modern mega-mansions. It's no wonder that home seekers spent over 16.4 billion minutes on our platform last year, exploring these incredible properties." Historic house in Conwy, north Wales This intriguing Grade II listed residence is just a short walk from the impressive castle and historic quayside. Described by estate agents Dafydd Hardy, Llandudno, as a most fascinating and intriguing Grade II* Listed residence, it appears that visitors to Rightmove in the first six months of 2025 agreed. The original single-storey house was dendrochronologically dated to the winter of 1441-42, and since then it has retained its overall 16th century form with 18th century additions and alteration, Wales Online reports. The listing states that the house as seen today is predominantly dated 1589 and built by John Birchdall, vicar of Conwy 1569-1607 and his initials, and those of his wife, Elizabeth, are on a stone tablet within the property. The property was gutted and renovated between 2008 and 2015 and while unique features such as the bathtub were included, the owners made sure to revive its historic features too. The house also has a walled garden - and a section of the wall was part of the original town boundaries. Restored church in Bradford, West Yorkshire Rightmove revealed that another of its most-viewed properties is a restored church in the village of Denholme, Bradford. Built in 1846, this Grade II listed building has open plan living, arched windows, a spiral staircase, and the original bell tower. The current owners have turned a large open on the ground floor into a yoga studio with views of the courtyard garden. There is also a private graveyard, which the public can get access to at the owner's discretion. Country estate in Yorkshire There is also a magnificent country estate, nestled on the edge of the Yorkshire Dales National Park. At its heart lies a historic 14th-century Grade I listed castle and an East Wing that has successfully operated as a wedding venue. The property features walled gardens, 188 acres of Estate Woodland and 26 acres of productive grassland. Buyers can purchase the property as a whole or as separate lots. Mansion in Caldy, The Wirral Situated on a secluded plot in the heart of Caldy on the Wirral Peninsula is a luxurious modern mega-mansion which spans over 12,000 square feet and offers five bedrooms, five bathrooms, and a leisure complex.

Major European holiday destination will let Brits use e-gates to avoid queues
UK passport holders can now skip lengthy waits to get their documents stamped at the airport in Sofia, Bulgaria by using the e-gates system as part of the new deal EU-UK deal Holidaymakers heading to Bulgaria will be able to avoid nightmare queues this summer as e-gates are rolled out to Brits. UK passport holders can now skip lengthy waits to get their documents stamped at the airport in Sofia by using the quicker e-gates system. Last year, nearly half a million Brits visited the popular holiday destination. It comes after Keir Starmer sealed a deal with the EU last month, which agreed there would be no legal barriers to allowing British travellers to use e-gates abroad. Since Brexit, UK passport holders have generally had to queue for manual checks at border control. But under the pact, the EU has agreed to ease checks universally on British travellers. EU Relations Minister Nick Thomas-Symonds told the Mirror: 'Today's eGates win is great news for Brits travelling to the EU – and a clear sign of the Government's pragmatic reset of our relationship with Brussels and European capitals.' Keir Starmer hails 'common sense' deal with EU as a 'win-win' - with boosts for shoppers and tourists Faro Airport, in Portugal, was the first to start the rollout last month, with cities like Paris, Lisbon and Rome following suit. More countries are set to follow suit, with Tallin, in Estonia pencilled in for next year. The Government has faced criticism over the pace of the rollout of e-gates after the Prime Minister initially said it would apply immediately. However the EU plans to launch its new Entry/Exit System (EES) in October 2025, which will scrap the requirement for non-EU citizens to have their passports stamped. It is thought that more European airports will allow Brits to use the e-gates after this new system is brought in. The full list of airports with confirmed e-gate access Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport Paris Orly Airport Bordeaux–Mérignac Airport EuroAirport Basel Mulhouse Freiburg Marseille Provence Airport Lyon–Saint-Exupéry Airport Nice Airport Eurostar Paris Gare du Nord Terminal Eurostar London St Pancras Terminal Eurotunnel Folkestone Terminal Eurotunnel Calais Terminal Port of Calais Alicante Mallorca Tenerife Lanzarote Egates Gran Canaria Ibiza Naples Airport Rome Fiumicino Airport Rome Ciampino Airport Bologna Guglielmo Marconi Airport Venice Marco Polo Airport Cagliari Airport Milan Malpensa Airport Milan Linate Airport Bari Airport Brindisi Airport Bergamo Airport Treviso Airport Verona Villafranca Airport Florence Airport Pisa International Airport Turin Airport Olbia Costa Smeralda Airport Catania Airport Palermo Airport Lisbon Airport Terminal 1 Faro Airport Amsterdam Airport Schiphol (exit only) Larnaca International Airport Paphos International Airport Brussels airport Budapest Ferenc Liszt International Airport Dublin airport Prague airport Terminal 1 Helsinki airport

Why you should get your holiday euros now - but hold off buying US dollars amid the Trump tariff turmoil
Tourists risk losing hundreds off their spending money by picking the wrong time to buy currency. Exchange rates continually see-saw, but this year the volatility is especially heightened thanks to sweeping US trade policies that affect markets around the world. Currency experts here reveal when they think you should buy to get the best deals. Get euros now If you're jetting off to Europe in the next month, buy euros as soon as possible, says Tony Redondo, founder of Cosmos Currency Exchange. The euro has been strengthening against the pound in recent weeks – meaning each £1 won't go so far – and there is likely to be more to come. It has benefited from US tariff policy, which has made investors nervous about buying dollars. Money has instead flooded into European investments, which have been seen as a safer option in an uncertain climate. That has pushed up the value of the euro – not only against the dollar, but sterling as well. The pound could weaken further against the euro due to a poor economic outlook in the UK. Last week there was a sharp drop in the pound's value following unexpectedly dire official data, which revealed the economy shrank by 0.3 pc in April. This could force the Bank of England to cut rates as soon as August, which could spell further bad news for our currency. Mr Redondo says: 'Until last week, the view in the markets was for the Bank of England to cut interest rates maybe one more time in 2025. This week has changed that, with two cuts now forecast.' Hold off dollars Heading to Disney World during the school holidays? You're in luck as you can currently get $41 more than you could last June for the same £500. Simon Phillips, at travel money firm No 1 Currency, explains that while the UK's weak economy is contributing to the pound's underperformance against the euro, the pound's strength against the US dollar is being driven by President Trump. On Friday the dollar sank to its lowest in three years against a basket of currencies as his trade policy continues to cause disruption and uncertainty. Plus, there are growing expectations the Federal Reserve will cut US interest rates, which will trigger an outflow of investment as individuals pull their money in search of higher returns. Prem Raja, of Currencies 4 You, suggests holding off buying dollars until nearer your time of travel – especially as Mr Trump has floated the possibility of an extension to the 90-day tariff pause. He says: 'If we keep getting tariff extensions and volatility, the pound will perform well against the dollar.' Analysts at Goldman Sachs agree. They believe the dollar's weakness will continue due to uncertainty from policies such as the tariffs – while both the euro and pound are set to benefit. Best of both because no one knows for certain what will happen to rates, one way to exchange your currency is to 'hedge your bets', Mr Phillips says. 'We can't work out what's going to happen, particularly with President Trump in charge. So buy some currency now and buy some later,' he says. 'You'll never get all your money at the best rate, but you won't get the worst, either.' Where to buy bureaus offer different rates so shop around. Think about your travel money before arriving at the airport – passengers often pay a premium rate at the gates. Also, don't rely on cards all the time when abroad, especially after the power outage in Spain and Portugal which left households unable to pay for items on a card machine. Plus, cash is still king in many parts of Europe. Think about a mix of both cash and card. If using a debit or credit card, choose one with no foreign transaction fees. Options include Starling and First Direct. Pre-paid cards are also an option. This way you can lock in an exchange rate ahead of time if you want certainty, unlike with a regular credit or debit card. Options include the Wise card, which costs £7 to order.
