‘House of the Dragon’ may seem like an unlikely place to get travel inspo, bearing in mind every Westeros location seems riddled with murder, scheming and assorted other nastiness you wouldn’t want to have to deal with on holiday
However, one location from HBO’s ‘Game of Thrones’ may be about to become fantasy fans’ dream holiday spot.
St Michael's Mount in Cornwall, England’s answer to Mont-Saint-Michel, was used as the location for High Tide on the island of Driftmark, the ancestral seat of the Velaryon family – and you can now rent an ultra-luxe holiday home overlooking it.
Ednovean House is a six-bedroomed, dog-friendly property that sleeps 14 and boasts views straight off the pages of a George RR Martin book. The craggy St Michael's Mount is only a wildfire catapult’s lob away across a narrow causeway, for anyone keen on the full set-jetting experience.
The house is situated in Marazion, a Cornish town known for its picturesque walking routes, seafood restaurants and sandy beaches.
The only downside is that the hire will burn a dragon-sized hole in your pocket. The property is bookable via the Perfect Stays website and will set you back £6,950 for seven nights in high season.
